Is this what anime artists think faces look like?

No. Usopp's nose is notorious even within the cannon of the story. It's a story about a pirate with a rubber body. Realism isn't high on Oda's list of priorities.

Usopp is also a liar, hence the Pinocchio nose.

Oda also has said he was intentionally was trying to make something visually distinct from other manga at the time.

I dont know who Usopp is but the guy with the red vest, his face is sliding off his head.

That is the character who ate a cursed fruit and is now made of rubber or something.

That's Luffy D. Monkey. He ate the Devil Fruit and now his body has the same properties of rubber, like being stretchy and absorbing electricity. He's still flesh and blood, but it all stretches. His face looks like that because it is a long running anime in its early days in the mid 90's which means the quality of the animation when not fighting is spotty at best. For reference, see any non-fighting scene from Dragonball Z/Sailor Moon.

"Well actually..."

The Carters have been married 73 years, the longest in US presidential history.

And lest chicken-hawks forget that President Carter, unlike most of them, actually served in the military.

I think he was the last truly good person to hold the job. I like some of the other guys that have had the job after him but I don't think of them as fundamentally good people but Carter really seems like genuine good human.

now back to humor

One thing I notice all the time now is when characters in none animated shows and movies go to great lengths to position themselves so they are both facing the camera as they have a conversation. Once you look for it it’s everywhere!

In musical theater, we call this "cheating out". As in you're not *really* looking at each other (you're cheating), but your face is pointed out towards the audience so they can actually hear you singing. You can't have a duet on a physical stage where you turn and look into each other's eyes (plus, you're usually singing very, very loudly....so that would not be cool, full blast musical theater voice in your face-wise).

We called it “cheating out” in non-musical theater too.

In non-musical non-theater, we just call it "cheating."

Cheat Day!
