I was looking for thread ideas and nothing is happening in the news lately except the usual bullshit. Obama is awesome/not awesome, Sarah Palin is dumb, and Julian Assange is a hair's breadth away from dying in a spectacular accident wherein a Predator drone pilot loses control of his aircraft and it happens to fly straight up Assange's ass. BO-RING. But then I came across a picture of Prince William and Kate Middleton. For what little I know about him, I like Prince William. He seems like a pretty stand-up guy. England could do far worse. Too bad all the gold and jewels in the world can't buy enough Rogaine to fix that hairline, yeep. But it's OK because he's a prince and he landed a hottie. It's the universe's way of compensating for the fact that his ancestors interbred, and goddamnit that's not his fault. It's a real-life sitcom formula: average-looking guy with sense of humor + hot wife. Repeated endlessly on TV these days. Back when I was forced to take sociology, I read about a study they did several decades ago before you had human subjects committees at universities. Apparently, there was an annual Freshman dance that everybody attended, and since nobody knew each other they would match up girls and guys by a questionnaire they filled out. Well, one year, for science, they decided to have people turn in their forms to a desk, and the guy at the desk would write down the attractiveness rating of the person on a 1-10 scale. Half the people were matched by the questionnaire, and half completely on looks (a 4 with a 4, etc.) The half matched completely on looks were way more likely to go out again. EDIT: Harry Coolahan asked and is too lazy to Google; it's Walster et al.'s matching hypothesis (1966). FOCUS: What are the biggest differences in attractiveness (in relationships or hookups) you've encountered, either personally or in your social circle? Please rate the two parties (including yourself if necessary) on a 1-10 scale for attractiveness only. Did it lead to success or was the relationship a powder-keg?
Focus: Anywhere in Hollywood. If you're a dude, it's who you know, what you've done, and how much money you have. If you're a chick, it's how good you look in a Jazzercise outfit. It's enough to make a grown man, or a slightly overweight girl, cry. But that's OK. I'm into slightly overweight girls. I'm a 7 on a good day. But my timing is immaculate.
Thats why Charles (Williams father) married Diana , to broaden the gene pool. Then when she "accidentally" died , we got with his inbred mistress Camilla whom he had been seeing all along. <a class="postlink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camilla,_Duchess_of_Cornwall" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camilla,_D ... f_Cornwall</a>
A guy I know is incredibly nice. Not a particularly charming guy, his parents have money but not a huge amount and he's not seeing any of it as of right now. He also looks like what you would imagine when I say stereotypical jew. Essentialy he looks like Woody Allen except he also has something wrong with one of his hands where it is malformed and underdeveloped. The guy is a 4 on his best day. His girlfriend on the other hand is a easy 9. Tall, blonde, hourglass figure and a pretty fun girl to be around. She is also madly in love with him anyone can see that. Seriously if there was a God, him and this guy must be on a first name basis. Still, he is one of the nicest guys I know...is what I tell myself when I lie in bed (without a super hot girlfriend) and try to supress the insane fits of jealousy.
Focus: In my immediate social-circle, I am shocked by the close proximity of physical attractiveness that is present between the two involved. Nobody that I hang out with regularly is the polar-opposite of the other. However that all changes once I move slightly beyond my immediate social-circle. I spent a lot of time traveling with junior hockey players, and quite often get introduced to their families and their girlfriends after games. It amazes me how good looking these girls are compared to their junior-hockey counterpart. The younger players have bad facial-hair, a ton of acne and yet they are wheeling gorgeous girls on the regular. That being said, these relationships rarely last because either: a) The girl realizes that most junior athletes are idiots. B) The guy realizes that the girl is a star-chasing whore that is probably cheating on him.
If there's one thing that Camilla proves, is that she must be the greatest lay in the history of the universe. Seriously, she must do things to his dong that would make Milla Kunis look like your hand.
When I saw this thread I immediately thought of me and my sister. Her: She is an attractive blond who bartends at a popular bar in downtown in Atlanta. She got the job because one of the managers met her at a sports bar that she used to be a waitress at, and offered it to her. She was always popular in high school (she is one grade below me) and currently has about 1800 friends on Facebook (I know, I know it's lame to use the number of Facebook friends, but it serves as a good indicator). She also went to the University of Alabama for two years and was in a sorority. Me: I was always overweight and weighed 275 pounds when I graduated from high school. I am 6'3'', but believe me, it was all fat and no muscle. I looked BAD! On top of that, I wore the big, round type of glasses. I have lost the eight (I currently weigh 200 lbs), but I still do not have a lot of friends. The only silver lining is that she has put on some weight, but she doesn't look bad by any means.
Mods, this does not serve the focus at all, but I must do this: BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Jesus CHRIST, buddy - a thread about fucking attractive/unattractive people reminds you of you and your sister?! I guess we're just fortunate that you didn't take this opportunity to post nude pictures of her, as some other members would. I love this place.
As long as he doesn't start posting pics of them going to prom together, or her doing porn, it's all good. And hilariously fucked up.
My high school physics teacher was your typical short Asian math nerd. I suppose for a short Asian math nerd he was perfectly normal looking; he didn't have any acne or acne scarring, he wasn't thin as a rail, had normal hair, etc. Nonetheless he had a really demure personality, or at least, he had one whenever he was teaching. His wife was tall, blonde, and hot. Fuck knows how he did it, because I doubt he met her in physics classes at university.
WHAT. THE. FUCK. Sorry I have to say this, but did you flick off the Impulse Switch in your head when you wrote that? I'm freaked out over here.
Wait, let me guess.... Said sister works in a bar, pouring booze down the throats of the wicked, but doesn't necessarily drink. Hmm... Mormon?
My best friend is at the very best a 4. She has jacked teeth, hasn't lost her pregnancy weight even though her daughter is in 1st grade, and has a shit personality when it comes to relationships (she's an awesome friend, but I have no idea why any guy would want to be with her.) Her boyfriend/civil law husband is an 8. He would be a 9 if he didn't have anger issues. He looks like Ryan Phillipe but a little shorter. Personality wise, he's they are total equals, but if he doesn't do too much talking he's pretty breathtaking. They'd been together for 8 years when SHE broke up with HIM. He begged her to take him back, called me crying because he wanted her back, and posted a series of the saddest Facebook status updates I have ever seen. She found a new guy three days later. I do not understand her appeal at all.
The ballet master and mistriss in my company were worlds apart in attractiveness. She was gorgeous. She looked like a blonde Angelina with more natural lips. And, she had a really awesome figure. She had a boob job when she stopped dancing. He, on the other hand, was probably a 4 on the scale. He was about 50 years old, and looked like a grizzly bear. He had a little bit of a beer belly, was a known pothead, and had both of his hips replaced (for some reason knowing that made him even unsexier in our eyes). Did the marriage work? Absolutely. After getting to know him it turned out that he was awesome. We all had crushes in him because he was so nice, sweet, and very charismatic. He was the biggest flirt, and it wasn't creepy at all because we loved him. I could completely understand her attraction to him.
Spend some time in places like Arkansas or Mississippi, and that post makes total sense. Can you hear the banjo music? Focus: Billy Joel and Christy Brinkley. They have a child and in comes Murphy's Law: she got his looks and her talent. Or, Heidi Klum and that scarface Seal. Or, Lyle Lovett and practically any woman on the planet, let alone Julia Roberts.
I worked at a used car lot for a few months and was often amazed at the level of trim those guys pulled. The owner, general manager and finance manager looked like extras from an episode of Spongebob Squarepants but all had solid 8-9's as wives. I guess if you can sell a $8000 car for $16000, you can sell your fat, smelly ass to a hot chick.
When I was in college, the Greek system brought alot of this out. Girls were so turned on by a guy in "great" frat that they didn't care what he looked like. I had a friend who was tall, gangly, and looked kind of like Grover from Sesame Street. But he was a Phi Psi and girls loved this. He dated 2 of the most stunning girls I'd seen in college...and cheated on them with other cute girls. Senior year, he put on a bunch of weight and looked humorously bloated, despite this, his new gf was a friend of mine who is quite attractive and had recently added a pair of fake tits to her arsenal. She is also going to be on the newest season of the Bachelor. I didn't get it. Hot chicks in the prime of their physical attractiveness hooking up with stupid, sloppy dudes just cause they have the right credentials, I thought that didn't happen till your 30s? On a lesser extent, my roommate falls into this category. Awesome dude, probably my best friend, but, by most people and his own admission, he is probably a 6. He makes up for it with a deep booming voice girls love for some reason and a pretty engaging personality. His gf, and probably eventual wife, is 5'8, blond, slender, great body. And she was that stereotypical bitchy sorority girl in college who would have never talked to him. He met her at the right time I guess. They work well as a couple, but pictures of them side by side definitely fit the focus.
Three words: First. Date. ATM. Focus: Most of my "history" falls in the 6-7 range and of the three girls I've had serious relationships with I'd say two were around a 7 (at the time--one has put on serious weight since) and one was a 10. I'm pretty much an average looking guy, used to have a pretty serious beer belly going but I'm in better shape now and I do have blue eyes that some girls go nuts for. That said I've fucked pretty much everything on the scale from about a 2 through the aforementioned 10. Alcohol is a hell of a drug.
Rawwwr I'm a 9.5 on looks and I bang 10s on the reg, no idea how I keep landing these broads out of my league. Lucky, I guess.
She's a prude. She doesn't give blowjobs and she was dating her daughter's father for a year before she put out.
