Eye of the tiger. It's the thrill of the fight.

So I've just walked around the center of San Luis Potosí and I could be writing about the amazing historical buildings, impressive colonial churches and bustling streets with all kinds of shops and street vendors. But I'm not gonna do that. You can google that stuff up and read experiences of other backpackers or whatever.
What cought my eye were the girls. Surprising, I know. Anyway, there are some ravishingly looking women around here but about 90% of them have this bad habit of drawing their own eyebrows.

Okay ladies, I don't know why some of you feel the need to mess up your eyebrows. There is nothing wrong with them being big and bushy for god sakes. Alright, unibrow is something different, but you can always pluck couple of hairs here and there and it's gonna be all good.

But where is the point when you decide "Screw it, I'm gonna fuck my shit up." and you shave it completely, then take centropen or whatever is near by and draw it? How did you even get to that point? Now, there are some pretty good pieces of facial art that copy the normal shape of an eyebrow. I don't like it, I don't see the point of it, but okay do your thing.

Kind of normalish looking eyebrows. Still pretty messed up though.
What makes me angry is that some of these girls must have taken a ruler to help them and create this monstrosity:
What is that? That's not right. That's not how it's supposed to look like at all! There is like almost right angle in there! It's time to put that sharpie away and take a good look in the mirror and do some deep thinking about your life choices at this point.

But that's not all, then there is this "magnificent look" that will bring all the boys to the yard:
What the actual fuck. Are you trying to get the square root of your eyes? It makes you look stupid and evil. To me it just looks like you're contemplating taking over the world with brutal force and dark magic.

And now the final form of this heinous crime against esthetics:

This is serious. Not only you look extremely dumb, but you also single-handedly managed to cut down all your facial expressions to just two. Surprised and scared. (Okay, it doesn't look like it on this picture but I hope you get what I mean.) This is the look of a porn actress when the "plumber/electrician/cable guy" takes off his pants. "Wow I didn't expect to find this down there!" And you also look super evil.
So congratulations now you look like a constantly surprised and scared idiot. But there is one positive thing about this. If you go to a screening of Rocky Horror Picture Show you fit right in.

Your eyebrows don't really matter. Dammit just take Frida Kahlo as an example, she even had a moustache and how many artsy wannabe teen girls adore her? Not saying she was a beauty queen, just putting it there that nobody should care too much about that small space above your eyes.

For the love of god don't shave it and then finger paint new ones with the skill of a kid with special needs.
