The Ugly Bug Ball Has Landed…

I was listening to the radio yesterday when I caught wind of a brand new dating site, one that seems to be taking the UK by storm. But it wasn’t a typical dating site. There was no mention of the beautiful singles you could be meeting tonight.

No, the twist was that this was a dating site for…ugly people.

Welcome to The Ugly Bug Ball. Shit just got real.

I’m all for sharing the love, but I do hate some of the conclusions that people arrive at to compensate for a lack of confidence in their looks.

Firstly, “Ugly people have had a tougher life and therefore tend to be more considerate and more loyal. A recent TUBB survey also proved that they try harder in bed.”

Is that a fact? Ugly people try harder in bed? I can see the logic, but come on, let’s be honest. It’s complete bullshit. A tooth fairy fantasy made up to keep the walrus from weeping. It’s paramount to saying that if your features are in the right order, you’re the kind of cretin who sits back and waits for the next blowjob.

I don’t buy the correlation between being ugly and being a good shag. But I can live with it. After all, the site seems to be developed in a good spirit.

Apparently over 15,000 UK folks have signed up to it already. That’s impressive going for a site that boldly insists only the aesthetically challenged may enter. I can just imagine some of the cheesy intro lines being passed back and forth from inbox to inbox.

Behold the Ugly Bug “dating truth”, as they like to call it:

a) We don’t charge much as the pretty sites and b) Ugly people have lower expectations – for a first date a Family Bucket will usually do the trick.

Way to add morbid obesity in to the ugly equation! Brilliant.

I won’t be adding my own avatar to The Ugly Bug Ball. For obvious reasons, I hope you understand. It would probably be the final crushing blow to my fragile ego if I couldn’t get any action on a site that’s dedicated to the romantically disadvantaged.

But it’s an interesting creation. If I’m still single at forty, expect to see me at the Ball!
