i also tend to have smile by default and i'm always hyperaware of every time it doesn't fit the conversation
>hey how are you
>oh had a horrible weekend, lost my job, my dog died, gf dumped me, piano fell on my car

i made a sad face for my avatar, but i'm also somewhat uncomfortable about using it in serious situations cause sometimes it feels like switching facial expression in a video game is not an adequate thing to do when someone says something serious and sad. eh, i think people can ignore smiley expression and see sad body language anyway, so it's all fine
