Pop that emoji champagne, a new era of emoticons has arrived!

This is the stuff dreams are made of, people. The iOS 9.1 update comes with a slew of happy new emojis for your everyday needs, according to Emojipedia.

Previously dying to express your views on the dangers of fracking? Now you can with the very relevant "oil drum" emoji. 

Do you collect mahogany timepieces from the early 1800's but don't know how to tell your friends? The "mantlepiece clock" lets you break the news with ease.

Craving Chipotle but stifled as to which of the (roughly) 9,000 intricate Japanese dishes best represent your guac-laden desires? Those are troubles of the past, dear one. The handy burrito emoji is your new lord and savior. 

We could go on but, to be honest, this update left a lot more emojis to be desired in our opinion. As the beacon of pop culture that we are, we felt compelled to present our desires for the next emoji update. Apple, if you're reading this, please get back to us ASAP with your thoughts. 

How entranced were we by Drake's hypnotic "Hotline Bling moves?" So much so that we believe his range of beautifully bizarre poses deserves his own page of emojis. We know when that hotline blings, it can only mean one thing: It's high time Apple boarded the Drake train.

We've got a pizza and a rat but no Pizza Rat. Please advise.

We're considerably confused as to why the people over at emoji-land haven't put their efforts into making a selfie smiley. We've already got, like, 30 different varieties of hands and phones, so why not merge the two and make us happy? Throw in a selfie stick while you're at it too. C'mon, people, know your target market. 

Forget the tired-ass taco everyone's been hyped about, we need a full set of McDonald's all-day breakfast emojis. Think about it. How romantic would it be if in the middle of your text fight with BAE they sent over a tiny hashbrown and a rose? Our little emoji pants couldn't come off faster.

We can't imagine any family who deserves their own posse of emojis more than those trusty Tanners. Things getting heated in group chat? Have mercy! Throw out a casual Uncle Jesse and watch textual morale instantly improve.

The fact that making a Bey-moji hasn't even hit their radar is problematic to say the very least. We like to think they're still in the development stages of her pixilated prototype. Here's how it should look: gorgeous flowing curls, fierce face, crown. Boom. You're-welcome emoji. 

How does the "Man in Business Suit Levitating" emoji make you feel? Lend us your thoughts in the comments. 

Speak of the devil, The Soup made The Emoji Movie that you need to see.
