So...No.

Worst Advice Column

This column is situated under humor, but it's really not. I mean, really not.

Because someone is going to take this seriously.

‘Dear Checked Out. You’re disgusting,’ Barrington wrote in response to the boy’s query.

‘I don’t mean your attitude or your personality. I mean you, physically. You’re gross. You have puss oozing out of you face, your limbs are all wildly different lengths and you smell like a saddle after a long day’s trail ride. That’s why all the girls in your grade are dating juniors and seniors.

‘At 15, you are currently at the absolute zero of male attractiveness and I’m including when you’re in your 90’s and even a few weeks after you’re dead.’

This is all a big no.

So you take a kid, who definitely being a silly, but who is FIFTEEN, and you tell him he's disgusting? That he smells and is gross? 

What the hell is wrong with you?

This is the type of response you start typing without thinking. This is the type of response you need to apologize for later, because you made a 15 year old cry! He is probably insecure, and uncertain about his looks, self conscious enough as it is and you tell him, in print that he's disgusting? I don't care if the kid is oozing pus, you don't say that to someone.

This is more than just a humor column. This is trash.
