Smart or Pretty?
Which would you rather be?
If you're pretty, you're REALLY pretty, but a little below average intelligence
Opposite for smart

Re: Smart or Pretty?
I have know too many dumb but pretty little biitches. Besides, pretty is in the eye of the beholder.

Definitely true. There are even studies to prove it.
[QUOTE]Hmm...just a LITTLE below average intelligence, LVB?

Exactly. Not saying you couldn't finish college, but you're not the top of your class by any means and you're not going to be a physicist.
I got into a... um.... heated discussion in the bar on Friday night because some dude inadvertently called me stupid. And then he said I was girl, which was why I couldn't understand. What's worse? It was about NASCAR. I said I didn't like it. He just said I was too stupid to understand it. OH NO YOU DI'INT.
My husband gave him a look like, "Oh dude. Now you did it. I take no responsibility for your health or my wives words from here on in."
And then I let him have it.

This exactly.
I'd much rather be smart.
Also, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. My friend thought her ex was the hottest thing since George Clooney (or anyone else you might think is hot) and I thought he looked like a dirty rat.
[QUOTE]Smart, hands down. I got into a... um.... heated discussion in the bar on Friday night because some dude inadvertently called me stupid.

THAT'S AWESOME. I'm not sure how one is too stupid to understand NASCAR. It's.....going around in circles.

This is true and I've seen it happen.
I'd rather be smart though.

[QUOTE]Okay then. I'd chose pretty and I'd marry a smart (and good looking) guy. Then our children could have his intelligence and I could pass along the good looks. Win-win-win?
Posted by bree4305[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I think I choose pretty too. I don't consider myself brilliant. I had to work REALLY REALLY hard in school. I think things would have been easier had I been a little prettier. But as it is, I got a fantastic job without being brilliant. So now that I have my dream job, I would want to be prettier.

I like this option. But I've never felt "pretty" or "smart" and I feel like I can fake smart better than fake pretty lol. Thankfully this is not an actual option, b/c I'd have to think about it way too much before I made the decision.
I feel shallow.

Like, I'm sure most people don't think golf is fun to watch, but I don't tell them they're stupid and that they don't get it because they don't like it.
That's ridiculous.

[QUOTE]LVB, he said I didn't understand the physics behind why it was such an awesome sport. EYE.ROLL. Yeah, it's really tough to understand, fuckface. Then, I'm pretty sure I called him socially inept.

H could explain to you the physics of it if you'd like ;)
I just don't understand. Did he keep fighting you?
I'd rather be lucky than smart.
I'd probably rather be smart than pretty, although if I could be just dumb enough not to care about being dumb, then I'd probably enjoy being gorgeous. :P
[QUOTE]Oh for sure, some people love it, that's cool. I just find it horribly boring. Like, I'm sure most people don't think golf is fun to watch, but I don't tell them they're stupid and that they don't get it because they don't like it. That's ridiculous.

Its not my thing either. But whatever floats your boat. Its just that I hate it when people think their sport or hobby is better than theirs.

Posted by bree4305[/QUOTE]
Or your children would get his looks and your intelligence. Do you really want to take that chance?
I would much rather be smart than pretty.

It's funny to me when pretty people say they want to be more pretty.
You guys are insane.
