I'm torn on if the writer is crazy, it's a joke letter, or the dude cheated on her and rather than dump his rear end she gave him an insane list of directions.

Crazy girls use Apple products so the maker of that probably used whatever the mac equivalent of word is, where you can insert smileys directly from a drop-down menu or something. IDK, but those are definitely mac/iPhone smileys.

she is crazy even if he cheated on her

also, "you cheated on me, so part of your rules are that you can't ask me for oral" is a very bad plan

"Don't ask for head" is basically her saying they're breaking up. It's so he'll end it and she can say she tried to fix it.

Emojis are characters in the unicode spec. They're shown using fonts like any other characters. Any text editor that supports unicode & fonts should be able to display and print them (which would be most these days).

The list of demands actually doesn't sound so bad if you imagine she just found out he was a serial killer. Asking for head could take on a whole new meaning.

Each emoji has a code point in unicode, a standard for text. This is a reference number, usually in hexidecimal - our pal 🤔 is 0x1f914. Various programs let you convert one to the other. So long as your font supports the given character, you can use them just like normal ASCII text.

There's no difference, really, between 'b' and β and 🤔 and 💩.

Why? I can't answer that.

There's even some programming oriented fonts with crazy ligatures. In applications that support it != turns into ≠ and => into ⇒. Both characters are still there, but only one glyph is shown.

Dude stuffed the list in his glovebox and sold the whole car rather than deal with it ever again, and I can't say I blame him.

A couple of them like "You are not to get mad at me about a single thing ever again" or the one where he has to silently turn and walk away if a girl talks to him under any circumstances make it sound like a joke letter to me but if so it's not a very funny joke

I think I'm leaning toward "insane person is cheated on but seizes the opportunity to set up the controlling abusive relationship she always wanted"

That note seems pretty par for the course for a popular teenage girl to write, after consulting with her group of friends. Of course, if you spent your teenage years masturbating alone in your rooms and playing video games, you likely missed that part of junior high culture.
