Most of us have an emoji that we consider our spirit animal. (If you don't know what yours is, take this quiz [1] ASAP.) Since it seemed appropriate, we shot the question to the Silicon Valley cast members [2], currently starring in season two. Turns out, there's one that pretty much sums up their souls — both on and off screen.

"I know there's one that's a pile of sh*t, right?" said Martin Starr, who plays Gilfoyle. "The poo one — that's definitely mine. Because he's smiling." Same for Kumail Nanjiani, aka Dinesh ("I think that's very profound. We're all pieces of sh*t, but some of us are smiling"), and for Thomas Middleditch, who you know as Richard.

We didn't interview T.J. Miller (Erlich), but the only one who had a different answer was Zach Woods (Jared). "Is there one who looks slightly distracted and a little sad? One reading a book and not paying attention to the book because he's being too hard on himself?"

No, Zach, there isn't. You'll have to settle for the pile of poo, too.
