The "Fug Girls", as they are known, use their weblog to ridicule and satirize a variety of fashion disasters, whether by established stars or by starlets. Among the celebrities frequently appearing in the blog are Maggie Gyllenhaal, Courtney Love, Kevin Federline, Bai Ling, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Bobby Trendy, Courtney Peldon, and Ashley Peldon. Additionally, the blog regularly features the questionable style choices of celebrities who are often lauded as fashion icons in the mainstream media, such as Sienna Miller, Chloë Sevigny, and Mary-Kate Olsen.
The authors' use of the word "Fug" is discussed at length in the Go Fug Yourself FAQ. They sum it up by stating that "Fugly ... is a self-inflicted state, and no one seems to excel at dwelling in the depths of fug quite like pretty people with money to spare and little sense of how to spend it." Commonly, "fugly" is believed to be a combination of the words "fucking ugly", although the authors claim it is a combination of "fantastically ugly."

Famous quotes containing the words content and/or site:
“Thoughts tending to content flatter themselves
That they are not the first of fortune’s slaves,
Nor shall not be the last, like silly beggars
Who, sitting in the stocks, refuge their shame
That many have and others must sit there,
And in this thought they find a kind of ease.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The site of the true bottomless financial pit is the toy store. It’s amazing how much a few pieces of plastic and paper will sell for if the purchasers are parents or grandparent, especially when the manufacturers claim their product improves a child’s intellectual or physical development.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
