Ever wondered why criminals and deadbeats are often very physically ugly? Or met someone creepy looking who turned out to be a terrible person? I had a housemate last year who seemed "off" from the beginning: tiny face, droopy eyes, always had this empty look. Had the most boring personality too. Anyway he trashed the place and made so much noise I had to run around apologising to the neighbours after him.

Moral of the story: don't trust ugly people. I'm finding housemates for my new place and even though they'll be paying me rent this time I'm still not letting anybody view if my gut says no after seeing their photo. Beauty is law.
