^ this is ok, but his bottom lip needs to be pushing up against the top one a bit more.

is this also the "i'm a man and i'm trying to choke back tears" look?

i saw a photo of Mikheil Saakashvili that was a primo example of this, but can't find it anywhere.

sometimes, sometimes it's just bemusement.

the eliot spitzer one is classic, bill too

it's like when smug backfires and turns inward on itself

in the spitzer one he looks like he's trying to actually suck his face into itself, thus making it disappear (and it seems like it's almost working!)

in the first few, the corners of the mouth are going down, which indicates disappointment
in the last two, the corners are going up, which indicates...sheepishness?
not the same

I'd pull that face if I turned into an oompa-loompa too.

ha ha no-one can ever find that. i myself had to grab it from youtube a few weeks back. football is a goldmine for this face yes.

Yeah, you can get loads of Gazza crying but Lineker's (rather touching) response, no!

They're feeling it in Illinois today:

Meet the small but mighty pygmy marmoset. One of the smallest primates in the world, this species weighs less than five ounces when fully mature. Pygmy marmosets are gumnivores, which means their diet consists of sap and gum from trees. pic.twitter.com/JYw9k1BGzC

Oh I see, you have to be a gumnivore to be able to make this facial expression

I get a little jolt of joy every time I see this thread's been updated, knowing that I'll get to see some loser making 'this facial expression'. Thread delivers with interest today!

Looks like he takes a drink, as they say in Scotland.

He looks like a cunt, as we say in Tottenham

I don't really know how to screenshot it but Tim Walz is giving a LOT of this facial expression

it's kind of his go-to expression

https://thehill.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/walztim_070324gn03_w.jpg

It's not ashamed tho imo

yeah doesn't have the same 'mistakes were made' passive tense vibe

looks more like inwardness & absorption in thought. it's where his eyes are looking

it's weird how so many of you can't accurately recognize this facial expression

because that's like 10%. walz is just looking vaguely stern

this guy (whoever he is) is actually doing it. it's not enough to lack an upper lip; you need to have one and fucking bite it until it disappears!

https://dynaimage.cdn.cnn.com/cnn/digital-images/org/84c3b3a9-3a21-40d4-a658-a4baf091b9a5.jpg

Yeah, the expression isn't just "unsmiling, mouth closed". It's "welp, I fucked up".

walz expression is "mistakes were made -- BY YOU!"

mookie otm

I claim Walz was actually doing it during the rally even though he's not really doing it in that picture.

And I read it as much more a pure "welp," not necessarily "welp, I fucked up," can just as easily be "welp, I guess that's how it is" but it has to be "welp," I agree

Not sure if someone can do the dark arts to make the photo appear in the thread. It’s probably the saddest one I’ve seen in a long time.

the person who posted it made her account private.

was it this one?

https://www.usatoday.com/gcdn/authoring/authoring-images/2024/11/06/USAT/76097434007-20241106-t-212744-z-218453480-hp-1-ekb-61-nm-68-r-rtrmadp-3-usaelectionharris.JPG?crop=2537,1428,x0,y108&width=660&height=371&format=pjpg&auto=webp

imo hard to say it's tfe when his sentiment is real unlike all the weiners and others who were caught with their pants down

this one?

but yeah not quite the same when guilt isn't involved.
