How to get Emoji in your Ubuntu Terminal
<!--
1. Download the Android Jelly Bean fonts and the Symbola font:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/tvtzcnzkvbe0nrt/jelly-bean-fonts.zip
http://users.teilar.gr/~g1951d/Symbola707.zip
2. unzip the files and put AndroidEmoji.ttf and Symbola.ttf (and any of the other fonts that strike your fancy)
in your ~/.fonts/ directory
3. run `fc-cache -f`. You can check to make sure the new fonts
were installed with `fc-list`. You'll probably want to grep the copious output for Symbola or Emoji
