The actor opened up to Jimmy Kimmel about the 'common misconception' surrounding his enjoyment of public events.

Some people have really expressive faces where you can see how joyful they are and excited to be places.

Sometimes, you're Ben Affleck.


The actor, who recently was talked about again after his seemingly grumpy expression during photos at the Grammys in February, recently defended his characteristic long-face.

It's a "common misperception," according to Ben Affleck, that he isn't having fun when he attends events.

On Jimmy Kimmel Live! he defended his "really unhappy-looking resting face."

"That's how God made me."

Affleck, whose facial expressions have often been used as memes, wanted people to know he does have joy and fun, but it's hard for anyone to know that about him because of his face.

Folks reacted to him defending his Resting Ben Face with empathy.



Some are still concerned he's not happy.



Still others came up with more explanations for his facial expressions.

Like maybe he's just tired.

Or maybe it's where he's from.

However, many people noted at least he's got a good looking face, even if it's hard to read happier emotions on it sometimes.

Seeing as Affleck's face and acting have gotten him this far, it's probably okay the way it is.

Pope Leo's Brother Sparks Outrage Over Vile Posts About Nancy Pelosi And Parents Of Trans Kids

The brother of Robert Prevost, a Chicago-born Roman Catholic Augustine cleric who last week became the newly-elected Pope Leo XIV, is facing heated criticism after some of his older Facebook posts resurfaced and revealed that he'd shared a video calling Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi a "drunk c**nt" as well as a transphobic meme about transgender children.

For instance, in an April 23 post, Prevost claimed that former President Obama desired “the total destruction of our way of life” and aimed to turn the U.S. into a dictatorship, adding that it would be “a racist one on top of it.” He had previously pushed a conspiracy theory alleging that “OBAMA WAS A CIA ASSET, PUT IN PLACE TO DESTROY THE USA.”
