@asharawilson: Historic additions to the zeitgeist 🤪

PhancyPants🆘🇺🇸 :

I love you saying what you said about the awkward smile! I’ve seen soooo many videos calling it a micro aggression. IT IS NOT AT ALL THAT! It’s an awkward smile to say “sorry we made eye contact” 🤣🤣🤣…yet here we are 😜

Gluteus Maximus the cat :

I’m glad you get the intention behind the weird smile we do. It’s a way of saying “I’m friendly but not THAT friendly.” 😂

Ramble Tam :

We do that smile instinctively too, nobody ever taught it to us it's just in our blood 😭

daniellenicki :

Number 1 has helped me survive every job I’ve ever had

so.im.amanda :

I love the white person half smile. It feels so millennial coded. Like we are both too tired to deal with human interaction but we don’t want to appear rude.

..hteb :

Gotta click your tongue with the finger guns

Maria :

You'd be a great white dad

KariBose :

finger guns give every sentence a lil razzle dazzle

Kenan :

With the "tightened lips" move, add a "raised eyebrows" and slight upward head tilt and you've got a non commital "hey there neighbor! no i do not want to talk"

Kory Kaltenberg :

While wearing a Carhartt shirt. Another 10% cooler.

crilenoir :

Add the finger gun to the Mona Lisa smile and you have an ambiguous entrance/exit to or from any situation

GonkGnome :

"hello fellow human i acknowledge your existence and the struggle your day has probably alreay been...i can relate" also...the finger guns are underrated.

PancakePractice :

The lip thing is the best. 'I see you, but also I have no desire to communicate, but not because I don't like you, but because neither of us want to do this.' 10/10, everyone should adopt it.

Momma Duck :

feels like cultural appreciation to me because you nailed these explanations of our culture 🥹

Pat :

Finger guns is like adding an emoji 😂

BOTE :

I love the tiny smile.

365buttons :

this ain't appropriation this is appreciation

Ron Bison :

With the finger guns, if you pause before the end of the sentence and do finger guns before finishing the sentence, that's the pro move: "I just got went to the doctor's and got a colonoscopy. They told me everything's" *pew pew* "all clear."

kurganthetank :

Finally, a black person who gets the white person “half smile-nod” gesture! Your interp is spot on.

burkenstop :

omg that is exactly what the quick smile thing is

bethany Haworth :

Add a quick snap right before the finger guns and it’s more fun 😂

mystery man :

i just knew I was gonna be able to trust this message.

Kia.Orana.Dawn :

I cal that “smile” the courtesy smile.
