Only two posts into membership and you're already in an Unutterably Silly thread playing corrupt-a-topic with aplomb. Kudos, my friend, and welcome aboard the Ship of Fools. Toot-toot!

When will Wikipedia learn that banning a dynamic IP address is trying to identify a criminal by looking for the same kind of shirt they wore one time five years ago and then then gave away?

That could be. Though ironically I seem to look younger than I am. As people still ask me which High School I attend...

Aye, so do I (look younger, apparently). I remember being 32 (I'm only 38 now, though I feel like an insecure 15 year old most times) and being asked for proof-of-age to enter a...what's it called?...noun disappeared somewhere out the back...it's that place where you bet on things in card games and slot machines...a casino! (Bloody nouns! I lose them like other people lose socks). The entry age was 18.

It's frustrating, hey? Not so much that you're judged younger, but that your opinions are often judged based on your perceived age (Hell, I don't think that's fair anyway - opinions should be based on content, and not appearance or age).

Cheers,
Marc

Like most men... I turned 12, then I just grew physically

But I have never been accused of looking younger than I am thank good. I'm pushing 50 and feeling it more and more every day

I resent that! Where does it say that just cause you are male you can not be concerned about the way we look?

Thanks to "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" we CAN be concerned with our looks without feeling un-manly!

Besides... Real men DO eat sushi!

The difference is, we're complaining we look to young.

It's on the back of the membership form, under the section labelled "Harden the %^&$ up!" (that's a Chopper reference, for MJ)

Thanks to that show, the answer to the question "What's fashionable?" is "Whatever I'm wearing" (so apparently that's pyjama shorts and a tshirt that says, "RETIRED: DO IT YOURSELF").

Fugu me!

Don´t be angry with me, please. You know, I was just kidding

I appreciate men who care about the way they look. My husband´s using my facial lotion all the time (he thinks I don´t know...).

Hehe, I usually "steal" some of wifeys facial lotion as well, especially since I'm suffering from "screen-rash" to the face if I spend too much time in front of the computer. Sounds like a bright idea to work as a systems administrator, no?

But she knows about it, cause she always whines about it and tells me to buy my own fraking lotion

I just complain because I feel older than I look. (Especially since I jacked up my back last weekend. Ack! Und Himmel!)

BTW, guys: Oatmeal facial cremes... that's the way to go.

Good morning, I'll have to backtrack on the topic here, but whatever it is I am now getting a bright yellow ad for Laser hair removal & Skin care lotion.
