It's easy to predict that smile logic is necessary to finish the mouth, and therefore the "2" clues in columns 3 and 8 must intersect rows 4 and 5.

cheer up Seb! you made a tricky easy puzzle :)

you can bring it down to pure smile logic at the bottom by doing the top/eyes first...C5R4 and C5R5 can't both be black, so at least one of C3R4 or C3R5 is black making both of them black, then the same on the other side.

I'm better now, I finally got my laptop back!

Good!

There's no smile logic here - only frown logic.
#6: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Dec 21, 2017
A frown is a smile turned upside down.:)

Right Belita -- it is FROWN logic. I was sure I was going to get a "This is not the intended solution" message, but to my surprise I got the "Yahoo!" instead. But it is a cute puzzle, anyway.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.

David's is the more rigorous logic.
