Judging books by their covers

YES. I admit that I judge a book by its cover. Knowing very well that a book with ugly cover may have nice content, and a book with nice cover may have lousy content, but poorly designed covers just don't catch my attention. And if they can do so well with the content, why don't they spend a bit more effort on the cover?? First impression is very important. It takes a few seconds to drive home the bad impression, but a few months or even years to overwrite that. Just like how chief clerk thinks everyone is a slacker.. (well... didn't I just provide a counter-argument?) Come on I'm human.

I do judge a person by his/her look. That IS what I want to say. Today got a little... unhappy I would say, about a tutorial classmate. Lesson was over and I was queueing up to ask the tutor some questions, then this freakin drug addict cut queue!! What the hell, I just hate people cutting queue. And please pardon me, I don't like his face! My tutorial class just has too many shit faces. Drug addict face, acid-corroded face... argh!! Not only their faces, but their dressing and behaviour as well. Honestly speaking I hate drug addict face and guai lan face.

I do believe that a person's look does reflect on his/her personality/character. An innocent looking lamb may very well be a wolf in disguise, but I think occurence is rare. And, I don't believe a fierce looking guy would talk like a little girl.... come on knock it off, all of you do think along the same line deep inside you right??

I'll rather spend time examining decent looking people, than to waste time searching for good souls in hopeless looking shells. Male/female alike.

  • I still dun subscribe to that theory... haha....

    Alot of people are fundamentally the same inside, and looks can be very decieving. Personally I know some friends who on first impression look dao, or guai lan, but actually very nice people. So dun judge too quickly yah?

    I'm sure you easily have quite a few such personal examples too.

  • I just know you would say stuffs like that...
    Jason and Freddy also look nicer lor!! It's not so much about their look, but their actions.. their actions make their faces look worse.
