People who say "sorry I look like shit, I'm not wearing any make-up" are literally apologizing for looking like a normal human being.

This thought popped into my head and has made me feel uneasy lately.

"Sorry I look like shit, I'm not wearing any make-up!" "Sorry, I'm not wearing any make-up" "I'm not wearing any make-up, I look shit, I know."

I hear it all the time. In person, in YouTube videos, on TV, everywhere. People are basically feeling the need to say sorry for nothing - as if they are expected to continuously look like something other than their natural selves and not doing so somehow warrants an apology to another person. Or as if stating that you "know" you look "shit" without make-up is some kind of tactic to make the other person feel better that you've acknowledged something you THINK they are thinking about you. What the?!

If you're guilty of this - stop that absurdity right now! No more! Whether another person is into how you look or not - showing your natural self is something you never have to be sorry for.
