Funny, I see Lionel Barrymore from It's a Wonderful Life, specifically when he says things out the side of his mouth like "Sentimental HOGwash!"

For some of us, smiling just enough so that it neither looks huge and fake nor pissed off is hard. If I were in his place--having to strike that same damn balance for photos again and again and again, schmoozing with people I'm sick of talking to, pretending to seem eager when not so deep down inside I'm thinking, "Great...I have a week more of shit like this. For the love of God, as soon as I get back on the plane, I'm getting a nice big cocktail"--I think I'd eventually start grimacing accidentally-on-purpose. I wasn't aware people are "creepy" unless they have six versions of the same facial expression, and they pull out even if they're posing for pictures with bosses and colleagues, not at a family reunion or someplace a little more relaxed.
I don't care if grinning a lot is part of a politician's job. Is it realistic to expect him to wear UNIQUE (but still convincing) smiles for each picture, especially when he's had flash bulbs popping in his face and he has to keep forcing a facial expression when he might be a little tired? Bet his face hurts.
Yeah, yeah, this is a blog, and you have a posting quota to meet...."lighten up."
Creepy.

"Any time you smile, you contract the zygomatic major, the muscle that runs from the corner of the mouth to the top of your jaw. A smile using the zygomatic major is easy. It's what we use to deliver a fake smile. The customer-service rep smiles like that. You're smiling like that in your driver's-license photo. Ryan Seacrest is smiling like that right now. It's a manufactured smile. You're not lighting up the room."
