Why do so many people use the fact that they are smart as an excuse for being ugly, when so many people are both smart and attractive?

Pic related.

Ugly people are gross and should leave /lit/ and stay on /r9k/ with the rest of the inferior scum

This. The really important philosophers like Wittgenstein didn't give a fuck about how attractive they were.

I think ugliness leads to very intense contemplation

I can buy this. For example, it could easily incite people to wonder what's wrong with them, then maybe they could think about if beauty even means anything, and then they could confront meaning itself. Or they could just lash out for the rest of their lives and die ugly AND stupid.

How is that guy above wiggie ugly?

I find that even when a an intellectual or artist is unattractive they tend to have enough of a characteristic look that they're pleasant to look at,

Well, pic related is not the best example because desu Xenakis looks badass and aesthetic as fuck, and his battle scars and amazing music highlight this fact even further
