work pretty

Description of a man or a woman who, by normal standards, is average in the looks department, however, when standing next to some of the homely individuals in your office, they look like a perfect 10.
I was so excited that Jenna said yes to my date proposal. She is the hottest girl in the office and I thought all my friends would be jealous. When we arrived at the party, my buddy's couldn't understand why I was hanging out with such and average looking girl. I learned the hard way that Jenna is only work pretty.

Pretty Boy Floyd

A name given to Charles Arthur Floyd, a notorious bank robber that operated during the depression-era. Pretty Boy Floyd was one of the Public Enemies during this time period, along with John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson, Alvin Karpis...etc.

Floyd was a native of Oklahoma, where he commited his first few crimes, his first crime being the theft of $3.50 in pennies from a local post office. He was first arrested after robbing an armored truck with an accomplice, in which he was incarcerated for 3 years, during which his wife, Ruby Floyd, divored him.

After serving his sentence, he attempted to find work, but to no avail, as few jobs would accept a ex-felon. He then turned to a life of crime carried out with various accomplices, one of which was with him during his armored car robbery.

After many robberies, he then reconciled with his wife and moved away with his wife and son. Close to this time is when he met George Birdwell, a fellow bank robber. With George and two women whom for one of which Floyd persued a relationship with, the Floyd gang was established. After his friend and accomplice George Birdwell was killed in an attempt to rob a bank, he then slowed down his bank robbing career, as he slowly crept up the ranks on the Public Enemy list.

He was also, by many accounts, falsely accused for murdering several government agents in an attempt to free a incarcerated criminal being transported(who was ironically killed in the attempt). It is unknown if the two had worked together, but it is highly unlikely.

One day, when Floyd and accomplice Adam Richetti were sitting near their car, which had broken down and they were waiting for his other two accomplices to bring help(later to find out they were apprehended), a farmer had spotted the two along the road and alerted authorities. Floyd managed to escape while Richetti was caught after a brief firefight with police.

With no transportation, as well as the inability to use roads due to police activity, Floyd was forced to retreat to the woods, where he roamed for three days before stumbling across a family's farm. The family fed him and gave him clothes, but the police discovered his location a few hours later.

Seeing no other option, Floyd fled across an open field and was gunned down by agent Melvin Purvis(which later proved conflicting as to who truly shot him as many claimed different stories). Floyd's last words were, "my name is Charles...Arthur...Floyd!" after Purvis asked if he was "Pretty Boy Floyd", a name which he hated.
"Pretty Boy Floyd" originated after witness's claim he looked like "a pretty boy", and the name stuck.

Richard Petty

The greatest NASCAR driver who ever lived. Totalling a record breaking 200-career wins, Richard Petty has since become known as simply "The King". Richard also totalled an amazing 7 championships, matched only by the late Dale Earnhardt Sr. Also notable is the fact that Petty had SEVEN Daytona 500 victories. He also won 27 races alone in the 1967 season, 10 victories in a row. Richard Petty earned his 200th victory at the Pepsi-Firecracker 400 at Daytona International Speedway in 1984. Petty would go on to finish 10th in points in the 1984 season. Another amazing fact is that fellow cup driver David Pearson and Richard Petty finished 1-2 63 times, also a record between two drivers. After 1984, aerodynamic developement and tire wars did Petty in. He would race another 8 seasons until 1992, his best points finish in that time being 8th in 1987.
