i mean, they're not wrong.
If you have wrinkles at 40 you need to wear more sunscreen and drink more water.

There are wrinkles in my soul.
My balls are wrinkly, and they've barely seen any sun at all.
But you do admit you remember exposing them to direct sunlight more than once?
is "direct sunlight" a code word for families at Shoneys?
They wanna drive a wooden stake through my heart for pulling my cock out at the Toronto blue Jays game; but all I'm saying is I bought the tickets!
When did you start dating Lauren Boebert?
Edit: grammar
Im a demon. I have no loyalty for anyone! Never did, never will. Shorty chose to be with a demon, sounds like her problem to me haha
I'm enjoying the chaos of this comment chain.
Then you'll love ~~the source of my plagiarism~~ my muse
I would never have gotten that reference. It's delightfully absurd and obscene, though.
Nudist beach is a pretty good explanation.
Please don't bring reason and understanding into this, I'm trying to be irrationally judgmental over here.
But also even if you don't have wrinkles you should wear sunscreen and probably drink more water anyway.
*Proceeds to drink even more water and die from brain swelling.*
It's more about how I feel inside.
I’ve got mad forehead and cheek wrinkles and I’m 30 haha
I'm sorry, where did I say that people at 40 don't have wrinkles?
Or simply never tempt the smiting of the Sky Sphere
Hey! I resemble that remark!
What planet do you live on where you see 40 year olds without any wrinkles at all? Absolutely ridiculous comment. Why do people upvote trash replies like this?
I'm in my forties and have no wrinkles. I have a few friends who have wrinkles but most of them don't. Maybe you should drink more water and wear more sunscreen.
Yeah, I am 43 and while I have some very fine lines on my forehead, and near my eyes, you can't really see them unless you are like within 2 feet of me, or closer. And I have a long history with smoking and drug use. Also I am white, very white, not quite ginger ghost white, but not too far off. Genetics play a very strong role in this, and, at least from my perspective as someone who smoked for 28 years, and did hard drugs for 17, staying out of the sun. I have only really been doing anything close to a routine skin care regimen in like the last 5 years. I have also been homeless. So... yeah, not only do I believe you, I know people just like you. Hell, I probably would have much smoother skin, with no lines, if it wasn't for how bad I treated myself.
Not even any fine lines? Hard to believe.
I live in a tropical country where most people take care of their skin. My eyes are fine.
I feel like I'm in the twilight zone with this thread. Are people going to start saying that the sky isn't blue? Extremely weird replies here
All of my replies are being downvoted now, lol. I swear man....Lemmy is fucking stupid. The people here are absolute clowns and make the Reddit population look intelligent. It's really bad.
I think the problem is that one side is making a statement as an absolute, and the other one is making a statement which they quantify as "most".
One single occurrence disqualifies the person claiming the absolute.
"Most" would mean more than half, which may be a big ask but we don't know their entire experience, culture, environment, and all the other factors involved.
For the record, as a very fair skinned 53yo woman with blue eyes and blonde hair, I've spent my entire adult life hiding from the sun and wearing sun screen year round (I live in the Chicago area.) I regularly get mistaken for my early-mid 30s, and if I look really close I can see some fine crows feet when I smile. I dare say 10 years ago they'd have been hard to find lol.
Wearing water and drinking sunscreen works pretty well too !
