Maybe It Was Just Me?

The other day, I asserted on The Cheesecake Maven's blog that age 14 is an ugly age on everyone. Now that I'm thinking about it, maybe it was just me- acne, the beginnings of a unibrow, a little puberty mustache and big front teeth that are barely contained by my lips. We won't even talk about the fashion. *sigh*

What are you talking about? I see a damn cute 14 year old who would break all the girls hearts if he cared about girls. Sadly I think our town of origin lacked a quality pool of gay teens. That guy grew in to the current talk, dark, and handsome MG I know.

You, Darling, are begging for a reaction here. Here it goes:
Enviably thick glossy hair, great coloring, a fantastic neck and I adore the eyebrows.
So there.

You look GREAT!!! There are many a teen today who only wish they looked that good! I'm willing to bet though, that the other siblings in your home didn't have this wonderful teen look, I remember those years well! (Run! It's BULLET!)

I'm afraid to even look at my pictures from that age. It seemed as if my parents went out of their way to make me look like a dork - and generally succeeded.

You have nothing to worry about.

Oh come on! This was not a fishing expedition for compliments! This was to illustrate my point that a 14 year old is not the prettiest phase we go through. Who looks back on themselves at that age and says, "Damn, I looked good?" Maybe when we look at ourselves at 18, but not 14. It such an awkward, zitty age. Feh!
Scott, I think I do have a picture of you at that age. You had clear skin and white blond hair. Not too bad.

I know 14 was probably my best year. I mean, I had gigantic glasses and a fuzzy perm. I was HAWT.

I thought you were handsome, honey, zits and all. And if you put on a Ted Baker shirt and some lynx you could definitely pull here in MK.

14 was bad, I admit, but you my friend are smokin in that school picture.

Oh, honey, you must be smoking. Click on the picture to enlarge and take a closer look. 14 is just butt ugly. Now, your twins might be the exception of course. I don't want them to read this and have them think they're hideous becuase they're just not.

My acne was WAY worse than yours my friend, still is

OK, I clicked and enlarged it but sorry, still good looking.
