  And being told you look wet when you're completely dry means you should take a shower.
  Aye, shower thoughts!

  Ironically, being told you look middle-aged while being middle-aged is just rude.
  Correction: spelling. >
  
  Being told either during middle age is awful, I don't want to look twenty and I don't want to look fifty. I just wish my joints didn't hurt, I wasn't broke, I wasn't exhausted, and I wish I still had friends. >
  
  I like those ones:
  “You look in shape”
  “You look well off”
  “You look well rested”
  “You must have lots of friends” >
  
  Even reading them makes me feel a bit better! Like they're true for a brief moment! Thanks friend! >
  
  Eh I've found it hard to be taken seriously since I get mistaken for being so young. And several humiliating situations. "You look like a 12 year old" isn't a compliment to me. >
  
  Of course, but in 20 years, "you look like a 32 years old" will be. >
  
  I think 25 is the aim, right? Like everyone wants to look they're in their mid-20's.
  Edit: if that sort of thing concerns you! >
  
  Yes, being told you look like you are at your prime is a compliment. >

  My wife and daughter often get mistaken for sisters.  My wife loves it, my daughter hates it. >
  
  When I was young I always hated being told I look way younger than I really was. But now, as as adult I kind of enjoy that people think I'm about 15 years younger than I really am, and I'm just 50 but everyone thinks I'm in my 30's. and when I get carded for buying alcohol, which some sellers are required to do even when you are clearly of age, they always do a double-take). So yeah, first "shower thought" that actually applies to me. :) >
