On myspace, some people think it's ok to insult how I look. I'm not gonna say I take it personally, but I do question WHY someone would attack someone like that. I'm no saint. I have my MOMENTS OF MEANNESS, where I will make fun of someone...but I don't do it to their face and it's not intended to hurt their feelings. If anything, it's my own weaknesses and insecurities manifested into shit talking behind someone's back. It's harmless and not at all malicious. It's human nature, really. I don't think I'd ever tell someone, unprovoked, that they're ugly or point out physical shortcomings they may have. I don't see any reason for that.
However, I apparently deserve it because of the pictures I post, which suggest that I think I'm VERY hot? APPARENTLY, certain cyber-vigilantes have taken it upon themselves to put me in my place, making sure I KNOW that I am NOT that hot at all, hardly even MEDIOCRE. They have made it their mission to point out that I have a big nose, no boobs and am too skinny, among other things. I need to be straightened out...snapped backed into reality, assuming I was ever there to begin with...and they are just the people to do it. They pride themselves on their "brutal honesty" and refusal to beat around the bush when it comes to such important matters as a complete stranger's appearance. They've really taken an important stand. I applaud them, as should you.
The problem is though, I have never, EVER EVER EVER, not even ONCE IN MY 25 YEARS, called myself hot. Honestly.
I DON'T think I am particularly hot. Just like everyone else, I pick apart my flaws like it's nobody's business. I compare myself EVERY SINGLE DAY to beautiful, airbrushed supermodels and unfortunately, I am extremely insecure when it comes to my appearance. It's a good thing that I am aware of what a fucking awesome person I am on the INSIDE, otherwise I'd probably hate myself completel, hahahah. ;-)
You could argue though, that making jabs at someone's intelligence (or lack thereof) is no better than picking on someone's appearance...and I HAVE been known to get a little snobby when it comes to "DULLARDS" and "COMMON FOLK."
Perhaps I am just being extremely hypocritical....
Hmmmmmm :-)

You have a big nose?
I do have a big nose, yes. It's long and pointy...and HOOKED.
I think you are gorgeous. I admire your wit and appreciate your honesty. Also, it is really cool that you are so comfortable with yourself.
People who need to put others down for superficial reasons don't have your attributes and I don't mean physically.
From one grammer loving Jersey girl to another, stay hot chick :)
Thank you, fellow Jersey Girl :-)
