Speaking of Ugly...

Professor Ambrose Penwose, Kiwi
I thought…therefore I was.

Speaking of ugly…(Those who are offended may be using too much makeup...or not enough?)

Ugly is considered a “safe” topic. No one is going to come up to you and say, “I am ugly and I don’t appreciate it!”
Yet safe is not always a good reason to continue.

If you feel that you are ugly and someone speaks of it to you, rest assured you are not, at least in their eyes, for no one will speak of it to someone who is.

I don’t like to say someone is ugly, not even in a humor context. No one is ugly. Maybe we should say unpretty? I don’t like that word either.
Let’s go with Stinky. Stinky is a funny word. A lot of people are stinky. Perhaps you know someone who is stinky odoromously? This is not about them

I have to speak softly because my Xwife knows I’m talking about her. She has ears like an African Elephant, (That’s the ones with big ears right?)

There are stages of stinky. Sort of stinky, Kind of stinky, Pretty stinky, (An oxymoron when used in its ugly form,) Plain stinky, Downright stinky, Really stinky, Blood curdling stinky…up to and including Penelope, (Stinky is unexpressed but understood.)

Penelope is my Xwife. How do I put it into words?
Try this…If Helen, Queen of Sparta, looked like Penelope, Queen of Death, TROY would still be alive.

I’m sorry. I got so involved with stinky I forgot what I was going to say?

That is stinky too.
