They say beauty is only skin deep, because below that we're just a mess of sinew, bone and slippery sloopy organs

And then, buried deep inside, below all of it…

The poop.

I think the original adage was beauty is only skin deep but ugliness goes to the bone.

I knew a kid who found skulls genuinely beautiful, he collected animal skulls. He was really fucking weird and I would not be surprised if he had some human skulls somewhere.

Ugliness as in personality, not appearance.

Always assumed the phrase was referring to your attitude. Beauty is only skin deep is something you say about a handsome asshole or a beautiful cunt. If you look max you are often neglecting a personality. Hince their beauty being only skin deep. Look any deeper into them and you see a cesspool of a personality. I'm not a doctor though so what do i know?

No, originally, it was all appearance. You should have seen this guy. They never thought it was possible until they saw this guy. Ugly to the bone. There's no other way to describe him.

Sloopy is a word that deserves broader usage.

But dat ass is made of well-developed muscles and optimal pelvic bone structure. They put in the work to get those glutes. It is deeper than skin both physically and metaphorically.

Some. times....

Whenever I see that phrase, I have to sing it to the tune of REM's Everybody Hurts.

Am I the only one?
