On McSweeney’s, Susan Harlan rounds up some less-objectionable alternatives we can use to describe so-called “Resting Bitch Face,” such as “Yes I Really Do Just Want to Sit Here and Read My Book Unmolested Face.”
Thanks For Behaving So Predictably Badly Face
Stop Looking At the Clock While I’m Talking Face
This is All a Bunch of Bureaucratic Nonsense Face
You Haven’t Told Me Anything That I Didn’t Already Know Face
I Would Prefer Not to Face
A Smidge of Self-Awareness Would Not Go Amiss Face
The Situations Are Really Not Analogous Face
Please Tip a Bottle of Bourbon Down My Throat Immediately Face
ALTERNATIVES TO RESTING BITCH FACE.
