Default Dating service that bans ugliness comes to Canada

An exclusive online dating service that attempts to weed out unattractive members, allowing only the beautiful through the door, is coming to Canada.

Prospective members of the BeautifulPeople Network submit a picture and profile, and other members of the opposite sex rate the applicant over a 72-hour period, deciding whether they're worthy of joining the coveted community.

Think you would make the cut?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder?

Why do beautiful people need a dating service?

Wouldn't it be easy to doctor your application picture?

Not a fricken chance in hell. they'd light my picture on fire and throw it down the well.

I like the ads from MAd T.V. for their dating service called lowered expectations.

Seriously, do hot chicks really use an online dating service. And how in the modern digital age do we know that snaggle tooth T-Rex didn't heavily photoshop her picture that she took with her camera mounted on a ceiling two blocks away.

I'm tempted to send them a picture of me doing the goat just to teach em a lesson.

Interestingly enough, the creators of the site look shockingly similar to the actor starring in everybody's favorite youtube video "My New Haircut." Nice work ###### bags. (Youtube link possibly NSFW, language)

That's just one of their filters. Anyone who uses firefox for superior internet browsing performance is clearly too nerdy for consideration.

Whats to stop you from sending in a hot model picture from a sears magazine just so that you can string along some hot but stupid chick and then crush her when you show up at your first meeting weighing 300 pounds with a BBQ sauce stained Duran Duran T-Shirt thats two sizes too small.

Of course, she'll probably show up a couple of 100 pounds over weight with a nasty toe infection and a she-mullet so heinous that Jesus himself started snapping seals in a vain attempt to end the world.

^^^ People already do that... You usually need to look for people with more than one pic and at least one candid/group pic.

They probably have some sort of rules like that.

I like that. They could be the hottest thing on two feet, but could be the biggest, most completely idiotic, non-intelligent selfish jerk who also happens to laugh like a bellowing walrus and chews on their forearm hair.

But as long as they look good, romance blossoms, right?

That is lame. I'd bet that those guys also don't know the first thing about dueling with Light Sabers either.

Actually, this might not be such a bad thing. It could sort out a lot of stupid, shallow people and pair them up with each other, effectively saving others the problem and hassle of having to deal with them in the dating arena.

ROFLMAO.

Wasn't she a land whale? I thought someone had posted pictures of her.

I bet if she got refused her friends would come to her rescue and lambaste the people who created the dating website with an article in the Herald.
