What is so bad about Meg Griffin? - Swerve - 2010-03-29
Avoidant your posts kind of make me think of you as Meg Griffin.

In the context of my thesis, I take that as a compliment. But I see how it could be misconstrued to mean something terrible, and I acknowledge that as well.

In your opinion do you feel that you are prettier than Meg Griffin?

That is irrelevant, but no, I do not. Being a fictional animated character, Meg never ages. Assuming an episode never calls for it, her skin will feature no blemishes, scars, zits, or anything that could be considered negative by most people. For me, such things will likely be inevitable.
In this light, Meg Griffin has an advantage over all real people. I suppose in that context, I ought to compare her to an ugly animated character if I wish to prove my point that she is not an ugly person.
edit:
Upon searching for "ugly cartoon character," the first result is this image:

I am not going to post the smiling_meg.jpg again, but from the previous image it is rather obvious that Meg possesses none of this boy's traits. His teeth are in no way symmetrical; his skin has splotches of red distributed in random places; he has an obvious gut, and his band-aid indicates potential scarring. Not to mention, the bomb in one hand and the middle finger in the other indicates that he is kind of a dangerous pimento. Meg is not any of these things, unless one counts her cutting as dangerous towards herself, which would be true. Regardless, she can certainly not be seen as a bad person, and most of her negative traits are a result of her abusive family. In that light, the same people who ridicule her for her flaws are responsible for those very same flaws, making the whole topic all the more depressing.
Regardless, none of that has anything to do with her looks. Either way, I feel that I have proven that there is no objective reason to call Meg ugly based on the way she is portrayed (visually) in the television show.

In this light, Meg Griffin has an advantage over all people, really. I suppose in that context, I ought to compare her to an ugly animated character if I wish to prove my point that she is not an ugly person.
So you're uglier than Meg Griffin.

In an odd way, any living person is uglier than Meg Griffin. Or at the very least, they have the potential to be. As I already said, Meg will never age, and Meg's appearance will never really change. Ours will, and given time, it will change for the worse.
edit: Didn't see the above post, but I believe my current response says it all.

I'm afraid I do not understand. If you do not take kindly to individuals with wrinkled skin, then I pity you, for the elderly offer a world of information and valuable advice.
edit: And why do people still think that Meg is hideous? I have proven beyond a reasonable doubt that there is nothing outlandish about her appearance; what is so terrible about this girl?

Avoidant have you had sex yet? And would you have preferred that your first time be with someone as perfect as Meg Griffin?

How typical. Those who agree that the unwarranted abuse of an individual is justified because of one's physical appearance offer no objective reasoning for their beliefs, and skip straight to personal attacks.
I would say that I am disappointed, but in a way I expected this. Wanted this, even.
To answer your question: I have taken many men and women to my personal quarters, and none of them were as perfect as Meg Griffin. While this statement may seem odd initially, it is actually quite rational for reasons I have already discussed.
And even if I denied your irrelevant questioning: if I said no, arguing that sex was overrated and acknowledged that Meg was in fact hideous, would it warrant her constant abuse? I say it would not, but your beliefs indicate otherwise.
Your responses are complete non sequiturs. I am afraid that -- unless you are actually going somewhere with your personal questions, which I will continue to answer in ways that favor my argument -- I must dismiss your posts as despicable trolling.

This is quite the interesting development. Indeed, one could infer from this that Meg is synonymous with the word "hideous."
Fortunately for my argument, a single google search of "Meg" results in the following:

Just to shed light on why meg is tormented, the original writers for the show explained that they are a bunch of early 20's guys and didn't know how to deal with meg as a young woman. Early on writers started poking fun at her, which fans responded to, and it became an intrinsic part of her character. For the most part, there is nothing that is "wrong" aka ugly about her but rather she was an easy target for the writers and thus sustains a lot of torment.

Would Meg Griffin accuse other people of being trolls?

Not much difference in this picture besides shorter hair and a mustache. I think anyone can agree that isn't a girly looking man.

Perhaps its not that meg is ugly but that she doesnt look like the public wants her to. Like in the eps. where Brian and Stewie travel between dimensions and a "pretty-er" version of meg is seen walking around.
(Thx Ninjas!)

The problem with Meg is that she's not in the kitchen.
