Emoji pool floats will help you properly express yourself this summerUPDATE: July 8, 2016, 2:52 p.m. EDT Received comment from Nate Schmiedehaus at Thrice about pool float order statuses. Attention technology lovers: you can finally enjoy your favorite emoji while swimming. Emoji pool floats have arrived to fill the hole in our hearts that appears whenever we have to put down our phones to hop in the pool.

You need to make room in your suitcase for these emoji pool floatsWe know going on holiday is increasingly about taking a break from the internet and embracing nature. But can't we meet in the middle? Can't we enjoy all the things the world has to offer... and enjoy some technology-based references? That's all we're after.

Emoji Pool Floats Are Basically The Best Things EverMove over swan float, there's a new and cooler way to lounge in the pool for summer 2016. If you're pretty much only using the sunglasses smiley face emoji all summer long, I feel you, and this pool float manufacturer does, too.

👋 Hey everyone, and thanks for the upvotes! I'm super excited today to launch my unicorn 🦄💫, a new line of emoji-inspired pool floats, with Product Hunt! 🎉🎈 I created these giant Emoji Pool Floats because swan and donut floats are so 2015, and is it really summer if there's no new pool float to Instagram yourself on?🤔 I think not.

@schmiedehaus I own a pool supplies e-commerce business in Australia. Looking for resellers? Selling to the southern hemisphere would make your business less seasonal :)

Just wondering if you thought about copyright with these products? I was researching a similar idea, but ended up discarding it because Apple actually own these emojis. In theory you could get sued. Or did you get permission?

@vriparbelli Does anyone have any actual sources of this happening? I've seen similar comments around other emoji based products but have never actually seen or heard of Apple taking action.

@mattyxb Nope, haven't found any lawsuits. Just curious if the maker talked to Apple beforehand. Would suck to get struck by lightning...

@vriparbelli discussion and links https://www.reddit.com/r/Entrepr... also see https://github.com/emojidex/emoj... but don't directly copy the Apple ones because yes they are copyright. The IDEA of any given emoji is open but exact images are copyright unless open source as mentioned in the links earlier.

@vriparbelli I also thought of a similar idea and did not move forward because of copyright. @andydentperth answers seems to point to discussions that prove that it is in fact illegal and you could have trouble when you scale.

I'm honestly more interested in the fact that I can apparently buy this through PH. Is this the first thing to be able to do so? Is part of the future of PH e-commerce? Can a 'system of record' act in that dual capacity?

@rrhoover How delightful. Somehow missed all of that. I feel like a regular at a bar who missed a birthday or something.
