Also a girl here:

Her face is the only really ‘weird’ thing about her, to be honest, which can be helped by seriously laying off the eyeshadow and investing in some bangs. Otherwise she’s got great legs and a nice physique.

I lost it at the picture of the guy, though, so I guess I lose. 🙂

At first I thought she was a really skinny dolled-up guy with jacked-up teeth and a bad wig. Yeah, I laughed.

Yup. The ‘wide-eyed dude taken aback’ picture made me lose it. (So do most lolcats pictures, so that wasn’t hard to predict.)

I was laughing my ass off from the first page. Good stuff.

While her face is truly something a yeti would recoil from – the context, her bikini, the car and everything else just add to the WTF.

And so (so) many questions, like… why does she put her eye makeup on upside down and inside out? Things we may not really want to know, actually.

I do enjoy the occasional deriding. I must be a huge asshole. I feel sorry for the girl, though. That kind of web exposure… ouch!

No, it didn’t make me laugh. It made me very sad. ☹

Especially when I read some of the comments on her Myspace page.

I’d say it worked out pretty well for ole’ William Hung in the end.

Yeah, I found it: plastered all over the message board the OP linked to. It’s not exactly hidden. Seemed rather silly to be all coy about where her page is when anyone else could find the link, too.

I may be overly hormonal tonight, but the fact that people on this board of all places actually find this funny rather than sad is upsetting.

Seriously, no one has one ounce of empathy? No one can restrain themselves from kicking the ugly girl for having the nerve to have pictures taken of her? Ugly people are just supposed to lock themselves in rooms in order to dodge abuse?

What’s worse is that evidently this isn’t even the original dude’s girlfriend (see **Tuckerfan** ’s post). He ganked those pics from somewhere else and posted that thread just so she’d be mocked. Cruelty is just one of those things I don’t get.

As I said, it got a lot less funny when I saw her MySpace page. This wasn’t a good natured ribbing of some guy taking unflattering pictures of his girlfriend, like it first appeared. This was a calculated and mean public taunting. And I still don’t think she’s all that bad looking.

Help me out, here… What about that is supposed to be funny? Just the fact that she’s wearing too much eye makeup, or is there something more to it? Because there’s nothing wrong with her that a damp washcloth wouldn’t fix, and I’ve seen far worse makeup before.

Or are we supposed to be laughing at all the other idiots in the thread? They’re not particularly funny, either, mostly just pathetic.

Honestly, I don’t think she’s ugly. She just has some seriously bad makeup on. I’m willing to bet quite a bit that she’s a damn bit better looking than a few of the people here who are making fun of her.

Same here. Something about that cat makes me cackle like a villain. The cat in post 66 is hilarious too.

It’s her godawful make-up job & bizarre posing that makes it funny. Her eyeliner makes her look like a drunk zombie. I’m sure if she wiped that crap off her face, put on some clothes, and stood normally she would look perfectly nice. But, she chose to take those pictures and I’m sorry but the combination of all that had me looking exactly like post #17.

I think it’s a perfect storm of bad makeup, AND the fact that she has the exact same expression on her face in every photo, AND that it’s not a flattering expression - it looks forced, AND that there are so many of those photos.

If it was just one or two pictures, people might say, “chick in bikini, posing with red sports car? Eh. Tacky. And she’s not even that cute.”

If she had some variety in her expression, there’d be less focus on her face and more discussion on which pictures were good or bad, and how she looks in that bikini.

If she looked fantastic, people’d be drooling and asking for more.

All things as they are, it becomes an internet phenomenon. Which sucks for her, and I hope it blows over quickly.
