Also called Count Dooku Superiority · Dooku Smug Face · Look of Superiority
A book labels Count Dooku’s expression as his “signature look of superiority.” Add the tiny achievement that makes you feel just as pleased with yourself.
The printed annotation interprets the expression before you add anything. Your caption gives Dooku a new, usually trivial, reason for feeling superior.
It works as a self-roast when the pride is much larger than the accomplishment. Knowing one answer or bringing the right cable can become a grand distinction.
