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.
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
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.
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…
At that rate she could be a great great great grandmother 5 years after her retirement and would definitely make it to great great great great grandmother...
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
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.

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

Coincidentally, the decline of smoking probably had something to do with this.
I never thought of it, but you're probably right. Most everyone I know has quit smoking by around 2003.
And lead in the air. That dropped off significantly.

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
The actress who played Mrs Kintner in Jaws was only 45 when they filmed. She looks mid 60s by today's standards.
For those who don't know who you're talking about

those were a rough 45
Fucking Richard “I’m bald and greying” Dreyfus’s was only like 35 in Jaws.
He aged 20 years between American Graffiti in 1973 and Jaws in 1975.
and it's only going to get better

Go on...
Know a woman who was grandmother by 28.
Yep, her daughter had the first child at 14, too. Apple, tree, you know the drill.
I'm gonna hang out with my friends.
I'm 14!
This took me way too long to understand (nearly 3 minutes).
At first I understood it, differently, in a much worse way.
How else could this be read?
And what's the worse way?
At that rate she could be a great great great grandmother 5 years after her retirement and would definitely make it to great great great great grandmother...
Anime is adding the letters “ILF” to every character.
edit: this is fine.

Oooh! So it's chemicals in the water! Can I buy supplements from you to fix this totally real issue?
something something gay frogs..
Grandma in real life: dead
Two world wars and it was those stairs
For my grandma just one world war, but it was those fucking stairs
Yep. COVID.
Honestly, its rare that you see ugly or old anime characters. Especially if they're girls/women
Nah, the old wise sage always finds a way to make an appearance in most anime
fair
One Piece enters the chat
Uhh, ugly and old characters come up pretty often. Though, this might depend on what genres you watch.
Top: 85yo
Middle: 85yo
Bottom: 35yo
I know you're making a joke, but for the uniformed:
watch Jojo
Lisa Lisa (bottom actual grandma) is in her 50s, but training in hamon decreases the effects of aging.
Man, I forgot Jojo used to be about hamon. I gotta rewatch pt 2

Niiiice! 😁👌
I came here looking for this comment, thx
But she’s not a Grandma when she’s 50, is she?
Muriel is the most robust 85 year old I've ever witnessed.
Grandmas in Soviet Russia: They keep your bike from being stolen.
Why do Soviet grandmas look exactly like the Pythons' impression of a grandma?
Probably because English grannies looked quite similar.
Because when you want the best representative of an old woman, the one you should chose is the one that literally doesn't age...
It’s a cringy thing.
Obaasan?
