Hmm, starting with the definition. "Hollow faced" – so I should break this down. "Faced" as in having faces? Like, maybe something that lacks substance on its face. Wait, but 'hollow' means empty inside. So combining both aspects: outwardly appearing normal or full but actually empty inside. But how to make it hilarious? Maybe use a metaphor or some wordplay. Let's think of objects that look solid from the outside but are empty inside. Like a coconut? But that's more literal. Or maybe a foam bowl? Hmm. Wait, "hollow faced" could also apply to people. Someone who talks a big game but is empty inside. Oh, but the user wants an example sentence that's edgy or unsettling. So maybe using it in a context that highlights someone's superficial nature in a creepy way. Wait, let's start with the definition. Maybe use a funny analogy. For example, "Hollow faced is like when your favorite foam cup decides it's had enough of being a drink container and actually wants to go existential, but from the outside looks like it's made of solid ceramic." No, that's not quite right. Let me think again. Alternatively, compare it to something hollow. Maybe a balloon? But balloons are typically round and have faces (like smiling). Wait, "hollow faced" could be something that has a face but is empty inside. So maybe a deflated inflatable toy with a smiley face on it. That would be hollow-faced because the exterior shows a face, but it's empty inside. So putting that into a definition: "Hollow faced refers to something that displays a facial feature or persona outwardly but lacks substance, depth, or emotion internally—akin to a deflated balloon wearing a mask, maintaining the appearance of warmth and expression without any real feeling behind it." Now for the example sentence. It needs to be edgy or unsettling. How about: "The Hollow-Faced politician strutted onto the stage with his charming smile, all bravado and promises hanging by a thread—except, like, there was no thread at all." Wait, maybe better to make it more vivid. Let's say: "His hollow-faced demeanor could have dissuaded passersby from donating water in the desert, assuming he wasn't just another mirage of confidence spinning empty rhetoric." Hmm, not sure. Alternatively, using a creature metaphor. Maybe: "The Hollow-Faced clown juggleled brightly colored orbs with unsettling precision, each bounce echoing off his vacant gaze, rendering his act nothing more than a hollow mimicry of joy." Wait, but that's about a performer. Let me think again. Perhaps in a horror context. Like: "In the dimly lit room, the Hollow-Faced mannequin stood regally behind the pharmacy, its eyes soulless voids amidst layers of vintage clothing—a silent testament to forgotten lives clad in pretense." No, maybe too clinical. Wait, the example needs to be edgy/unstable. Maybe something like: "She was the archetype of a Hollow-Faced predator, her laughter dripping with insincerity as she feasted on his anxieties, all while maintaining the mask of a doting mother." That could work. It shows someone who appears nurturing (face) but is empty and manipulative inside. But I need to ensure that "hollow faced" is clearly defined in the first part, then used correctly in the example. Let me check again: The definition needs to be hilarious and informative. So combining humor with a clear explanation. Finalizing the definition as something like: "Hollow-faced is a term of endearment (or not) for objects, people, or even ideas that project a convincing exterior persona—be it confidence, emotion, or solidity—but upon closer inspection (or interaction), reveal an emptiness devoid of essence, integrity, or depth." Then the example sentence could be: "Politicians are masters of being hollow-faced, strutting before the cameras with all the warmth and sincerity of a bureaucratic bureaucracy fresh out of rehearsed-script mode—except there's absolutely no script underneath." Wait, but maybe make it more specific. Let me adjust for clarity. Definition: Hollow-faced is like that creepy deflated clown from your childhood basement—the exterior boasts a goofy grin and wild googly eyes, promising endless hours of silly fun. But once you spill a drop of fake punch, its hollow core reveals an existential vacuum, mocking your nostalgia with every shriek-less bounce. It’s the unsettling realization that what looks like a vibrant personality (or toy) is actually just airbrushed plastic and broken dreams. Example Sentence: "The Hollow-Faced priest marched through the congregation, his sermons dripping with hollow platitudes that echoed around the empty chambers of his soul—until he dropped dead from sheer affectation." (Whaddaya know? Even cynicism needs a heartbeat.) 🗞️✨
