Someone who (if nature had their way) would look ugly. But, as a result of using various methods (cosmetics, diet etc) they manage to achieve an average or above on a scale of attractiveness.
Way to Spot a Polished Turd:
1. Give the person a score out of 10 for attractiveness.
2. Then, work out their beauty product score by looking in their medicine cabinet and counting how many beauty products they have, divide that number by 3 (rounding to the closest whole number).
3. Take their beauty product score away from their score out of 10 for attractiveness.
If the person scores below 5, they are officially a polished turd.
Example of a Polished Turd:
Tori Spelling when she starred in, the 2003 made-for-TV film, 'A Christmas Carol' and looked relatively OK.
Joe: Look at, the twins, Kate and Fiona.
Kyle: Apparently, they are identical. Which is funny since Fiona's hot and Kate isn't.
Joe: Yeah, Fiona's always applying make-up and bursting spots. Looking at Kate, who's not bothered by how she looks, goes to show Fiona is a big polished turd.
