me, to co-worker: "Wow. You're either disturbingly cheerful today, or just scary!"

reply: "Scary!"



Gotta love conversations like that!

Isn't "disturbingly cheerful" the same as scary? It seems that the "disturbingly" would be a contributor here...

Well, in this case, I don't think he was actually _being_ cheerful, but simply smiling frighteningly huge as a self-defense mechanism. :)

smiling as a defense because otherwise he was going to kill someone?

or smiling as a defense because he'd done something that he needed a defense for?

The former, I think. Stress levels, probably.

I had a math teacher once who was disturbing cheerful. In the morning. About Calculus. *groans*
