Speciesist discrimination. When I tried to start a "World's Ugliest Lemmy User" contest and announced that all of the rest of you tied for first place people got awfully pissy, but feel it's alright to mock these sweet, innocent little balls of love.
Are we just saying the Chinese Crested is the ugliest breed at this point? Seems a bit cruel to reward people for breeding ugly dogs, especially if their conditions are unpleasant (consider the pugs with their breathing problems... having a tongue that won't stay in their mouth doesn't seem like it's much better).
