How Very Relatable!

(Another illustration post...) As far as I'm concerned, Kris has really made a break through with this!

I understand that this illustration has been taking the Internet by storm.. and I realise you're likely to have already seen it. But, when I came across it at the weekend, I grinned to myself like a Cheshire cat. I relate oh so very well.. There's nothing worse than having an interfering character muttering those words, 'Cheer up Love!'

Equally as irritating; when friends or acquaintances instruct one to 'SMILE!' An occasion which always leads to a polite grimace and a nauseated feeling.

    Heh, chronic bitch face. I know of some people with this affliction, but in my secret opinion, I think it's because they are like that on the inside too. Whoop!

    Have a great day!

    Ha ha, I love it. It's just as bad as,"You don't look well today" or " You look tired". Neither are polite to say :)

    A complete stranger told me to smile on a sidewalk in NYC. I thought to myself, "He has no idea what my situation is. What if I had just heard some bad news, or something awful had just happened in my life?" People really should think before they speak!
    Anyway, love the art work!! :)

    HAHA I love this! I have the opposite. I would smile at the wall. I know a lot of people with chronic bitch face, but once they start talking, they're actually nice. Approaching them is quite scary though haha.

    "What's wrong?" Well, nothing was wrong, but now I'm kind of annoyed that you asked...

    oh this is so perfect! I can't tell you how many times I've gotten that comment - or its "You look so tired..." when I'm just walking down the office hallway. I've been wearing more pink and yellow to help combat those comments:) This is adorable and it's the first time I saw it!
