a skin condition where pores become clogged and an inflammation appears on the skin...almost all people suffer from it at some point and, unlike popular believe, doesn't make someone unattractive and isn't a social disease

A gay skin condition probably caused by all the crap the FDA let's food distributors put in our food that causes red bumps to come up on your face, back, chest, and sometimes your arms. Sometimes acne is so bad that some people (Like me) have to go on Accutane only to be let down by it 5 months later because your acne is so severe and you got conjuctivitis and bloody pores for nothing.
Dermatologist: Okay, well since the Proactive, the deoxyzyfane and the other thing I can't pronounce hasn't worked for your acne for more than a month, I guess I'll put you on something else...
Bobbie: Okay...
Dermatologist: It's called Profynozylophate (Cough) Accutane (Cough)
Bobbie: Alright...
Dermatologist: Side effects are nothing, just you might contract conjunctivitis (Cough) or have your pores bleed, lose some hair, or in some rare causes might die since it nukes your face.
Bobbie: I didn't hear anything you said
Dermatologist: Well it wasnt important anyway so when can we get you on it?

Something almost everyone gets at one time or another. It's most common in adolescents who are going through puberty, and is due to the abundance of hormones flowing through their bodies. Usually it starts in early teens and ends in the early to late twenties, occasionally it will extend past thirty and sometimes even into someones forties or fifties.
Acne is not due to dirt, oily foods, or chocolate/sugar. Milk has been linked to increase in acne, however. Stress/anger can cause hormonal changes which can cause acne. Excessive touching of the face is also a bad idea. Genetics also play a key role.
Washing ones face will help, however people who have acne don't necessarily not wash their faces. If the case is especially serious, one should consult a doctor to be put on an anti-acne drug. Common ones include: Erythromycin, tetracycline, and clindamycin.

Bobby has had acne since he was 12. He's on a topical, and oral solution. He visits a dermatologist every two months. He still gets acne though, i'm glad i don't have his gene pool.
