The Fug of Whoooarrh

December 17, 2004 9:24 AM

The good ladies of Go Fug Yourselfhave created an elegant little Web freakshow devoted to the fashion aberrations of the rich and frumpy. Less annoying than the shrill harridanry of Rivers mere et fille, hipper than Mr. Blackwell's "Worst Dressed", and much safer for work than AwfulPlasticSurgery.com, it's a must-see for anyone whose veins, like mine, are a-fizz with the coruscating combination of Schadenfreude and diet Coke.

Great stuff. The bit on the Harry Potter cast is hilarious.

Isn't it great to know that someone can spend 10,000 on an outfit and still look like crap? Great site, I will spend many happy hours there. The outfit on Jaleel White totally made my day.

Fugly means "frightfully ugly"? Was there something wrong with "fucking ugly"?

Do people really expend this much energy thinking about other people's clothes? Especially other people they don't know and will never meet? Fashion arbiters belong in the same phylum as the dung beetle.

That hardly seems fair to the dung beetle who is hard working and provides a useful service.

I kind of like Daniel Radcliffe's new Goth phase. It suits him. Rupert Grint just looks like guys I knew in high school.

Also funny and in a similar vein (and with bonus drunk Wolf Blitzer!): Veiled Conceit, specializing in the New York Times wedding announcements. If somebody would do this to my alumni magazine I might actually look forward to receiving the damn thing.

there need to be more websites that as deftly point out how retarded 'celebrities' are as this one

I've just lost an hour to AwfulPlasticSurgery, but I'm feeling a whole new affection for my lines at the moment; there are far worse things than looking your age. Ta.

Love this!

"I pledge allegiance to the Fug of the United States of America. And to the fugpublic for which it stands -- one caftan, cut like a minidress, stuffed with boobs, with cleavage and leg-baring for all."

Is that Melissa Rivers on Fugly?

Does LeeLee have no one to step in and tell her that she looks like a deranged transsexual with a Charlie Chaplin fetish and a jones for Hammer pants?

It doesn't get much better than that.
