The duckface..

[Able Seacat]

It does work sometimes.

Spoiler

It's ok if you greyscale the picture, then it's artisitic!

Too right!

Duck face, black and white, and posing.

The only thing he's missing is the lens flare and bathroom

Watch your tongue!

You speak of the late, great, Freddy Mercury.

What?

Yes, m'lord, I will tolerate the unbelievers.



For now.

I'm afraid you misunderstood, Mr Clarion, I speak no ill of Freddy Mercury.

[HEADING=1]Silence![/HEADING]

In order to repent for your sins against Mercury, you will circumnavigate the globe while carrying a bag of drunken ferrets.

So I sayeth, so it shall be done.

I'll heed to your order, but I'll need a few companions to accompany me.

You must return to me with several rare artifacts.

The giant golden mongoose.
The apple sauce of kings.
The wig-wam off a woofing engine.
The legendary chicken nugget of Mesopotamia.

Err.. but Daystar sir, the legendary chicken nugget of Mesopotamia was already found. It was in your sock draw of imaginarium.

Good, that's one crossed off the list.

I think that, on the right girls and when not done to an extreme degree, it can look really cute.. but I have no idea why the bathroom mirror shot with extreme duckface has been chosen as the default "look at me I'm sexy" picture. I imagine it must have started somewhere and for some reason, but I really have no idea when or why.

 

[someonehairy-ish]

People tend to try too hard and it just makes their faces look ridiculous.


Subtlety, my friends, subtlety.

Is she doing a lamprey impression?

 

[NinjaDeathSlap]

You should start a "You know what really grinds my gears?" section here Sean ^^

OT: I hate that face, I have literally no clue why people find it attractive.

I should, I have so many things to hate :|

I hate guys who do this too.

(He's holding a camera)

This reminded me of the time this dick-head that I know did exactly this, posing in his bathroom, unaware that his collection of porn magazines was visible in the background of his shot.

To this day it remains in the top 5 funniest moments of my life.

Analysis:

Pouting is a fairly basic human expression and the 'duck lips' are it taken to the extreme by the more is better concept (see 'More Dakka').

OH! OH! OH! Can I be the comic relief?

Sure if you want, I need 6 people minimum before I begin my journey..

I shall accompany you on this journey brother. I shall be the Asian guy that each group always has (Born in Australia, but Asians blood and Asians intelligence, I fulfill the role of the Asian and the Useless Aussie!).

Alright then, that's 3 Just three more..

I too will embark on this quest, for I have longed to sail the earth in the company of a bag of ferrets. My past is shrouded in mystery and I am out for nonspecific revenge against an arbitrarily-defined evil.

Also, duckface is stupid.

You don't mind if I steal this pic from you, do you? You don't? Great!

Seriously though, it CAN be cute/sexy if done with subtlety like someone else mentioned earlier. The problem is too many people (both girls and guys) do it as hard as they fucking can and it just comes out stupid looking. The worst part is that it seems like they think that if they take the same picture again it'll come out better this time or something. I've had to remove/hide quite a few people because they wouldn't stop posting their attempts at it. I use facebook to keep up with my friends and talk to them when they're A: out of the country and B: when my phone dies (When I hit snags, paying my phone bill for the month right away falls to the bottom of my priority list). I don't want all I see while scrolling through things out of boredom to be 12 girls attempting and failing to look cute and a few guys trying to look their "gangsta-est" while making a duck face

Well, to be fair, she's not making a duckface. She's just pouting. There's a clear difference there. Pouting can be cute and, to an extent, somewhat sexy, whereas duckface cannot (unless pulled off REALLY well).

 

[Unsilenced]

I don't get how this became a thing. Are there males that find this attractive? Does it serve some other societal purpose, like a status symbol where the duckier a woman can make her face, the bigger the wedding dowry? Is there a religion that worships a duck-faced God, and this is a symbol of religious dedication?

I don't even.

Hey 90% of Aussies fulfil the useless Aussie stereotype. That being said, I too would like to accompany you on this journey, for I am bored and in need of Adventure. Plus I'm pretty could with country capitals and maps, so I could be the guy that navigates.

I think the whole duck-face thing looks really stupid, whenever i see pictures of girls doing this, i cringe. The "trendy" way that girls are using now is utterly disgraceful.

The "duck face" is essentially trying to emulate two trends which I'm pretty sure celebrities started. They're either trying to emulate kissing or blowing a kiss to the camera, a trend that actually started with Marilyn Monroe:

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xgvSEOYhpTw/Tvr9CQ1KC7I/AAAAAAAACdY/8OIVEdHnDn4/s1600/marilyn-monroe-duckface.jpg

But no matter the reason, they all end up trying too hard and it just looks terrible and awkward.

I think Marilyn Monroe was actually blowing a kiss to the camera in that photo, but i whole heartedly agree with the bit i bolded

Nah, Rarity just makes every look, look good

OT: I don't understand the duck face thing either, always see it but can't understand why
Maybe they think it looks good, or some men like the look, who knows.
