Do you feel pretty?
Or do you feel witty?
I think I would like to start with a sing along.
“Your too pretty
Oh too pretty
you’re too pretty, it’s shitty and gay
when you’re in love, with yourself
you’re repulsive to those with a brain.”
Wait! give me a second to make myself sound sane.
Ever hear someone say, “Oh she knows she’s hot” in a negative tone. Well if you don’t know what they mean I’m gonna explain it, as well as the “Know it All Syndrome”. See, one can be very attractive and a decent person. It happens all the time. But just as often many fall victim to their own looks. Something goes “click” in their subconscious and their personality changes.
Not one person alone can do this to an individual. For example, one could have a boyfriend, girlfriend, adoring imaginary midget, follow the person around saying “your hot, your dope, etc. but it won’t do a damn thing. It’s something society does, with help from those “Xmas card” parents, and of course the amount of kiss-asses an individual is exposed to.
Evidence? How about the whole humble country girl stereotype? Her parents make her milk cows. There are few Gucci signs about, Laguna Beach type shows truly seems to be what they are, fiction. Most of all there are just less people to fawn over them.
Now compare the farm girl to those women found in hmm, let’s just say, North Shore Long Island, Boca, LA. A guy has a better chance landing a hot chick from Nebraska than they do a fugly broad from North Jersey. But that’s another story. No matter ones character, anyone can fall for themselves eventually.
When people have charisma, they get things easier. I don’t believe it’s something to pout over like some eyeliner wearing, pimple popping teenager, but its fact, nature even. The pretty, get perhaps more opportunities but it’s the interpersonal interaction that begins the rotting of their souls. People want to be their friends, close, want to be associated with these charismatic people. So they say what the pretties want to hear. They agree more often, they hold back criticism; they forgive things that they usually would not, because people in general have a tendency to sacrifice more and more integrity to be around pretty things. Oh you know it’s true.
Some stay grounded, take what they have, appreciated it, but are aware of their shortcoming and seek to improve. But the pretties on the other hand get lazy. Now the pretties are so used to this kind treatment, they begin to feel as if they deserve it. Their character becomes unbalanced. They become fickle, expectant and begin to have slight delusions of grandeur.
Their self absorbed persona leaves them completely oblivious to their own incredible insensitivity. But who needs to care about another person’s feelings or frankly anything else when you’re pretty???? and thats it. That’s the “click” and the subconscious’s new motto.
They now abuse the one strength they have left, for they neglected the rest and their character has become unbalance and asymmetrical, which scientifically speaking, makes it ugly.
Quite similar, though you might not expect it, are your brainiacs. They’re pissed at the world by the time they’re out of high school. I don’t have to explain all that shit. Rent The Breakfast club or something. They are smart enough to become stubborn. They hold their fragile and beaten ego together with disdain for the less intelligent, the athletic, the pretties. Anything and everything that doesn’t come natural to them is stupid.
Whatever social walls were built around them, they begin to build larger and thicker. Never trying new things or meeting new people. They too, start to have slight delusions of grandeur and become, insensitive, arrogant, and most ironic, ignorant as all hell. How interesting one-dimensional people are, interesting and pathetic.
So, ask yourself, do you think that perhaps you might be a little of a brainiac or a bit too aware of your good looks? Some introspection in order perhaps?
Thanks!
