Fugly. It’s the new pretty. For those of you who’ve been out of the loop, possibly sharing living quarters with Wiarton Willie lo these many months, I shall explain that “Fugly” is a contraction: the first part starts with “f” and rhymes with “trucking” and the second part is “ugly.” Are we all clear about that now, with our sensibilities nicely intact, our knickers untwisted, noses in joint and everything? Supah.

Now we’re going to blow them up completely.

Welcome to FuglyNet, possibly the least PC site on the Ubernet.

There’s nothing purer than the site of a carnivore felling its prey. For whatever reason, these hapless, waterbuffalo-like specimens saw fit to post their portraits to the Web. That makes them fair game …

The images in this site were gathered from the far corners of the World Wide Web, in places where dreary, commonplace (commonface) people desperately scrabble for attention by posting their mugs for an international audience to gawk. The images that follow were all posted by people whose message to the World (Wide Web) is “Hey, look at me!”

So look at them — they asked for it!

The very best thing on the site is the hate mail they received (keep a beady eye peeled for the “this little piggy got hate mail” icon) from this idiot. It’s the most elegant, the most complete, and the most amusing destruction of a human psyche I’ve ever seen. Indeed a thing of beauty and a joy forever. Here’s a snippet from near the beginning of the correspondence. People have a lot of time to email on the wards, you know.

i cant imagine how or even if you do have any friends and if you do i dont know how they can stand such a low-life creep like you!

I suppose there are a lot of things you can’t imagine. Most people who don’t have a sense of humor don’t have much of an imagination, either.

But all is not lost. I’m sure there’s a place in this world for uncreative people who aren’t very good at thinking. A hot, loud, malodorous place where they get paid minumum wage.

For your enjoyment, here is a partial list of the site (mal)contents.
