AB squared in orange marks blood type AB, the rarest of the four types in Japan's ketsueki-gata blood-type personality typing. It fills roughly one in ten people, rarer than A, B, or O, and gets tagged as the unpredictable one that mixes both parent types' traits. Elsewhere it's just plain shorthand for anything labeled AB.
What π means
A capital 'A' and 'B' painted in white onto a glossy red square with blunt corners and sides. The π AB Button (Blood Type) emoji indicates the 'AB' blood group, both the negative and positive aspects of it.
How and when to use it
- The double-initial style of π makes it a great logo, to begin with. If your name and your surname, your brand, or even the initials of a couple, etc., begin with 'A' and 'B' respectively, you could use π to represent the same.
- The π blood type is an amalgam of the π °οΈ A Blood Type and the π ±οΈ B Blood Type; essentially, the blood child of the two. Although there are other individual possibilities for such a union, π can easily signify a 'blood union'. For instance, "We unite by blood at the human level π".
- Besides, π is a universal recipient; meaning, it can receive blood from any blood type. If you're figuratively referring to this ability to grasp, contain and receive, π might be a smart emoji. For example, "Be quick to give, not to take π" (whoops, sorry, π blood group).
- π is a blessing in the context of blood donations. If you're sharing a personal post, repost, requesting the donation of this blood type, use π. It helps boiling out all confusion regarding the type of blood donation.
