Don't Hate Me Because I'm Not Beautiful

Endangered Ugly Things. Sure, they're not cute. But they're at least as important as your fuzzy thing.

Stop Big Government interference with my Fuzzy Thing!

Howcum "curmudgeon" is not on that list? Ain't we ugly enough yet?

I didn't know that curmudgeons were endangered. Is their natural habitat being taken over by the invasive Snarkus interwebus?

And if they're ugly, we should give some of the species better names. How can a Sagala caecilian compete for attention with the Appalachian Monkeyface Pearlymussel.

Isn't being ugly just God's way of saying "don't breed"? How else do you explain my lack of a girlfriend?

Our pet iguana has a face like Dick Cheney, but we love him anyway.

The little creatures of nature, they don't know that they're ugly.

Don't overlook (or gaze too long at) Heterocephalus glaber. Aliases: sand puppy, naked mole rat. Mug shot.

I also enjoyed Ugly Overload.

I used to think my fuzzy thing was the center of the universe. That is until I read this.

Now I can't help but think that bumping some of those uglies together would be awesome.

Mention of "fuzzy thing" has brought on comments by spicy nuts, freebird, and rawhide -- it's an eponysterical hit parade!

Your lack of a girlfriend who's much prettier than you, maybe; I bet you could take your pick of downright ugly chicks, and if you'll take ugly and fat you might strain yourself with hot sex.

I would swear to know what I'm talking about except I clearly don't: every one of the dozens of hawt babes who've eventually ditched me have been at least as attractive as I am (and often nicer people too).

I think the Ohio lamprey is beyond ugly, or beautiful or any other judgement call that we humans might come up with. The lamprey simply... is. But maybe not for long.
