Dang Marigold, low self-esteem.
I love the hair texture in this strip, did it get even better? I just noticed.

And that would be the easy solution to all her problems. You want people to notice you, Mari? You want guys fawning all over you? Two words.
Tank.
Tops.

Yeahhhhhh, if you feel your appearance isn't mainstream-pretty, you've got two options:
1) Don't care about the opinions of others, and OWN the way you look (ie, "yeah, so I have a unibrow, but I like it and I'm against the idea I have to pluck it to be attractive, fuck y'all haters)
or 2) if you WANT to be more mainstream-attractive, DO something about it.
You only get to whine and wallow in self-pity if you've given option 2 a reasonable shot and it still hasn't worked. (Mind you, people who go for option 1 may still experience anger and some insecurity due to the fact that they're expected to look a certain way, but that's different from "woe is me, nothing can help my miserable state!" self pity.)
Marigold both wants to be more mainstream-girl pretty and yet is unwilling to put any effort into presenting herself attractively. She also seems to believe that "pretty girls" are all just somehow naturally pretty, although it takes effort for just about everyone.
I'm "pretty" now, and it takes a lot more of my time than my routine in hs, when I was the nerdy bespectacled girl with bad skin and oily hair. (Daily showers, hair products, learning to dress well and paying attention to what I wear, consistent morning and evening skincare routine, constant tweezing/shaving/plucking and pricey good-for-your-skin makeup--along with some help from mother nature and passing out of my teens.) The difference being, when people told me in HS "you'd be so pretty if you took care of yourself more!" I just shrugged, because I knew it was my choice not to shower daily or do the whole circus of hair and makeup care and to dress kinda blah. "Being pretty" wasn't worth it to me at the time, and I was fine with that.

--- Quote ---Marigold, Kevlar isn't very good at stopping harpoons because they're too slow. They'd probably go through it like thick cloth.

This is truth. Though if you're right next to the guy wearing a Kevlar vest, stab him in the neck. He'll die faster.
Odal:
Awww, I wanna give Marigold a hug. She's not ugly at all!
(And no, I don't want to hug her for the boob smoosh... you pervert.)
