The Frown

Many of you have seen Becky’s “Frown.”  If you don’t know what I’m referring to, then you haven’t seen it.  The Frown is hard to forget.  When she frowns at you, you feel like you’re back in grade school, being stared down by a large, mean teacher after you just flubbed what should have been a simple math problem.  Her look says, “You’re a moron.  What were you thinking?”  Becky typically shoots you The Frown when she’s been scolded, or when she’s been injured.  For example, if she bumps her head on a table, she’ll turn and look at you with this shocked, disbelieving expression, like your stupidity personally caused her cranium to get whacked.    

But descriptions don’t do it justice.  You’ve got to see it to fully grasp the impact of the Becky Frown. 

I’ve been trying to capture The Frown on camera for a while, with no luck.  When I asked her to give me The Frown on demand today, this is what she did:

The closest she came to The Frown was this:

I’ll be sure to let you know if I’m ever able to catch the elusive, fleeting moment when Becky visibly disapproves of the world’s idiocy. 

Who knows where she ever got the look from?

    I’m so surprised you haven’t captured the frown!! I saw it SO much last week! Those pictures don’t even come close to the dramatic furrowed brows Becky expresses.
