I have an ex-boyfriend who has fibrous dysplasia. His head is literally deformed by weird bone growths in his skull (actually right now it's deformed because half his skull isn't there and he's waiting for the metal plate to be constructed, but I digress). He, objectively, is probably ugly or at least grotesque (at least, before he had the surgery, I haven't seen him since the surgery, and there was a plastic surgeon involved in putting him back together again).

But when we were dating, I found him to be attractive. He has some rather remarkable features that help lessen the deformities and he does what he can to draw your attention away from the top of his head. I guess I'm saying that ugly people can be attractive, at least if they have other good qualities that minimize their flaws.

You are again proving you are the patron saint of this board. I bow down. good person, you are.

Translation: He had an enormous cock.

Shapey was raised in more or less the south and is polite and gentlemanly. He probably still gets all screwed up on elevators in TCOTU because he tries to make way for women when it's just a cutthroat shoving match. So I think you can rest assured that whatever he thinks, and whatever he may say to various people with whom he is closeish friends, he will neither tell you to your face nor describe on the board the ways in which you fail to be attractive.

Unless you really piss him off.

Or unless TCOTU has changed him a lot.

That is what I am saying. Not only was Thurgreed NotPolite but he was gleaning enjoyment from his put downs. That is like an ugly side of a person....Shapey is much more polite.

I think that to the extent you love or like someone very much, they become attractive to you. I think I have said this before. You find something about them to be attractive, like their eyes or their hands or whatever.

That's not the same as "pretty" or "cute" or "handsome" though.

That, and he loved loved loved to give head.

Those are not attractive. Ugly. Not pretty. Not hot. And nothing you do is going to change my mind on that.

Somewhere, someone might find them attractive. Even pretty. Don't be such a hard grader.

That is what I mean. He *SO* lives to do stuff like that. At my expense. which I volunteered for. which makes me a frickin dolt. But I got my way. At the min. even if I don't ah, meet his standards, even he agrees I am not ugly.

And Sebby I see plenty o ugly. it ain't rare. UGLY AND OLD maybe you drive in.

Sorry, but like I said I find you as retarded as TM. And now you want some other anonymous lawyer on a message board to say whether you are pretty after he offered to rate you on a "how much I'd like to hit that" scale. Amazing.

Sorry but that would be pot:kettle, since you spend your entire day on an internet board with lawyers, with the highlight being you get to publicly declare some paralegal fat. It may be worth a brief chuckle, but you're retarded that you practically live for this shit. Anyone stepping back for a while can see both you and patentpara are equally retarded. Sorry, but that's the honest truth.

No, your retarded. Burger should start a poll.

I think TM was probably spot-on in his assessment,* and Shapey might be equally blunt if he were, say, talking to me on the phone. But you were an idiot to expect TM not to be totally blunt. I would never in a million years ask TM of all people to evaluate me to the board.

*possibly a little off on the "good personality" part.

I wouldn't wish the experience you've had over the past couple of days on my worst enemy, but you have to admit you gave him so much ammunition, not only by agreeing to such a meeting under such terms in the first place, but also by not letting the topic drop and trying to get him to change his mind or his public statements. It's that persistence that has contributed to the pile-on and the repetition of comments about your looks, which, if you are attentive, you will notice not everyone has participated in even where they have otherwise commented.

Most people here do not care about your looks, or anybody else's, one way or the other. You should really stop obsessing about this.

Ugly is truly rare, but unattractive is pretty commonplace. In this regard, ugly is exotic, and therefore attractive in its own way, while unattractive remains bland and, well, unattractive.

I think Gauguin said "The ugly can be beautiful, but the merely pretty, never."


At least it says he said that in Even Cowgirls Get The Blues.

I don't like the linen ones from Bliss all that much either.

But what dtb wants, dtb gets. In Bisbee or elsewhere.

That is correct. I just ask the universe for what I want and ..., voila!

Still looking for the pants. No luck yet. Sometimes the universe is busy tending to someone else's needs.
