"smile, zzilla!"

shut up.

maybe i'm busy, or maybe i don't want to smile at you. the stupidest thing is when someone is just sitting there smiling like a nutcase for no apparent reason. or maybe i am smiling, and this is all i can muster up. maybe i'm  stroking out, and this is the start of my bells palsey! (on both sides of my face, i guess)

i think i will start thinking of ways to torture the person who says this next (a la the movie "Hostel") and maybe then i'll smile? i don't see why it matters to others if i am smiling or not.

  • Or, when you barely drag yourself into work, after a migraine day yesterday, a night of crappy sleep, in casual day clothes, and someone wants to take pictures of you for the website. Uh, hellz no. I need warning for that shiot.

  • I get this a lot, from people on the street. I'll just be walking around, minding my own business and trying to get schit done, and some random person will say some bullsh1t like "you'd be so much prettier if you smiled." Get the fluck out of my way you flucking fluck.
  • Random guys who work at the grocery store have told me to smile before.  Yes, I'll just smile my face off like a creep when I'm picking out potatoes.

  • Well didn't you know girls are supposed to be mindless twits with no thoughts other than "how can I make a man happy?" Of course we should always be smiling!

    Grrr. I used to get this a lot. My response was always '"fck off", unless it was a co-worker. Or my mother. They got the finger. Stick out tongue

  • I hate when co-workers tell me that.

    I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
  • my old boss told me I needed to smile more while I was working. Really? While I'm preparing 435 graphs for you, that you're just going to make me re-do? No thanks.

    It's not that I'm unhappy, I just don't smile for no reason. I think I'm normal in that.

  • I usually get the "Why aren't you smiling, because you're always smiling?"

     

    Hey, I have my moments too.

  • I'd be so much prettier if everyone would fuckoff.

  • It's almost always men too...

    always strikes me as the attitude that I"m only supposed to exist as something pretty for them to look at.
