Yeah dude, fuck off.

I've seen you, and you look like your 25, maybe.

Fuck off.

What?!? No way.

I bet you get carded for cigarettes.

I think getting old is kinda cool, growing into one's imperfections.

Colonel definitely looks older than 25, in photos anyway.

I'd bet he's at least 40.

Getting there.

Have you ever noticed that, in addition to unmistakably looking older than 25 years of age, you clearly resemble that dopey guy on Friends? Has anyone ever mentioned that to you before?

Red Square does look in his twenties - I remember from the photos of him holding a pizza box.

I'll be 30 in January and I think that I've finally gotten to the point that people think that I'm 22, which is much more acceptable and tolerable than a 2-4 years back when they thought (sans make-up) that I was a junior or senior in high school.

One of my favourite incidents of mistaken age occurred while joining my parents for brunch in Crivitz, WI back when I was about 25 or 26. I'd been out to the bars the night before and thus slept in and skipped getting stylish and opted instead for yoga pants/hoody/no make-up.

At the end of our meal, the waitress faced my parents and asked them if they would like coffee or an after-dinner drink. She then turned to me specifically and inquired, "and would you like a glass of milk?"

Another time, my hockey player co-workers at the ice rink asked me if I could get myself a fake I.D. I was 25-years old and married and they were freshmen and sophomores in university. They wanted to invite me out for drinks but assumed that I was 17 or 18 and wanted to hook me up with a good fake if I needed it. Heh.

my moobs finally came in last year. 'bout fucking time.




thirty-three, sometimes mistaken for mid-twenties. has more to do with not acting your age than not looking your age. it's a cliche, but i think music keeps people young. i see buddies of mine & think "he's forty-seven? no way!" playing & still being interested in hearing new things will keep you young in the head.

i'm reaching the beard-may-have-to-go-cause-it's-making-me-look-my-age age.

what an asshole.

The guy carding you is just doing his job. he doesn't need a LOL wager from every 30 year old who thinks he's too old to get carded. Show him your ID and move on.

I used to get gray hair in my late twenties. now I only seem to have gray nose hair. weird.
