Nah - I know the look - it's the look that you put on when you're bigger than the person you're trying to control, and you know you could throw them down and stomp on them - but they're your friend, so rather than do that, and incite something bigger, or say something and incite the same thing - you get this kind of thousand yard stare that says "yes, yes, let's just move along and get out of here before the nice policeman decides to stomp your silly little a$$ and I have to explain to your mom (or in my case, the First Sergeant) exactly how stupid you got.
Not that I've ever gotten that look before, mind you.
"Not that I've ever gotten that look before, mind you."
LOL, and the look on the smaller guy's face is familiar, too. "I'm a little banty rooster, but if I look berserk enough, I just might scare you." Trouble is, once this front gets put up, they feel obligated to follow through, if the object of the display doesn't back off.
