Smug?

Somebody just said that I look smug in this picture (top right of page). I thought it was more mysterious and confident. Or something. As way of apology, he said "but smug suits you."

And it gets better. Excerpted from our IM:

him: i have a moira staring smugly at me out of my chat program

me: smug? you think i look smug?

him: in miniature you do look a little smug

him: in the full-sized version on your page not

him: but smug suits you

me: not talking yourself out of the hole here . . .

him: and btw i said you looked smug in miniature

him: like a smug lepricaun

him: no, a smug elf perhaps

About
Moira Burke

Psst! This is the blog of Moira Burke, a Ph.D. student in the HCI Institute at Carnegie Mellon University.

Rife with derivative pop culture blather, this site occasionally features thoughts on social psychology, usability, aesthetics, and the general meanderings of someone figuring out the meaning of life. Won't you help me find it?
