Unrealistic female body standards (no nose)
the perfect woman. she can’t smell when i shit my pants.

~~Peach~~ Pauline has no nose and it looks like QBert is trying to make up the difference.
itt: people confusing Pauline with Peach
I'll accept a little bit of blame for putting the image description in the alt text of the post instead of in a spoiler
