We're old, and we're gonna die. Merry Christmas!

Wheeeeeee!  :lol:

Nice to see famous people with minimal or no plastic surgery. (Also not dead yet.)

Robert Smith looks fucking scary, though.

I saw John Goodman on the Jimmy Fallon show the other night and it shocked me. He got OLD.

Who I just discovered was in prison for "Falsely imprisoning a rent-boy" WTF?

Yeah, I just let my goatee  grow out, despite having a bunch of gray hairs in it. But I guess if it's good enough for Peter Gabriel and Boy George, why shouldn't it be good enough for me. But, my word, aging sucks. I've like fat and stuff now. It tires me to tie my laces...

I DO NOT LIKE the getting fat part of getting older. I actually have to DO STUFF ON PURPOSE to maintain any semblance of a figure. Like running and squats and shit.

It isn't even working that well, like I'm not one of those "in great shape for 42!" women. I feel more like I'm holding back a tide of fat and the moment I lose my focus it will burst the dam and I'll suddenly weigh 400 lbs.

Probably true.  :lol: I'm 42 too! Women have it rougher I think. A guy can get away with having a beer gut for some unbeknownst reason. But yeah, exercise is not for me, so I'm just letting the pounds multiply. Where it ends nobody knows!

At least he's not making some grotesque & feeble attempt to stay "looking young".

I hope I have that same peace of mind when I get into my 60s.

Nobody seems to be doing lifts anymore. They just shove shit in any which way to take up the extra skin:

Yeah, the people, men and women, who looked the best in there are the ones who just went "yep, getting older, let's do this thing!" instead of trying to cling to the last vestiges of youth.

Did you see Robert Smith? Holy shit. It's both terrifying and depressing. Seriously, please, please Robert Smith, just stop.

If I saw that coming at me I'd cross the street.

I suspect that Dylan has been building an interesting old coot his whole life. He might even have looked forward to getting old, in some ways.

I think you can do that, start cultivating qualities before you're old that will make people want to be around you later on, and some people do that. Others just refuse to think about it, and when their shit starts falling apart, they have some kind of panic reaction and REALLY fuck things up.
