So... the genie offers to make me look better by increasing my looks to only slightly below average? Noice!

Would I be pretty and daft enough to not overthink and complicate everything and to finally be happy?
Ok then. Let me be a himbo. The ladies may take advantage.
I thought I blocked this shit hole instance a couple days ago. Apparently it didn't work. Time to add them again!
Why do you keep coming back, OP?

If we're talking 90+ percentile then no question I'd go with smarts and use it to have a big impact on some field of science. Otherwise I'd probably still pick smarts but it's more of a tossup.
The latter. I guess that's kinda what I have already and I have no complaints. I'm aro/ace anyway so I don't really need the stunning looks for dating purposes. My relatively decent ability to learn new things never ceases to entertain me
Easily smart and slightly below average attractiveness. It's pretty trivial to boost your appearance by 2-3 "points" with some decent fashion choices, makeup, working out, and good grooming.
Worst case, I use my high intelligence to get a high paying job and use some of the money for plastic surgery.
I pick the grilled cheese sandwich.
Clever but slightly below average attractiveness? Yes, I'll take that. It would be a double upgrade for me.
I have always taken the metaphorical red pill when given a chance. I would rather live in pain and suffering knowing the truth, than living in ignorance and happiness.
And I donβt mind being ugly. Iβm a misanthrope anyhow. Being ugly just means you are more likely to be left alone.
I want the intelligence, but could I settle for my current level of attractiveness?
