Yeah. There are reasons other than looks that relationships fail, and neither person is necessarily Wrong. ---

> [@lobotomyboy63](#): > > I’ve never understood that. Taking the physical beauty argument as is, I’d still pick Jennifer over her (and a lot of other celebs) any day of the week. There’s something about Jennifer Aniston, IMO: a vulnerability maybe, a girl-next-door quality, I don’t know. YMMV. I wonder if this isn’t the determining factor for a lot of guys who prefer Jolie over Aniston and VV. Aniston seems very approachable and somewhat fragile, while Jolie certainly does not. ---

> [@Atomicflea](#): > > I wonder if this isn’t the determining factor for a lot of guys who prefer Jolie over Aniston and VV. Aniston seems very approachable and somewhat fragile, while Jolie certainly does not. Interesting. I’ve got the opposite perception. While she doesn’t seem “fragile” or “vulnerable” (unattractive qualities anyway, imo), AJ seems like she would talk to you and be cool. Aniston seems like she would probably walk right by without even looking at you. ---

I don’t think they’ve been linked to yet, but the rest of the photos from the mag are [url=]here (only as NSFW as the cover itself). The one where she’s lying next to the man is Photoshopped to hell and back. Her face doesn’t even look connected to the rest of her body. ---

Who does this insult more? Men, from the notion that a good-looking body is the only thing that can possibly matter in a relationship? Or women, for thinking that all breakups must be their fault? You’ve insulted all of humanity in a single line. Congratulations, you’re perfect SDMB material. 😛 ---

I have always thought that Jennifer Aniston is gorgeous. (I didn’t watch _Friends_, so I don’t remember all of the characters’ names: I referred to Aniston’s character as “the pretty one.”) The picture is very nice, but it almost looks like Martha Stewart’s face. RR ---

> [@Raguleader](#): > > I comment only to inform you that I’m stealing that expression now. 😃 If I start hearing this phrase all over the place you are all my witnesses that I came up with it. And if I see Jennifer Aniston say it I think she should at least come over to my house and try on a few of my ties 😃 ---

I think we are all missing the most important point here. Brad Pitt has good taste in women. ---

> [@Madd\_Maxx](#): > > I think we are all missing the most important point here. > > Brad Pitt has good taste in women. Yeah, but so what? _I_ have good taste in women; I just can’t seem to have many of them consider _me_ as good tastishness. Or something like that. RR ---

No matter how hot a woman is, somewhere there’s a guy who’s sick of her shit. Doesn’t necessarily mean she’s fucked in the head, though. ---

Really? I’ve seen pictures of a lot of you guys and you’ve got the nerve to call Ms. Aniston ugly? I see if she’s not your cup of tea, but she’s a good-looking woman. That’s pretty much it. ---

She is waaaay below my standards. Just kidding. I’d hit that like the fist of an angry god. /If I’m doing Fark cliches, I need to add some slashies. //More slashies for more funsies.
