2) You can be 2 from rich, funny and good looking. 3 is impossible thats why 2. You can be rich and sexy but then you can't be funny, you can be funny and good looking but not rich and you can be rich and funny but not sexy. You can only be 2 from 3 not 3 from 3.

That's a comforting idea for some men to tell themselves, but the reality is that funny people are usually smart people as well, which helps to make many of them successful. Being attractive can also help make you successful, and it certainly doesn't harm the process. And there are nothing about the genetics of intelligent people that keep them from being attractive, and vice versa. There are plenty of attractive, charismatic and funny men and women, who are also successful in fields like politics and media production, and in much of the corporate world. Being well liked is an advantage in getting ahead in life- you are more successful at interviews, more likely to leave a favorable impression on superiors in an organization, do better in sales and negotiations, etc. There is nothing about being attractive to counteract that- it either had no effect or makes you more likely to succeed and be liked. So realistically speaking, there's no reason that people who meet all 3 criteria wouldn't exist.(##RESPBREAK##)8##DELIM##ElhonnaDS##DELIM##

This plus the fact that attraction is all in the eye of the beholder. What one person finds attarctive may not be what the next person sees as attractive. It's all relative.

Ya, but it looked like you were destroying my argument when I was the last quote :P

@Skree- I personally like guys who argue philosophy on the internet- I am marrying one. I just found the original comment to be rude to the rest of us, out of left field, and completely illogical, and so felt the need to say something.
My brother and a number of his friends, for example, and considered pretty universally good-looking, and several are business owners or have other successful careers, and they made the week we hung out in the DR almost a nonstop floor show with their antics- they had all the family and everyone else dying laughing the whole week. And, they were also really nice, nice guys- dancing with the old ladies, playing with the kids, having fun with the staff. So I find it to be funny that when women discuss- quite calmly- those kinds of characteristics as being attractive, someone would spout so vitriolic and defensive a response which is clearly untrue.
@Drag- I agree. I don't know if you were here for the scars discussion, or down in the QOTD where they talked about attractive characters from video games, but there are definitely a lot of things one people would think is attractive, that another does not.
@Azazel- I will declare, here and now, that in no way did I mean to dispute your comment. If anyone needs something signed, have them e-mail me =D(##RESPBREAK##)8##DELIM##ElhonnaDS##DELIM##

I think all tech companies make their products last just long enough to not receive a wave of complaints, but still forcing its customers to buy new stuff all the time.
