uglies

The unattractive bunch

The uglies refers to a state of feeling unattractive or down about one's appearance: I woke up with the uglies and didn't want to leave the house.

The phrase usually appears with "the" and suggests a temporary mood rather than a permanent condition.

In aviation slang, the uglies can mean dangerous weather conditions that make flying hazardous.
