Undo and prevent emoji in Jira

Question

I pasted in a code snippet to a Jira comment that got emoji-ized.  How do I turn it off?

Adding spaces between the : and the P is not an acceptable solution because I am discussing a bug between "Category:People" and "Category: People".

to add on what @Michael Wohlgemuth posted, you can use

text
{noformat}{noformat}

and read about text formatting here:
