looking young

Post by grillis » Thu Dec 15, 2011 12:30 pm

good or a bad thing

i'm still told I look 16, feels like people really don't take you seriously if they don't personally know you and women don't really seem too interested either. older folks seem to think it's a good thing though...

^^^^ You look a lot like my mate Todd when he was 14 (he has a beard in the school photos at 16 though so that's not an indicator of how old you look there.)

I'm 29 and still get ID'd on the reg... hated it as a teenager, but I've really started to LOVE my babyface in my late 20s. :D

I think you look 17 in that picture (it's the hat). It's not a bad thing.

just having a read on wiki about the UKs laws.. apparently you get asked if you look under 21 (or 25 even in some places) although you only need to be 18 to legally purchase. could that be why?

You could always take up chain-smoking.

I've heard it ages you pretty quick

you look early 20s in that picture, your face has filled out and you clearly aren't a teenager.. give it 5 years and you will appreciate it, getting ID'd isn't a big deal anyway

haha man that sucks. i have to ask people for id occasionally when selling games or movies, feel like such a dick sometimes cause of my appearance. gave some kid a speil the other day when asking him for id because i have lost all concept of what a 15 y/o is supposed to look like. i actually made this thread as a result of having served a guy at the store today who finished a year after me at school- looked about 10 years older than he did as i remember him 4 years ago

fair play.. if I saw that picture without context I'd say you were between 14 - 17

I've got a mate who is young looking and pretty short, got ID'd once in WH SMith buying A Touch of Frost DVD for his mum, we were pissing ourselves
