One day in class, students and I were ‘doing the dozens’. They called me fat [crumb shelf], old [in my 50’s], bow-legged [parenthetical expression] and bald [play area for mosquitoes].
I responded. ‘One morning, about 30 years or so from now, you are going to look in the mirror and be shocked to see the elderly relative you look most like right now. You also will see my face over your shoulder and I’ll be laughing.’
He’s a dead man. Assuming he’s right, that she’s using the camera, he’s saying he thinks she’s old. If it really is an app and he’s just kidding her, he’s saying he thinks she’s old. Lose-lose.

That was in the 1980’s and I’m still laughing.

When 800 years old you get, as good looking you will not be.

I’ve had many people telling me I do not look 71. I always wonder what they want from me.
