notee

The anti-goatee: a facial hair configuration where you've got full coverage everywhere except the chin and mouth area, creating a hilariously inverse goatee situation. It's the grooming equivalent of printing in negative, resulting in a look that's both technically impressive and deeply confusing. Why would anyone do this? The same reason people climb Everest—because they can.

Extremely, impossibly, aggressively adorable—short for 'cute as f***,' used when normal language fails to capture the maximum level of cuteness something has achieved. It's the linguistic equivalent of turning your enthusiasm up to 11.
