This is actually a rant I had the other day at work, but since I can't get access to LJ there I emailed it to myself.
Billboards that piss me off )

lol yea, i'm totally with you with the slight exception of ugly betty, and even there its basically everyone telling her that she'd be pretty if she got the braces off and wore different clothes, but she doesn't because she likes it that way.so even the exception isn't so much of an exception.

i feel like knocked up is also an excellent example of this phenomenon.

yeah I couldn't even handle seeing that movie :P Though I have actually noticed that Ugly Betty isn't actually ugly, just a little goofy...but yeah, haven't really seen that show either.

How are you liking SF?? I'm still a little up in the air on the 19th, they're threatening to change my schedule...the bastards...I'll keep you posted.

Amanda, i am going to start this comment, as i start most of my comments in your journal: I LOVE YOU.

yeah, you are so right about the attractive men never going for the not so attractive woman.

it's not just looks that are ncessary for breeding, intelligence and logic count as well. and it annoys me when women go for dummies.

the dimmer do reproduce more. i walk around downtown pittsburgh all the time and see really young and dumb people with more than one kid. it doesn't make sense. this should not be possible in nature. and yet, here we are.

i've heard people rate girls by numbers. girls don't do that to guys. fact.
