eccedentesiast...

One who fakes a smile or represses his pain by stifling a smile. Or you could say a person who hides his feeling behind a smile.


Word Origin: It is a term that is normally used to define people who go in front of the camera and have to fake a smile for the sake of the audience. The term is suspected to have first been coined by Florence King, an American Novelist and writer for the National Review. She refereed to this term in her column ‘The Misanthrope’s Corner’ when talking about politician’s and TV hosts. This is a great literary term to use if you’re trying to describe a character who tends to be reluctant when it comes to displaying genuine emotion.
