Life is fluid. Everything is fluid. Go with the flow until you get enough information so that it makes sense to you. That’s how I’m handling things these days.

when is society going to address the elephant in the room...the privilege of beauty. Good looking people do better and get everything easier in life, and I think they should pay reparations to the rest of us! What could possibly go wrong?!

Brittney Spears doesn't seem to be doing great. And you know, Lyle Lovett has had a good run.

Hey, what makes you think I could not have made Marty Feldman and Peter Lorre feel good about themselves back in the day?

If I identify as ugly I get to speak for ugly people. I think. You know, just like white people who seemingly identify as black, like Chelsea Handler, so they can speak for black people.

But I'm not sure what the rules are. Between you and me, sometimes I think they make the rules up as they go.

I also wont resisi the temptation to share this gem: https://youtu.be/fDobegVKIxA?si=iooivW-NjOAngTkg

i had an old girlfriend who dragged me to the Ryman to see Lyle Lovett...she had a crush on him, so beauty is surely in the eye of the beholder

Getting with the RIGHT woman is hard. Getting with A woman is mostly a numbers game, that starts with the effort.

of course, women are always drawn to musicians and tall guys, so that's a game changer for Lyle despite his, uhh... "interesting" facial features.

Kurt Vonnegut once said that the secret to sex appeal is to dress well and smile a lot. Its good advice.

Lovett does both. Hes also VERY witty.
