A term that is massively overused. It usually means a man/woman who only judges by looks and not by personality.

Many ugly girls consider guys shallow just because they get turned down by them and vice versa. A lot of ugly guys think girls are shallow because they get turned down. But neither of these are true.

The true example of shallow is when a guy/girl base someone's personality on how they look. If you're confused read below.
I was hanging out with my friend the other day who is quite a bit better looking than me (I'm not ugly, he's just hot I guess). So he and I are hanging out with this girl from school and I decide to test something.

Early that day I tell her a joke and she kind of laughs. So about 6 hours later, I have my friend tell her the exact same joke, word for word and she cracks up like it's the funniest thing she's ever heard.

Apparently the same exact joke was funnier when told by him, just because he's better looking. Avoid girls/guys like that at all cost.

lacking depth, judging base on the surface
Person 1: "You are a bad person."

Person 2: "Name an example. Just exactly what did I do wrong?"

Person 1: *silent*

Person 2: "Can't huh!? We don't get along because you seem to already judged me by the number of friends I have on facebook!"

*pause*

Person 2: "You're pretty shallow."

Get the Shallow mug.
A person who cannot access the imaginative, creative, understanding, emotional part of their brain. Shallow people are brainwashed by the media, they can't think for themselves. They tend to like hilary duff, britney spears, and mainstream rap and the little mainstream rock that is played. They serve no purpose to this earth. Their future holds long lines of angry customers that want their hamburger, and the words "we love to see you smile".
see deep depth creativeprepmainstream music
They cannot see the little things, like nature, all they see is what the media tells them to see.

Guy 1: I wish I had like a crap load of money, and then maybe Janie would talk to me?

Guy 2: Why do you like her?, she is shallow, and if you did have all the money, she would spend it and leave you with nothing and move on to the next rich guy.

Guy 1: Nope, she is not that type of girl.

Guy 2: Oh yes she is, and anyway doens't Sally like you?

Guy 1: GROSS, are you serious, she is soo ugly

Guy 2: you know what, I think your right maybe you and Janie belong together, becuase you both are shallow

To base the format of a structure only on appearance.

Get the Shallow mug.
Some one who is a complete dick or dickweed that uses anything and everything against some one just because they dress a bit different or they have different interests then person A. They will ignore person A just because they think your ugly or they will act like you never knew them from any stand point relating to the past in any sense. Some one with no grace and dosen't give you nothing in return, "no gifts". They think they are perfect and own the world when in reality they couldn't care less about you and are probably jealous if they continue treating you like your the backdrop of the worlds greatest disaster. I loathe shallow people they can go to hell and when they get there they can eat the devils shit.
Ian is such a shallow cock-sucker, All he cares about is his stupid existence "which is nothing" and then he proceeds to complain about everything else and that dosen't really do much to help his disposition. Life is addictive bitch!
