"It all comes down to this: I feel like shit but I look great"
Today's world is one where it is important to make a statement. It's not so much who we are as a group as oppose to who we are as individuals. We are judged by the clothes we wear, food we eat and even sometimes, unfortunately, judged by the color of our skin. We live our whole lives trying to figure out how those around us perceive us. We want to stay up to date and 'in' fashion with everything we do. Looking great is a craze that has been defined and redefined by companies looking to sell their products. We constantly criticize and objectify ourselves because we have been caught up in a whirlwind with monster money-making, profit driven companies. We turn to material products to define ourselves losing our human self completely.
