You look as if you've crawled out of a young offenders' institute. Go upstairs and wash that muck off
The quote, "You look as if you've crawled out of a young offenders' institute. Go upstairs and wash that muck off," reflects a strong and perhaps sarcastic critique of someone's appearance.

This line is from "Dishing the Dirt" by M.C. Beaton, indicating the author's characteristic blend of wit and social commentary. Through this dialogue, she captures moments that reveal the personalities and dynamics between characters, often using humor to highlight flaws and drive home the importance of self-care and appearance in social interactions.
