Lookin' good.What am I talking about? Take a look at yourself after you get sick. All that lost weight. Skin sticking tight, exemplifying your cheekbones. And the paleness of the skin, with small flushes of red tinge? Flawless. I mean, they sell skin whitening cream in Asia, so that's gotta mean you look great.
And you do. If you're a bit hefty, you've lost some weight. If you were thin to begin with, well, models are skeletal, and your ribs look like a washboard so you're downright gorgeous now. The constant upheaval of your stomach contents burns away the protective enamel on your teeth, and the tender, white insides are revealed to the world (although it's recommended that you chew gum constantly to counteract the smell - and who doesn't love people with fresh breath?). Your eyes are glazed over and look larger and more inviting, along with that natural redness that surrounds them in place of any unnecessary eyeliner. And you can truly shake it in the dance floor, what with how cold your fever is surely making you feel.
Short in short, there is nothing about being sick that doesn't make you desirable to everyone and everything that passes by.
But how effective is it, really? Being temporarily sick is just that: temporary. The weight loss is great, but it all comes back when you're healthy again. Your skin returns to its natural color, and the shakiness stops lending that extra 'oomph' to your moves when you're on the dance floor. Suddenly, being the picture of perfect health has become detrimental to your image. I find myself licking toilet seats, high fiving homeless people on the streets, taking up jobs as an elementary school janitor, just to get my sick fix.
I mean you. You'd do that. Certainly not me. I don't have a problem.
Not when I look this good.
It hurts to look this good

Sickness gets a 3/5: You look fabulous, but side effects may include anal leakage, temporary blindness, and death.
