Synonyms: smile, grin,
simper, smirk. These nouns denote facial expressions, as those
indicating amusement, in which the mouth is curved upward slightly at
the corners. Smile is the most general, since it can cover a wide range
of feeling, from affection to malice: "She met his eye with her sweet
hospitable smile" (Henry James). "Tom saw a smile of contempt pass over
the young curate's features" (Henry Kingsley). A grin is a broad smile
that exposes the teeth; often it is a spontaneous expression of mirth,
good humor, approval, or triumph: "And he owned with a grin,/That his
favorite sin/Is pride that apes humility" (Robert Southey). A simper is
a silly, self-conscious, often coy smile: The model looked at her

This
sign was first seen in the 1960s although it was not extensively used
until
the 1980s. It is called the smile or acid
sign. Acid, apart from being a word for the drug LSD,
denotes a music style, a strange, dance
provoking blend of American soul and European disco music. Thus the
music,
the sign, and its name, acid, are somewhat associated with the pleasure
drug ecstasy
and the psychedelic drug LSD. This sign, however, is also the
logotype
for the international ecology organization Asian Pals of the Planet.
This sign is also drawn .

JS: of course it has. in a world that
builds on illusion. advertising is illusion... [...] in america,
they're gone... i tell you they're gone... you go to california.. i'm
talking really simple basic things.. you touch a piece of wood....
wrong! this wood is not wood. this wood looks like wood. [...] people smile
at you... wrong! they've been told by the management to smile at you.
so really, you're not seeing anything that's
real... not the objects, the buildings, the
signs, everything is fake. [...] and what they get we will get later...
if the world is moving towards that then i'm not interested... i like
to come back here cause here in london we have reality, we have people
shoving you out the way... that gesture, it's clear. this guy's in a
bad mood and he's shoving me out the way... that is real
communication... in california, they'll sue you. they'll sue you or
smile at you while he's thinking of shoving you out the way...
