How do I say this....”LOOKS DISCRIMINATION”, and occasionally “RACIST”...(S). Will the left go bonkers or try to get a free meal?

Laurie Anderson lyrics of *My Eyes*

**if I were the president
if I were queen for a day
I’d give the ugly people all the money
I’d re-write the book of love
I’d make it fun**

Pizza Hut in Denton, Texas, gave us our pizzas one night, 1968. We'd been working the feedlot all day and were covered in smell. We smelled up the booths all around us so the manager said if we'd hurry he'd comp. No problem. It was amicable as we and the manager understood.

I’ve already seen enough lookism on TV, which values a face over intelligence.

I hear Ben Roethlisberger uses the same pitch to score free drinks here in Pittsburgh.

If he allows his pic to be taken ... deal!

He could also cut a check, knowing it would be unlikely to be cahed, at least the first time.

It is their choice to do so.

It would not be my choice to eat at such an establishment but to each his own.

See how easy that was?

Indeed. I have posted that matrix here on FR a number of times. But, that matrix still leaves the “Hot” a very subjective thing. What is hot? And who gets to decide?

In the end, I suppose the answer to my query is, “The restaurant’s owner.”

“They would make me pay double.”

Hmmm. They would pay me double to eat there; with my dashing good looks.

Wouldn’t some people after being given their bill be so offended they would never go back?

LOL...yes, the owner doing that would be stupid, because if you alienate the ugly people, the normal people, and only favor the beautiful people...then who will be the customers.

I see the eye candy all the time at trade shows. Most amazing women I saw was at the Heli-Expo in Houston at the Russian built helicopter booth.

If you have ever been to China, there will not be many free meals given away. There is a lot of guilt there.
