I'd have been shot on the spot, I'm sure.

Shot, drawn, quartered and then branded and tarred and feathered and left at the fountain at tu.

I'd have been shot on the spot, I'm sure.

What if you think both sides are equally bad?

First day of the boy's last year of high school.

 

[Sparhawk]

I'm not meaning this as disparaging,, but he doesn't look old enough to be more than freshman or sophomore.

I just must be getting old.

 

[Dave]

I was just going to say the same thing! That kid is a SENIOR?!?

 

[Gared]

Oh thank god, I'm not the only one.

[Dave]

I get that IET.

 

[Bones]

I wasnt gonna comment but that and one other thing, is it just me(I dont know the familial situation and all) or does Tins genetics run really strong? I looked at Tin's user icon and at his son and was like "wow proof positive genetic phenotypes are a thing"

 

[Bubble181]

Let me quote this wise old guy I know who always reacted to such comments the same way:

Nah..he's always looked young for his age. He looks like 13 or 14 to me, tops.

Strong genes in my family. A pic of me as a kid looks like a pic of my mom as a kid, which looks like pics of both my kids as kids. It's a common topic at family gatherings.

My son is 16 and looks similar age wise, so I think you're all just getting old. I think all teenagers look like fetuses now.

Or you're comparing him to high school kids on TV.

Mine's 2 months from 18. Trust me, when I see him around his peers, he looks like the young one in the group, and he's actually older.

 

[Sparhawk]

Nah, I actually work with the teens at church at times, and never think the 20-somethings that play teens are real to life.

Tin's kid is just younger looking than his age.

One of my cousins, who's starting college in a few days, is 6'3", but because of his facial characteristics and very skinny build, he looks like someone just stretched out a 12-year-old. It's both funny and a little bizarre.

He grew up into a huge man with a boyish face.

A friend I've known for about 15 years (and haven't seen for as long) asked if I'd be her +1 this weekend. So I went and got gussied up.

 

[blotsfan]

Not sure if you can see it, but the weight loss is really noticeable.

 

[PatrThom]

I can see it.

Nick, you look like a professor of Political Science in that pic.

Oh, dear.

Not in general, but in this particular photo, with the suit and the hair, I hate to say it, but

you look like Harry and Lloyd managed to have a baby.

Late 70's fashion that spilled into the early 80's was kind to no one. Me, included.
