I was just walking to the ladies' room and I passed a guy from another office in my building. I've never seen him before, but he was sort of plain looking with a big pie-face, slicked back hair and all kitted out in a 3-piece suit and attache case. He was young though, probably younger than me. I'm guessing he was on an interview because the whole building is mostly business casual.
Now, I hate passing people in the hallways here because I hate the perfunctory politeness. I avoid eye-contact at all costs. Anyway, I pass this guy and he so blatantly stares at me that I had to shoot him an annoyed/murderous glance. He grins and says...
'Looking goooooooood...' I stopped dead in my tracks, whirled around and said very distinctly 'EW!!' He picked up the pace and hustled outta there mumbling an apology.
Now I ask you, who has used that phrase, 'lookin' good' in the last 30 years?
Just Big Ol' Pie-Face, that's who.

Re: Lookin' gooooooood...
Posted by usuk2004 Good point...when you described little Snively Pseudo-Fonz, were you referring to the coloring and pigmentation of his facial skin or the shape of his ugly mug? I've heard of people being called pie-face because their skin looked like a pizza....
This may be getting a little technical though.
Well his head and face were abnormally round... akin to a pie, and there was a doughiness to his features. While his skin was clear, the roundness, doughiness and puffiness all melded to really make his face ressemble an uncooked apple pie. Slightly lumpy and wholly unattractive.
So it was really a combination of the 2... both shape and pigmentation of said 'ugly mug'.
Also, had he been pegged in the face with a pie, it would have been a vast improvement.
