The reason nobody smiled in "ye olden times" and 3rd world shitholes is rotting teeth. With modern hygiene practices smiles are winning the reservation war. However, there is a new player in town: media consumption zombification. It seems the smile only had a short lived reign of dominance on the broadcast stage of the faces of the human race. A perfect convergence of knowledge transfer and materials science. The smile, like all gestures that possess a host body, could not adapt to the arrival of the smartphone: a paradigm shift. All expressions find themselves atrophying and disappearing into the void created by a consumption addicted populace. The formerly active receivers through which gestures could express themselves out into physical space have largely gone dormant and nonresponsive.

It's the honest way. Nobody's going to pretend to be elated as a courtesy. It's like the retarded anglosphere tradition of answering "fine" to every "how are you" question.

This isn't American thing you fucking retards. I live in Finland the autism land and while normally people don't smile that much it's still everywhere in our magazines and ads. It's some human psychology thing that "you will find smiling faces more friendly and desirable" but to adults (and non-women) it's obvious that it's all just a fake front.

Or when games with character creation has shit lighting in the creation screen, so you're not 100% sure about the colors, and when you get into the actual gameplay they look like shit.
Funnier is when they implement a "see your character in different lighting" option in the character creator and all the lighting is off there too, in all the presets.
