MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Metalhead and self-proclaimed looksmaxxer Owen Reynolds used a hammer to break several of his cranial bones in the hopes that it would reshape his skullet, sources report.
“I know this is a little extreme, but I’m getting desperate,” Reynolds said. “I’ve already tried other looksmaxxing methods, like suctioning my tongue to the roof of my mouth to improve my jaw structure, and wearing my ‘Butchered at Birth’ shirt less often so I wouldn’t scare girls away, and nothing’s working. I’m starting to think the issue is my skullet, as I’ve noticed that it’s a little lopsided. I figured shattering my sphenoid and temporal bones would get it back to a more symmetrical, congruent shape that will attract more members of the opposite sex. It’s too early to tell now, especially because I’m really dizzy and in a lot of pain, but I hope this works.”
Reynolds’ friend Chuy Ramos was skeptical of his friend’s decision.
“I just don’t think Owen needed to resort to this,” Ramos said. “I told him he doesn’t have to get this extreme, and if he just made some minor behavior changes, like showering or wiping off his glasses every once in a while, he’d be a little more presentable. Hell, if he just shaved off his hair entirely he’d probably have better results, because I imagine the vast majority of women would prefer a bald head to a nasty, wispy skullet. He could even just give up on looksmaxxing altogether and focus more on being a cool, funny guy to be around. Just a thought.”
Online streamer and looksmaxxing influencer Braden Eric “Clavicular” Peters was proud that he had broken through to the world of metal.
“I applaud Owen for having the balls to engage in this type of hardmaxxing,” Clavicular noted. “I’ve seen some pictures of him, and once his cranial bones heal he will look like a total chad. If not, he can always register in my looksmaxxing course where I’ll teach him to use anabolic steroids and crystal meth to ensure he stays both ripped and cut, and it’ll only cost him $50 a month. I predict he’ll become a total alpha if he does this, and he won’t even need to throw out his ratty Megadeth hoodie.”
At press time, Reynolds had also shattered his kneecaps to better accentuate the way they look in cargo shorts.
