“Maybe this is what friendship actually is. Geographical convenience, the ability to tolerate one another, and waving.”
Claire Waller, Fugly
“That’s something you get used to when you’re fugly. The minute a Beautiful Person drops something, others rush to their aid. When a fugly person does it, that’s shameful. It’s all their fault. It’s happened to them because they deserve public humiliation. It’s the only way they’ll learn. If they’re lucky, it might teach them a valuable lesson and they’ll try harder not to be so fugly, because let’s be clear on this: Fugliness is most definitely Your Own Fault, Eat Less Move More, Lifestyle Choice etc. etc. fucking etc.”

“Yeah, I’m fine. I just don’t like photos. I’m not exactly photogenic.” Amy shrugs. “So? None of us are, not really. I take photos to remember things. Don’t you want to be able to look back years from now and see how things were?” It’s my time to shrug, as if that’s enough to explain that no, I don’t want to look back and see just how fat and pathetic I really am. If anything, I want to forget it—no photographic evidence means it didn’t really happen, and once I figure out how to con a doctor into giving me a gastric bypass, I can pretend most of Beth: The Fat Years never happened.”
Claire Waller, Fugly
“His name was Dylan. I say was because he disappeared Saturday morning, and she hasn’t heard hide nor hair of him since. She is, naturally, devastated, meaning I’ve had to lay off the first-years are fresh meat comments. To be honest, it’s enough to make me glad I’m not attractive in any way, shape, or form. Why would anyone want to put themselves through it? It borders on the masochistic, if you ask me.”
Claire Waller, Fugly
