But I can't find a guy hot unless he comes across as smart.
How useful is looking like Jon, then? If you're smart enough to be hot, does it matter how you look? And if so, why not shoot higher (or at the very least, taller)?
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If I only had a brain...
You just flipped my syllogism.
I said
Not smart => not hot.
I did not say
smart => hot.
There are many men who are smart but not hot. In my little world, there are no men who are hot but not smart. Anyway, I think Stewart is classically handsome, if wee.

Ah. Since I don't find Jon Stewart classically handsome, I missed your point. I think he looks very normal, with extra short thrown in. Seems an odd request from that POV, if you're getting free choice.
Colbert, on the other hand, is straight up pretty.

When Colbert drops his super-serious comedy newsman face, he is scarily gorgeous.

I think a lot of Jon Stewart's cute comes with his brains.
Yes. But I can't find a guy hot unless he comes across as smart. It's a thing.
Funnily enough, the guy in line in front of me at the grocery store tonight looked like a slightly handsomer version of Jon Stewart (around the same height), but he kind of looked like he'd had the funny removed surgically.

Hmmm, I may have blown my good birthday karma wad on the mallomars as someone seems to have stolen the flowers my mother sent me.
