"for those of us that need a little help"
Mar. 7th, 2005 04:50 pmMy rage cannot be described. I heard this ad on the radio last night, and if I'd had access to the internet, you would have been forced to endure a temper tantrum. You may yet.
So the ad started out as a man and woman at the gym, the guy complainin how it "just wasn't doing any good" and the woman goes on to talk about this cosmetic (laser!!11!) surgery place..."for those of us that just need a little help"
WHAT THE HELL!?!?!? When did it become acceptable to basically say "surgery for those of us who are a bit on the ugly side" WTF, Mate. I was utterly disgusted and thoroughly enfuriated. Where is the Book of Beauty Standards By Which All Must Abide. Let me tell you, that is one book I would heartily approving of burning. I wasn't aware that if you're less that what society considers beautiful, you need help and should get cosmetic surgery posthaste.
Either tell the world to fuck off or go to the gym and stop eating crap. In fact, do all of the above.
*seethes*
