Alright, so let’s just get this out of the way. Having a resting b**ch face ain’t that big of a deal! Well, at least not as big of a deal that people tend to make it. Truth be told, all of us know someone who’s mastered the art of the RBF. While they usually seem really hostile, they’re actually pretty amazing people capable of actual and real human emotion, even though their face may not show it. Still, people with an RBF tend to get a lot of random crap thrown their way for it. Here are some of the things that everyone with a resting b**ch face could relate to.
1. You always get asked to smile more.
If I had ten bucks for everytime someone told me to smile more and how smiling is beautiful, I’d be a millionaire. Ok, that might be an exaggeration. Still, all that money would sure as hell give me a reason to smile!
2. People tend to think you’re always pissed off.
There’s a reason you’re told not to poke the bear. Being asked if everything is okay and why you’re pissed off is actually one of the reasons I’m always pissed off. Make sense? Long story short, you, asking me why I’m pissed off is actually the reason I’m pissed off.
3. You’ve most likely been called a judgemental snob.
It’s not me, it’s just my face! I promise! I mean, if we’re really nit-picking, aren’t all humans a tiny bit judgemental? Okay, to be honest, if you don’t judge a book by its cover, you really shouldn’t be judging a person because of their RBF.
4. You often get told how intimidating you are.
This one usually always gets me. I’m a total marshmallow and probably the least intimidating person ever. Ok, I probably am for some people. But, once you get to know me, I’m a total riot and a lot of fun. That’s probably the case for most others with a resting b**ch face. Don’t worry, we usually don’t bite when spoken to.
5. Most people avoid making eye contact with you.
Almost every conversation I have is sans eye contact. I really feel like just yelling, ” look at me, I’m the captain now”, just to screw with them.
6. When you laugh, everyone is shocked.
Me laughing or showing any emotions is considered a historic event amongst my friends. It’s literally brought up in conversations as ‘that time you laughed’. Oddly enough, that actually helps me remember what they’re talking about.
7. When you’re forced to smile, you look borderline psychotic.
While some people’s smile can come across fake, I pretty much look crazy. I’ve often been told that when I smile, a mirror cracks somewhere. That’s putting it mildly. I’ve also been told I look like a serial killer when I smile. So… yeah.
8. People can never really tell if you’re being serious or sarcastic.
I’m just going to leave it on the fact that you’re never going to really know. This one is more of a ‘you’ thing than a ‘me’ thing.
9. Almost every official government photo looks like a mugshot.
From my license to my passport, every single picture looks like I’ve committed a crime or have been forced to take it. Literally, all I need is that little board thingy and voila, got my mugshot ready. Let’s not even get into candid pictures because that’s a whole separate blog!
10. Everyone always seems to tell you that you have a resting b*tch face.
“Has anyone told you that you have a resting b**ch face?” Yes, yes they have! Every single day Sherlock. Go back to solving real mysteries. #Salty
