How it's used
Describes a person's facial expression or general appearance when they look miserable, annoyed, or physically unattractive. It is a harsh, informal term that implies the person is projecting a negative vibe or looks like they have been through something unpleasant. Use it carefully as it can be quite offensive depending on the context and tone.

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with simply being ugly, as it often refers to a temporary state of looking grumpy or unwell rather than a permanent physical trait.
