"You'd be pretty if you didn't have squinty eyes" Okay, but what the actual fu-? What's the point in telling me that?

Jokes on those guys,because I'd still be ugly without the "squinty"/"small"/"ethnic" eyes 馃槀馃槀馃槀
No, but seriously.
At least once a week someone has to point out that my eyes are "weird" though usually people don't go that far with it (except for when I was in middle school/high school I definitely went through a lot of bullying over my damn eye shape/size because kids are mean) but occasionally- most recently this morning- I do get the whole "you'd be prettier if you had normal eyes, your eyes are just too small" or "ethnic eyes don't look pretty on you" comments... I just laughed awkwardly the first few times it happened but now I just say smartass/sarcastic replies back because I'm petty.
I don't understand what people get out of saying that crap though...?

Now I want to see your eyes.

@Imsleepy Honestly, I don't think my eyes look that bad at all or look any more unusual than the next persons but it seems to be an issue with other people for whatever reason...

@NaturallyPeculiar I agree, there is nothing unusual about your eyes at all.

@Imsleepy The only thing I can think of is because where I live people tend to have bigger more straight set eyes so mine are considered "unusual" to them. It's annoying though since they're really not unusual just on the small side and slight downturned which isn't uncommon for people of Lithuanian/Slavic ancestry like me but eh. People just like to say stupid things I guess.

People definitely like to say stupid things. Have you seen half the post on this site? 馃槃
Though, I wouldn鈥檛 give any heed to personal insults. @NaturallyPeculiar

@Imsleepy True, but usually online people say the most stupid things because they're behind a keyboard and would most likely never say it to the person's face if they met them in real life, so it kinda boggles my mind when people say such stupid things in person/real life without even thinking just how ignorant they sound.

Yeah, you鈥檙e right. I鈥檇 probably be a bit surprised in person at first as well. I鈥檇 have to fire something back at them myself. 馃槃@NaturallyPeculiar
