-_-

The term “-_-” is a form of emoticon slang used to represent a feeling of frustration, disappointment, or resignation. It is made up of a horizontal line (-) to represent eyes, an underscore (_) to represent a mouth, and another horizontal line (-) to represent eyes again. It is often used in online communications, such as text messages or social media, to express exasperation or irritation.

This slang term is derived from the visual representation of a facial expression with raised eyebrows and a straight, flat mouth. It is typically used when someone is fed up, annoyed, or unimpressed with a situation or person. “-_-” can be seen as a shorthand way to convey these emotions digitally, where facial expressions and body language are not possible.

Examples:
1. I can’t believe my favorite show got canceled again. -_-
2. A: Did you see the ridiculous prices of the new iPhones?
B: Yeah, it’s just a bunch of unnecessary upgrades. -_-
