Perfecting the face...it's important

Have you perfected "the face"? It is very important to have just the right look on your face to be sure your non-verbal communication come across correctly. There is nothing worse than shooting someone your "You are gross get away from me face" and them thinking you are sending them your "I think you're cute face."

Let's demonstrate:
Can you guess what these are saying?

This is the "Whatever! I'm rolling my eyes at you" look. Get this one down for the dumb people you deal with daily.  [updated 6/25/15] This face is also good for those people you can't stand talking to and you just want to hang up.

This is the "Are you kidding me? Are you really going to pop your gum all the way to work?" look. Also good for the "Seriously, they make headphones so I don't have to listen to that." Lastly can also be used for the "what you talkin bout willis" when again dealing with inferior beings.

This one is very important. This is the "Seriously are you trying to hit me with your car!" look. I use this on frequently in the streets of downtown LA. Can be also used to exclaim "WTF!" Very useful face, you must master this one. [updated 6/25/15] Also used for the "DAMNIT I am stuck with this person for the rest of my life!" realization that you just had.

This is the "Sure dude" look. Can be inter-changeable as the "Yep sure, buddy I'll get right on that for you, NOT!" look. Oh and don't forget you can use this to say "WHATEVA!"

This one is sometimes confusing. Some people may take this look as you are saying "I don't have anyone to talk to so I am burying my face in a paper" look or "I am a very interesting and literate person, talk to me". However, what you are really trying saying is "I don't want to talk to you" or "I love people but I have my own problems I don't want to hear yours" BE VERY CAREFUL with this look.

This one says, "don't move another muscle" or "I already said it once!" or also good for "Are you you kidding me kid???"  I use this one frequently at home.

WARNING: THIS FACE IS POWERFUL! Here you are saying "Wow, he's cute! So I'll give him a second look." Now you have to be very careful with this face, as sometimes the person you are looking at catches you or even worse, someone you find revolting thinks it was meant for them. I use this face very sparingly...but it does work trust me.

I could go on for days on this subject, but I think you get my drift. Start perfecting your faces now...they will take you far. If you need help with a certain look, just comment on this blog post and I'll be sure to help you out.

Remember, if it is unladylike, fattening or fun, I'm in!
