Do the students know any other ways of describing us? Can anyone point me to a big list of adjectives to teach them, so that I don't have to hear this all the time?

Well if a person is not beautiful or handsome they may say "ugly" or "very ugly". However, if you feel you are not ugly this may not apply to you and you may have to endure these adjectives. Why don't you teach them to say "teacher, you look stunningly marvelous today" or "when I grow up I hope my children look like you". This one's a gem: "teacher, is your boyfriend Brad Pitt?" Hope this helps and good luck.

'Teacher, you look like Barbie, and you're boyfriend could be Ken!'. Or 'deluxe Barbie', 'princess Barbie'.
Me I'm 'Shrek'.

Do you like "Yer lookin' mighty fine today, ma'am"?

If not, I have a few students you should avoid.

I like to morph this: Rugly

and to our topic starter how about teach them: "fugly...opposite" that'll have them rolling in the isles. Hope this helps.
