Of course it is. I'm 183.265 beautiful. Beat that.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The dentist once filed down one of Rick's teeth that slightly jutted out. To me, it took away a part of the charm of his smile.

Supposedly there has been quite a bit of scientific research on what is considered to be a beautiful face. On a show on TLC I saw a few years ago, they had come up with some sort of geometric something or other, and produced a "mask" that represented the "perfect" proportions of the human face, which was said to be universal to all races and both genders. It's been a while so I don't remember specifics, but it was pretty interesting.

I like people's quirks in their appearances. If everyone looked the same, that would be really lame. "Lame" is not a word that is normally in my vocabulary, so that goes to show just how lame it really would be.
