Geez, look at all the negative comments to the story. The ugly people are in an uproar....

Is this that new website that I will be one of the firsts to be on??   Yeah, it's tough being beautiful....meh.


The basis of it is kind of true.  People are scared of beautiful people.. hot women and men tend to be single more than others as it seems that people are intimidated by their looks and don't approach them.

/pulling stats out my a$$ to provide an example, but I am pretty sure it's true.

Let us know if you get in.

With more than two thirds of the population (in North America) being overweight, I suspect it has more to do with weeding out the out-of-shape types than anything. Sure, some people are genetically blessed (Brad and Angelina's kids, for example), but most people who are deemed attractive are found to be so because they put a lot of effort into their appearance and overall health (i.e. exercising regularly, eating healthy food, bathing and grooming often, etc.).

With that said, I wouldn't attempt to join (if I were single) because I like to decide for myself who is or isn't attractive; moreover, I don't want to be part of a 'hot or not' type of public voting system that could damage my fragile ego.  ;D

I apologize if this question has been asked before, but I'm new to the forum thing, and didn't find any answers to my question, even after searching for hours.

Where do I sign up?

Nice assumption.  You do what what ASSUME does, right?  :  And before you ask, no, I definitely would not "qualify" for that particular dating service.

I think you just assumed that I was going to retort with a smartass one liner, therefore proving that sometimes assumptions are correct. ;D

Sometimes assumptions are correct. ;D

But that just proves the theory!!

I know I'd get rejected...

Then again, Im pretty sure most of the people who are on that site are the typical shallow "good-looking" people Ive seen on multiple online dateing sites....

the northern pikes wrote a great song about em.. "she aint pretty she just looks that way"


cheers

Meh, I dont' think much of this site, always a group of people who think they are better than other people, the Nazis, white people (go back a couple hundred years give or take) and of course every rapper on this earth probably. that being said the only people that justifies this cause would be Chuck Norris :threat: and maybe Rick Hillier :warstory:

PS: I'd be the poster boy of this site if I did signed up ;D

You're in luck because while looks appear to be important, the proper use of grammar does not seem to matter at all. (On their website, it says "looks matters"...oh my :)
