Seven things I hate about being hot
Katty Purry: I'm the hottest, sexiest, most charming popstar there will ever be!
I'll let my body do my talking for me, and I don't need to claim anything (Emy/unsplash.com).
Old, rich, and hot? It's a dream come true
(Christine Stevens) I know, it sounds pretty lame, this title. But just today someone wrote an article:
“Hot people complain about the ‘horrible experience’ of being good-looking” is the title of this article written by Alex Mitchell, who is a guy -- not exactly a hot guy either. I don’t mean to be judgy, but go ahead, look him up.
He probably really hates hot women because they have failed to respond to his particular brand of erudition, working for this great newspaper called The New York Post. Yeah, it’s pro-Trump.
That was his subtitle, not mine: “What a pity to be pretty.”
And even though he called his article “Hot people,” the entirety of the article focuses on, surprise-surprise, hot women.
Did the Buddha by any chance teach people how to become more beautiful? - Yes. Karma.
Yesterday's "hot" is "meh" today, and they don't even have that! It's gone, so it's on to the next...

Yoga is the way to health and hotness
He doesn’t get into how hard it is to be a hot guy — because maybe it’s not that hard. I don’t know.
So here are the things Alex Mitchell, dripping with resentment, writes about “pitiful” hot women and their travails:
— People assume they are dumb because they are hot.
Shush. Maybe it's all in the eye of the beholder.
— Married women think hot women are after their husbands. (Really? I had no idea that was a thing -- mate poaching?) More:
