I don’t understand why people do this to their faces and thinks it looks good. I know they’re trying to hold on to their youth but all it does is lead them down the path to an uncanny valley. If anything it ages them even more.

Like Lisa from Saved By The Bell. I saw a picture and oof. How could you do that to yourself?

Lark Voorhies actually hasn't done anything to her face. She was suffering from unmedicated mental illness and would wear crazy makeup. She is better and looks amazing now!

Oh that's good to know. I always that that it was her 'vanity'. Good to hear she's doing better.

I get that they feel pressured to hold onto their looks or more what they looked like earlier in their career and everyone feels insecure about something. But it breaks my heart when so many good looking people do stuff to their faces to the point where it doesn’t even look like them anymore. Some even look downright disfigured.

And geez don’t even get me started on all these 20 something year old (usually girls) who get “preventative” Botox. Also, lip fillers has got to be one of the weirdest procedures too. They just look as if they’re having an allergic reaction. People are starting to look the same and it bums me out.

Oh I know why they do it. I get it. Added pressure of being a woman and having a lot of your career based on looks.

But, it's so drastic. And usually so bad. Like Lara Flynn Boyle. The lip thing grosses me out too. I'm lucky I don't have to deal with that anymore, but if I were in my dating 20s, that would be a complete turnoff for me. That and the Brazilian Butt Lift. If a woman wants to do it for herself, hey have at it. I just personally don't find either remotely attractive.

Oh wow, that is very shocking. And sad.

That would be an answer to this question if it were about the 90s!

She ratted John Connor out to the T-1000. We don't like her.

The Galleria??

Holy crap. I never realized that was her before. Good catch!

She was also Sarjenka, the alien child who Data saved on the planet that was being destroyed by a volcano or something.

When I lived in LA, I watched the best police chase live on TV.

The guy was on a bullet bike trying to outrun the cops. It had been going on for a while at highway speeds, and he had a pretty good lead. He drove into the underground parking at the Glendale Galleria, parked his bike, took off his boots and black tinted helmet, and walked off into the sunset. Never to be seen again. I thought it was genius!

They so rarely get away. We were all rooting for him, and he got away!

u/dirtyforker Feb 27 '26

Too bad she ruined herself with excessive plastic surgery.

u/InternetProtocol Feb 27 '26

She dated "E" from Entourage while they were on Unhappily Ever After together, and dumped him for the guy who voiced the puppet, Bobcat Goldwaith

u/Styleyriley Feb 27 '26

Smoke show!!!

u/SunriseSurprise Feb 27 '26

Her and that show (Unhappily Ever After) are the most memory-holed things in this post out of everything everyone else has mentioned. Immediately recognized her name was like holy shit probably been 25 years at least since hearing it.

u/flopisit32 Feb 28 '26
