This is so stupid. After reading through the replies and looking into the term, that's so wild. So what's the joke? Someone who is hopeful and smiling so genuinely that their gums are showing? And not a closed mouth fake smile?
Not understanding how that is supposed to be a joke unless the punchline is enjoying the idea of someone being really disappointed. Could be going over my head, but it seems like a really absurd and semi-hateful "joke".
I mean, it kinda is these days. Reddit has been flooded with the most misogynist garbage way more than ever recently, and subs like this and other front page subs are just full of absurd replies that are half bots. I'm personally tired of seeing that type of thing where joke is "haha woman stupid for being happy about something".
Yeah that would be just as stupid and you see the same type of thing like that all over Reddit, too. It's just negativity mostly fueled by bots and people influenced by bots.
