Smils

Paragon of typically unflappable debonairability spiral_meter admitted in a recent blog post,  "My smile isn't always a smile. Sometimes it's an unintelligible expression that only causes confusion."

Ha! I learned a new word. "Debonair." Of course, I dont understand exactly why a smile is an unintelligible expression. Dogs are pretty honest with their smiles. Human beings, I suppose, less so or why they would cause confusion.

Sometimes one can start to smile, but it doesn't fully form and instead looks like a sneer, a leer, a grimace, or a snarl, or that befuddled, vacant, anticipatory look someone sometimes gets when passing gas.

Lets get married.

Unless you're a twenty-something 5'9" blonde woman with legs that go for miles, who is equally comfortable at minor league baseball games and art exhibit openings, and who possesses a well-polished ennui that can only come from years of idle pleasure financed from a steady and unending stream of monies from a trust fund, I'm afraid I'm going to have to decline.

But we can still be friends. * offers hand to shake *

I'd love to see whether this was a fixed look, or a pre-snarl. He is a cute 12-14 month old lion.

It's hard for a lion to take a bad picture. ;)

Haha that's a pretty terrifying smile.

[blue_aardvark]

But in the cutest possible way. ;)

I like the lioness' cowlick!

And makes me wish I had teeth that could show like fangs...jealous. *pout*

That's a young male lion, Mel!!!!!

Fangs would be useful, I agree, if one could avoid biting one's tongue. There are many people that could use a playful though corrective nip (including you, Mel, for thinking my lion avatar was a girl!) ;)

Pfft. Your dude looks like a lady. (I'm gonna put some pink lipstick on him. Ha! Paul. Ha!)
