From what I’ve heard it’s largely from less smoking and more sunscreen
and a shitty diet and no exercise.
Are you saying that makes you look younger…?
Also waaaaaaaay less drinking
My brother is an early 70’s born gen x, I’m a late 80’s born millennial. From what I’ve seen drinking and smoking being publicly accessible and socially acceptable made them way more prevelantly indulged in.
Guy on left can afford nice shirt.
This gives a pretty good explanation of the psychology
true. i saw some people who were 80 and looked like 250. like walking corpses. incredible. probably waaay too many sunburns, etc.
Should be in shitpost
Yep, It’s not only cigarettes, but air pollution too.
And the gabagool
And the gobbledygook
What is gabagool? Looks like some kind of salted meat.
Sounds like the name of the ghost in a horror movie.
Or a 60s horror-themed band name…
Tony and his Gabba-Ghouls
Listen to their greatest hits: Oh Poor You! (Wish The Lord Would Take Me)
At an Irish Bar In Hell
Beware Three o’ Clock
Got No Spleen, Gene!
It’s nothing but fat and nitrates!
It’s New Jersey Italian-American for capicola. Kind of like prosciutto
Recently watched The Seven Year Itch (1955) and the man claims to be 37. He looks like a young 50. Cigarettes.
It isn’t cigarettes. It’s being outside in the sun a lot more that really ages your skin. Cigarettes are bad but they don’t age people nearly as much as UV does.
Recently did a watch of Rear Window (1954), and yeah, there’s a scene in the beginning where the main character’s nurse calls the main character “young man”. Main character (Jimmy Stewart?) was 46 at the film’s release.
Wild.
That’s called acting. ::smug face::
They cast people younger and older than their character role because the actor’s age is secondary to they’re ability to play the character. ::smugger face::
Just uh … don’t look too much into what roles John Wayne and others played when it came to race, back then. They uhhhhh…had different standards back then. It was a different time, you see. It wasn’t…it uh…it wasn’t looked at the same way back then. Ok gtg byeeeee
Sunlight is the big factor in premature aging of the skin and especially face. Cigarettes are said to be a big factor too, as is hard liquor to excess.
When I was a kid, restaurants still smelled like tobacco.
Didn’t really stop until early 2000’s
I remember this on older busses and coaches as a child, and the ashtrays on the back of seats. Mustve been wack in the 1990s with how much indoor smoking was still accepted.
I don’t know what it peaked, but by the 90s presence of smoking was trending downwards
There were still smoking sections in restaurants for a bit.
It took government regulations in the US to slow and stop this practice
Just watched One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and Nicholson was 38 during filming. I thought he looked 50 too.
Nah he looks 38 lol
I’m just a few months behind that… no he does not.
As I get older, the more I agree
Maybe a ripe 32 if you ask me.
16 going on 35.
No, he definitely looks well into 45+
I’m 38. He does not look 38.
Well he doesn’t look 50 that’s for sure. His hairline isn’t great, but people in their 20s can have a fucked up hairline.
He does. Its just the hairstyle
And the creases.
You mean wrinkles?
Yep. English and their 100 case-dependent meanings.
Bottom half looks 38. Top half looks 48.
Lots of very important things, but mostly the smoking.
But it isn’t? It’s crazy how Lemmy just overconfidently states this multiple times even it’s actually sun exposure that aged people so much back then .
Also having kids.
And that nobody has AIDS.
Wait. I know that drugs control symptoms, but is AIDS now cured?
You won’t die from it anymore, and I’m pretty sure that as long as you’re medicated, you won’t transmit it either.
Oh i didn’t know that someone can’t transmit it if medicated, that’s pretty cool. Guess it explains why you don’t hear too much at all about others socially demonising those with aids anymore
The one in the left married at 23 and his 4 kids.
Ugh married his 4 kids too that’s sick
That explains a lot, what with the sleep deprivation and drastic lifestyle changes brought on my most kids.
30 is the new 20
As a 30+, that’s so sweet, and so wrong :p
Great example of how stress ages you
Not stress, smoking, drinking and no sunscreen does that to you.
I don’t think stress is any less, but actually more than in the 90’s
Few people are as consistently stressed as Tony Soprano. Sure, he’s got the big house, the big car, the ridiculously understanding wife, but he also has had to kill a few family members and more friends than is usually healthy. Once, he got a good friend indebted to him then burnt down his restaurant. All this while trying to keep two steps ahead of the feds. That lifestyle would age anyone.
I’m talking more about the 90’s in general
All due respect, you got no fuckin’ idea what it’s like to be Number One. Every decision you make affects every facet of every other fuckin’ thing. It’s too much to deal with almost. And in the end you’re completely alone with it all.
None of that was real though lol.
To be fair, I don’t know much about James Gandilfini.
Jim Gandalfini? Yeah I knew him. I knew him when he was a young, unshaven actor, before he fell, and spent forty years battling the foul Morgul stench. He emerged from that an aged man, his stubbled chin showing hints of grey, body and mind exhausted in spite of a great victory over the dark side. He took to wearing nothing but bathrobes, and rested heavily on his staff when he had to walk. His recovery was heavily reliant on resting his mind with the weed leaf, and rejuvenating his mind amongst the gardens and feasts of middle America, off the beaten track, as aeons passed him by. Soon, the great evil mustered its strength once more, and he again took to the battlegrounds of the Midwest, or as it was then known, middle earth…
Neat TIL
Wouldn’t it be great if that was true
Edie Falco in one of the later seasons gave one of the most impressive and stunning acting performances that I have ever witnessed on TV.
When she screams at Tony to get out of the house, she could shatter hearts with that voice.
Just came to think of it seeing as this is a shitpost or whatever.
Awful example. The 90s had WAAAAAAAAY less stress than today.
I’ve heard it attributed to drinking more water.
Pantera though
Must be a Nazi-loving stoner.
Pantera is nazi?
Edit: Thanks for letting us know. Just looked it up, in 94 a seig heil, then in 2016 or something that and worse, from the lead singer. Shit, I listen to them a bit, but never did before, I had no idea just thought it was kind of catchy and different from my normal rock and blues and jazz and electronic.
Phil Anselmo always came off like an angry white supremacist, but then in 2015 he expressed regret about Pantera’s past use of the confederate flag.
Dimebag’s views were racist as fuck. It’s really a shame considering all his musical talent.
That sucks, I just got into them a bit, not much but working out just as a change of pace sometimes, and I endorsed them to a few people too. I guess I need to read about bands before I listen to them.
I’m sure there are plenty of metal bands I could get into that aren’t nazis I just have to look for them.
I think that’s a running joke in metal circles. You hear a band that sounds awesome and you spend the rest of the show researching to see if they’re Nazis before buying any merch.
Lawsuit intensifies
It’s the micro plastics
Liquid Plastic Surgery in a Bottle
The bottle is your testicles.
Every time an old tells me something is unhealthy, mostly an old salt I do treework with, I tell him his generation is the reason why I have plastic in my nutsack and to keep his pack a day health advice to himself.
There weren’t microplastics in their bodies to speak of, this is like 95% just in the past two decades.
Yeah the micro plastic is a preservative.
Ha ha ha, sorry my bad. Don’t give the American Chemistry Cunts (edit: chemical industry trade group,) any ideas, they will pay our lawmakers to say that shit for real.
