12 Signs You Have Resting Nice Face
TheOfficeScranton

At this point, you've probably heard of Resting B*tch Face, what happens when your natural facial expression looks mean, or emotionless. The victims of RBF suffer from an onslaught of questions on the daily:

"What's wrong?"

"Why are you so upset?"

"Are you mad at me?"

But there's another plague affecting our population on the opposite side of the expression spectrum: Resting Nice Face.

While at first you may ask, "You have a naturally welcoming and approachable face. Why is that considered a problem at all?" There are many symptoms of Resting Nice Face that are less than desirable.

1. Strangers automatically trust you.

Strangers will have you watch their bag, their dog, and sometimes their small child.

2. Tourists ask you to take photos of them.

3. It's difficult for you to look cool.

You have the outfit, the shoes, and the sunglasses, but something about your #vibe is perpetually uncool. And no matter how many times you watch Tyra Banks demonstrating how to "smize," you just can't get it right.

4. Kiosk sales people, Green Peace signature collectors, and grocery store solicitors seem to approach you more than anyone else.

They probably thought you were smiling at them.

5. People always ask you for directions.

I don't know where I'm going any more than you do, sir.

6. Strangers sit next to you. All. The. Time.

This movie theater is empty. Empty! Can you give me a little space please?

7. People can't tell when you're mad.

This one can be a big problem. When you're upset about something, you have to vocalize your feelings because no one can tell from your facial expression. You are also incapable of frowning.

8. People cut you in line.

Not only are people not able to tell when you're mad, they also don't think you're able to get upset. With a face so nice and welcoming, there's no way you would say anything if they cut in front of you in line. Right?


9. No one knows when you're being sarcastic.


The sass gets lost in your deer-like eyes.

10. No one expects you to swear.


You look too innocent.

11. Strangers start up conversations with you.


A three hour plane ride gets a lot longer when the lady sitting next to you decides to tell you her entire life story. You didn't ask for this, but you're probably too nice to tell her to stop.

12. Animals and babies love you.

You are allowed one perk.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
