    When I was in my twenties people thought I looked older. Now I’m in my fifties, and people think I look much younger.

      Yeah, around that age is when the accumulated damage of poor choices start becoming more evident, IMHO.

      I have a friend who doesn’t sleep, has ADHD, drinks and smokes a lot, uses vyvanse, and he still looks fine as fuck, despite being a little bit overweight. He’s on his late 30s though, good appereance genes for sure.

        I guess I’m just perpetually middle-aged looking. Mainly, I’ve gained belly girth, and lost hair, but my skin’s still pretty good because, despite using nothing but soap on it, I stay out of the sun.

          Whoever said there is no advantage for us being forum nerds, there you go! (joking ofc, but not really if you think about it…)
