Weirdly enough anime is closest to real life. They’ve been putting chemicals in the water that are turning the frigging grandmas hot. …or I’m getting old. I’m probably just getting old

[–] norgur@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oooh! So it's chemicals in the water! Can I buy supplements from you to fix this totally real issue?

When you, your mom, and your grandma had children at 15.

I'm fifty. My wife is 49, her friends and my life long friends are around the same age and they definitely include a few grandmas. In 2023 fifty does not look like fifty did when I was a teen. The amount of smoking hot women in their fifties that pass for later thirties and early forties is incredibly high.

EDIT: Case in point, Marisa Tomei as Aunt May. Why Aunt May ever looked like an octogenarian is beyond me.

smoking hot women in their fifties

Coincidentally, the decline of smoking probably had something to do with this.

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I never thought of it, but you're probably right. Most everyone I know has quit smoking by around 2003.

now we gotta get folks to realize alcohol is shit and poison like nic

at least curb the superiority complex people seem to have over drinking large amounts of poison to feel the same as a couple bong rips with 10x the internal damage

The protagonist was a 27 year old actor playing a schoolkid so I have to assume that everyone in the Raimi universe ages about 75% faster than we do

Yeah as a 29 year old I was flirting with a woman I thought was only a bit older than me, then after a bit of making out we were chatting and learned her daughter and I are the same age…

And then they had threesome.

That's what you wanted to hear, right?

[–] Flaimbot@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

and it's only going to get better

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I ain't complaining. Google Photos gave me an album from 2008 and my wife looks exactly the same (hair dye is magic). Sadly, I look like I'm pushing seventy and dating a woman half my age. Nevermind... I'm ok with that.

[–] Gabu@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Because when you want the best representative of an old woman, the one you should chose is the one that literally doesn't age...

[–] balderdash9@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Honestly, its rare that you see ugly or old anime characters. Especially if they're girls/women

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Uhh, ugly and old characters come up pretty often. Though, this might depend on what genres you watch.

Top: 85yo

Middle: 85yo

Bottom: 35yo

[–] Triple_B@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I know you're making a joke, but for the uniformed:

  1. watch Jojo

  2. Lisa Lisa (bottom actual grandma) is in her 50s, but training in hamon decreases the effects of aging.

[–] dalekcaan@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Man, I forgot Jojo used to be about hamon. I gotta rewatch pt 2

[–] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah the whole "stand" thing was just yet another attack on the sanity and coherence of that series. The entire thing is an exercise in suspension of disbelief and faith despite constantly escalating deus ex machina. That being said, chefs kiss.

[–] Syrc@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

But she’s not a Grandma when she’s 50, is she?

Niiiice! 😁👌
