Yes, my real smile makes people think that i'm going to kill them in their sleep(darn, they figured out my plan! . . . ) But it's a great way to make people leave me alone . . .
i don't smile like any of them...mine is too terrifying for me to even see...when i happen to pass a mirror while smiling, i usually become temporarily comatose. man, i want that poncho!
I look exactly like that first panel when i smile. Ever since i first saw this comic I always say "I am genuinely delighted" when I fake a smile for pictures.
This is one of the first I ever saw on this site and still my favorite, partially because I remember having to work it out for myself. If I pay attention, I can manage a smile like panel 2, if I just let loose and grin unselfconsciously it's panel 3.

My favorite Instruction ever. Now all I have to do is think, "Your hide will make a fine poncho!" and there's a smile on my face....

This is the funniest thing I've seen for weeks!!! I cried laughing!
the third one made me laugh
i have a cross of the first one's eyes and the third one's mouth
which makes me look
quite frankly, a disgustingly scary looking girl :<
my real smile is brought out by thinking of that time i pulled a girl off the bus by her hair and kicked her butt... very, very good times
Still my absolute favourite!! My co-workers are worried about my state of mind though, ever since I posted it on my office door...
This comic made me smile :)
I get this all the time: "Why don't you smile in pictures?"
Uh... I was...
Pure genius. I can't look at one panel in this strip without giggling like a school girl. This is a true masterpiece.
