Nobody Loved You

In this world, personality and character counts for nothing. Proof in point: you can be extremely good-looking and literally get away with murder, but no one cares if you're ugly and intelligent/funny/smart/hardworking/whatever, because the good-looking person will always have the upper hand.

I don't care anymore about the whole don't-judge-a-book-by-its-cover because that is just simply bullshit. Human beings will do what is natural for our survival - assess the potential threat at a glance, then size them up immediately based on appearance. Whatever second impressions there are later are just flukes or accidental.

Although there are a few people out there who still believe in the goodness of people or the fact that personality overpowers looks, I give them a maximum of 10 years to become utterly jaded and cynical. There is no use fighting the system. Otherwise, why would the cosmetic surgery industry be raking in billions?

And yes, I'm pissed off right now and hurt and angry and disappointed, but it's not the first time, and it sure as hell won't be the last.
