I find it pretty humorous when Scoble gets a hard on every time he's able to bring up FriendFeed.

Plus, the site is REALLY ugly. Like, really, really, really ugly.

You can clean up ff to make your eyes not want to explode with userstyles

I really shouldn't have to. That doesn't look like it would do much anyway. The site has no structure, the logo is stupid, and the default user icons are ugly.

More importantly though, I'm not into the functionality it offers.

I think this is an important point. We tend to view useless things(at least to ourselves) as ugly.

Not necessarily, I think Twitter looks great ;)

To each his own I suppose. The reason I was drawn to friendfeed was it's look n feel. Can't think of too many that I like more. Probably why none of the desktop or other versions have had any appeal
