Not "Pug-Ugly" but "Butt Ugly"
No doubt he—Mr. Meechan, not the dog—was unfavored by nature (as so many of us indeed are), but it took some determination on his part to look quite as hideous as he manages to do. In this, however, he was only showing how deeply conventional was his mind, for such primitive self-mutilation as he indulges in has now become a mass phenomenon. If dandyism had been the fashion, he would no doubt have been a dandy; but unfortunately the fashion is now to make oneself look like a barbarian attacking the Roman legions on the other side of Hadrian’s Wall. There is nothing as feeble as the human mind when it is in the grip of the desire to be fashionable.-- The Butt of the Joke

The incredible part is that he has a girlfriend.
Unless of course she is a he but identifies as a she, then it's understandable, I guess.
The stunning part about this stuff is that it is being accepted with open arms in commercial establishments.
Last week I was in Harbor Freight and the ditz at the checkout looked like a cross between a pin cushion and a comic book, with rainbow hair, ripped up rags, and there she (I think it was a she) was, right up front representing the business.
What, are there more misfits than normals now,
so that the businesses have to let them in, or sink?
How many versions of hepatitis are flowing through her veins?
