I remember in high school lampooning the druggies - whom my brother briefly joined - because not a one of them had anything resembling athletic, artistic or academic prowess. They took drugs because other druggies would accept them. They couldn't fit in anywhere else, but damn, get stoned outside the school, and you're one of us.
IF - you could do something to yourself - that would make you so outstandingly attractive, people would stumble over their words and try NOT to stare - OR - make yourself look so damned weird that people notice - with revulsion -
Which would you pick? Well, truth be told, some people really can't be made all that better looking even with world class surgery -
But any nitwit can make themselves weird looking and get attention.
