I'm going with badass too. Pretty people can get in trouble just like everyone else but a badass can teach trouble to mind its own fucking business.

Physical fitness, which a badass possesses above an average individual, tends to come in handy when doing any common physically demanding tasks (ie, enduring inclement weather, moving furniture), when you need to not be sick, and when you want to slow your degeneration into a decrepit old man/woman by as much as possible.

People tend to idolize badasses more (see: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Chuck Norris, Georges St-Pierre). Being badass is a sign of character. It's an accomplishment, whereas beauty is often something that is handed to one upon birth (or paid for with plastic surgery)

I'm already pretty damn ugly, I figure some kick-ass talents would be a nice addition.

I would prefer badassery. It would be more useful, and I hate people who are beautiful and stupid.

Badass. Because who cares about looks when you can fuck anyone day up who doesn't like how you look. Plus "beauty" is relative to the person viewing the object so what beautifull to one person may not be to another. Badassery is badassery no matter who sees it (sometimes they just think its cheesy).

Also this seems like a very well disguised thread questioning people on where they go with the "nice guy" option or the "total jerk" in games with different chat options (i.e. the Paragon/Renegade choices in Mass Effect). That's right I'm on to you Old Trailmix.

I'm too much of a softy to be ever be a badass, so I vote beauty. Plus I could do with some charisma and charm.

I don't care whether I'm beautiful or badass, so long as I'm intelligent. And, you know...a good person and shit. That's my opinion.

I'd go for beauty.

I don't understand the mentality of the people on this thread who think badassery is "more useful". For WHAT, pray tell? Getting into fights? How is that in any way a positive? And how many people really expect that they will NEED to save the world? I haven't exactly seen a "need of badass" crisis in a long, LONG time...

The OC's description of "beauty" includes charm and charisma; why be a tough guy when diplomacy can avoid / settle the situation before violence breaks out? Furthermore, beauty is also associated with grace and finesse. Take all the brawn you want; I'll just flip you down with judo, dice you with my rapier, or use my pinpoint accuracy to snipe you between the eyes before that minigun of yours can even wind up.

Depends what I feel like doing in life.

Maintaining a relationship, starting a family, and just enjoy life the way it is, then Beautiful.

But what if I see that there's lots wrong in the world. That changing needs to get done? Well I can't do it on my own. I need people to follow me, and people don't follow just anybody. A strong figure, who can take charge and lead the proletariat revolution. In that case I'd take Badass.

If I was hawt, I would probably get more ladies. At least, until they discover my personality is just terrible.

One can be both. Sephiroth is a good example of a good looking character who is intimidating. So is Vicious from Cowboy Bebop. When I play a game, I tend to mix the two. I don't want to immerse my self to being an ugly fucker who acts like a douche. On the other hand, I don't want to be a whiny 13 year old from a JRPG who is a complete pussy. A medium must be reached.

I'd rather be the average person, with a little of each, but if I have to choose... badass.
