Rubber Face | comment |
A common form of punishment in animated shows that involves stretching a character's face on either side. Generally done to imitate a smile (usually to the Comically Serious member of the cast for maximum humiliation) done out of frustration by one character towards another, or as a form of restraint. Optional "Gwwwommm" sound effect, and while not always done to the Rubber Man, the general idea is the same. Compare Squish the Cheeks and Finger-Forced Smile. |

One of The Simpsons Halloween specials had Ned take over the world and put everyone in smile machines that mechanically did this via hooks. Slight Nightmare Fuel, actually, especially if you'd ever been to an orthodontist. "Now remember everyone, BIIIIIIIG Smiles!" Homer: (to another hooked smiler) "What the hell are YOU smilin' at?" |

My Lovely Ghost Kana: Kana does it twice to Daikichi at the end of volume 2. Both times, it makes poor Utako scream in horror, as she's not aware of Kana's existence and only sees Daikichi's face getting suddenly deformed for no apparent reason. Kana can stretch her own face in a similar manner, and uses this face to prank people, especially young kids. |

The title screen to Super Mario 64 lets you stretch out various aspects of Mario's face and hold them in place for hilarious results. Perhaps as a nod to this, one minigame in Mario Party involves doing this to another character's face and trying to match it as closely as possible to a given image. | |

Similarly, in the Read or Die manga, Nenene does this a few times to Yomiko when frustrated. Nancy does this playfully to Yomiko in the OVA, as well. And in the anime, Yomiko tried to do it to Anita to ease her nervousness. Anita was not amused. Michelle does that from time to time to herself, after she does something stupid. |
