Is there are reason you’re hanging out with people who are down on themselves? Anyway here are some options:
* Make it a ‘fun’ discussion of your worst features. So you could say, “Oh, I know what you mean, I’ve always hated my ELBOWS!” and you start sticking your elbow up and staring at it.
* Take what they say seriously and follow up on it. “Do you think that makes life a lot HARDER for you?”
* Give them an improvement tip: “You could always change your hairstyle or start dressing better.”
* You could change focus: “But you’re beautiful on the INSIDE, that’s what counts!”
* State a fact of life: “We’re all gonna look worse when we’re older, so we might as well enjoy what we have now.”
* Ask why this topic is relevant: “Did someone TELL you that?”
* Ask how they feel about it: “Are you feeling sad about it?”
* Ask if they have a plan: “Are you going to try to improve?”
* Ask if they have any good points: “So what’s your STRONG suit?”
It depends on how often this comes up, but people who run themselves down a lot tend to make bad company.
