Was anyone else disappointed that we did not get to see pictures of actual grinning corpses? Way to let me down, LiveScience!

Well, it makes sense right? If they have a paralysis effect, less flopping around when you try to ritually kill someone.

Is this botox-like, or is anyone else thinking it's kind of Joker-like?

@eve804: Yes! I just spent 10 minutes image searching to determine if the 'weeds' growing all along our back fence were the Smiley Death Flower or what I had always thought of as Queen Anne's Lace. Alas, no homemade Grin Poison for me. :(

I had planned on leaving a happy corpse because of a long life full of air conditioning, fucking, and booze, but y'know, whatever floats your boat to the Grey Havens.

Star Trek NextGen, anyone? The episode where Troy's mother falls in love with that David Ogden Stiers character? And he goes back to his planet to commit ritual suicide because he's reached the age at which that's what his people do?

Anyone?

I never knew this is where the word sardonic came from. That's so fascinating/eerie.

@NellMood: It also pops up here:

And in a short story I read ages ago, entitled Sardonicus, one of the characters has Risus Sardonicus (and calls himself Sardonicus. Way to not draw attention to it, pal!)

I'm so put off by this, and yet disappointed that I couldn't find a photo of a real "grinning corpse."

Way to let me down/know what's best for me, Google.
