Beauty Is on The Inside you 'Bug Bull'

I know there is a latest news thread, but I thought this might be useful for some of the more 'enthusiastic' internet users; I'm signing up myself now!

A new website is out to reveal the ugly truth about dating.

British site TheUglyBugBall.co.uk advertises itself under the slogan "dating for the aesthetically challenged," and claims to be the first of its kind: a matchmaking website for "ugly people."

"It's a sad fact that up to half of the UK is made up of ugly people yet amazingly nobody has ever thought of providing a dating service for them," Howard James, the site's founder, told London's Sun.

"Just because they don't look like Kate Moss or Cheryl Cole doesn't mean they don't have a lot of love to give," James said. "We're scooping up these people and offering them a glimmer of hope - in many cases their first and only opportunity of meeting a member of the opposite sex."

James, reportedly a multimillionaire, has launched a series of "niche dating websites" since the mid-nineties, including sites aimed specifically at people who like dogs and daters over 40.

TheUglyBugBall.com boasts a tongue-in-cheek style that attracted over 1500 members in its first five days.

"Instead of fishing in a small pool of prettiness and getting nowhere," the site reads, "Dive into an ocean of uglies and have more choice."

The website is a stark contrast to BeautifulPeople.com, a dating database that only grants membership to those deemed physically attractive.

Last fall, BeautifulPeople.com reported that Britain was home to some of the ugliest singles in the world. Less than one in eight British men and just three in 20 women who applied to the site had been accepted.

Those rejected by BeautifulPeople.com may want to check out TheUglyBugBall.com, which is designed for individuals with low self esteem.

"If you are one of the millions of people that don't like what they see in the mirror, then this is the place for you!" the site screams.

Despite its gimmicky attitude, James believes the website is really doing a public service.

"Our site allows people who aren't attractive to engage in the dating game without fear of ridicule for being ugly or excessively overweight," he told the Sun.

"By doing this they might actually find a compatible partner - instead of spending years paying for dating sites they have no hope on."

Classic dinner party situation :

"How did you two meet?"

"On a website for ugly people"

Getting drunk and fucking isn't working for these people? Faark.

I'm sure they (we) have all snared someone not so 'good' for a few hours while drunk, but once the beer goggles have dissolved there's a sudden urge to get the fuck out of there.

best country music lyric of all time:

"You're the reason our kids are ugly"
