I look pretry much just like my dad when he was around 20. Looking at younger us not similar at all. But around 18 to 20 we look pretty much identical except the hair.
Pictures of me as a kid I look a lot like my Mum, you would have clocked us as siblings if given pictures of us at the same age without context.
Then testosterone kicked in.
This is some Back to the Future shit. Are you an x-man, because this is uncanny.

I really like this!
genetics are so crazy to me because this is normal but like it’s ALSO possible for only recessed genes coming out and the child looks nothing like the parent which is also cool AF
bit sad I didn’t get my dad’s ‘grey hair at 14’ genetics. I woulda made sooo many “respect your elders!!” jokes 🥲
Does that mean the dad/husband looks like he could be their brother? Or is that not how these genetics work?
Some women essentially clone themselves or the dad.
I have a cousin, she had 5 kids, all with different dads, yet the 3 girls look exactly like the mom and the boys exactly like the dads.
And that cousin looks like her mom who looks like my grandma. But only that specific daughter of my grandma has the cloning abilities (my grandma had I think 11 kids).
Interesting. The meme is to do half and half when depicting offspring in media. I didn’t know.
Yeah, genetics is more complicated than that. Recessive genes/traits means that while half of genetic material (discounting that X an Y chromosomes are different sizes) comes from each parent, their kid’s appearance is not just having all traits be midway between their parents’ appearances. And there’s more complications than recessive genes like epiginetics, environmental factors, multi-gene traits, etc.
Wow! It’s incredible how identical you two look.
Thanks! It took a lot of effort to get the hair just right.
@[email protected] you are saying you’re OOP?
yes! It’s not true but I’m saying it
Lmao, I am doubting a female SDF exists
Excuse you.
My ex looked a lot like her mom. Which was awesome when I was younger, because my ex didn’t smoke, and it was pretty awesome to think she would be hot forever.
Well turns out that is true, but being hot is a terrible thing to base the quality of a relationship on.

I find anyone who smokes instantly ugly, zero chance I would want to be with them sexually after that point, so yes it does. Also ages you like all hell

Also, sorry to spam, but it really does age you faster then not smoking in every front, and I think this is some good starter reading for anyone who smokes, always better to know what you are ingesting IMHO

Yes? The tldr if you don’t want to read, smoking ages you much more rapidly than if you don’t smoke.

You do realise attractive/ugly is completely subjective and down to each individual’s taste yeah? Like that’s how it works.
Most people talk about outward beauty. That is were this discussion is based on. Not really an argumentargument. Does chewing gum make anyone ugly? You can argue ugly based on the inside and/or outside. Take a gorgeous person, you’d be over your head about. It turns out they smoke, and suddenly they’re ugly? I don’t get it
Yeah, could give me, whoever is considered the most attractive human alive ATM, they smoke, and yeah that is not an attractive human any longer for me.

it’s a terrible habit but it doesn’t make you ugly
No, but it ages you quickly.
deleted by creator
…yes it does. This is not up for debate. Nicotine results in the breakdown of collagen in the skin, rapidly resulting in aged appearance.

Aren’t you the one that started that stupid chain? At least I gave you something you can type into google. Top result if you did - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3509054/
Please don’t insult my knowledge or intelligence if you can’t even take 5 seconds to educate yourself.

np, cya!
Yeah but if you are looking chances are you can make anyone quit if both got something going. Not something to avoid, my take

But its true she was hot forever?
Maybe not forever, but she still is.
Crematorium: yes
Pics or it didn’t happen
Ew
Sorry to hear that man, hope things get better for you.
almost did this myself. dad sat me down and said, “Son, she’s not right for you. go find yourself a nice cripple girl. she’ll never walk all over you.”
Man, your dad gave better advice than everyone I knew.
Everyone was like "no, peoplebeproblems, if you marry her, you marry all the crazy, what does your gut say?"and I was all like “I have IBS! It’s unreliable!”

And that’s just what it’ll do
One of these days the wheelchair’s
gonna ride all over youAs a part time wheelchair user, thanks for this idea for a song
😂🤣 I hear Hell is nice this time of year.
My dad gave me the advice that your wife will likely look like her mother. My ex now, at 30 years looked exactly like her mom and I’m glad for reason 1001 to be divorced from her. No1 was: she’s a nasty, self centered twat who did nothing for us unless it benefited herself.
I expected to find different content, thanks to my sleepy brain. Glad it was this
I thought it was the same person.
Oh, Sugi didn’t make that up? Interesting…
Ah, I remember that, but since I never watched it i couldn’t recognize a scene.
Publicity stunt 1000%
Huh, seems my weird Japanese YouTube is leaking into Lemmy…
Oh no, this is another one of those “are these dresses really the same” things.
Seriously though, that’s cute.
Cuute
Whoa…that resemblance is crazy.

I was worried we started our own oldschoolcool, the “wank to my ancestors” community, for a second, but they do look nearly identical. Lot of dominant genes in her mom.
My main memory of oldschoolcool was that one time the F1 community posted a picture of Romain Grosjean from the late '00s and convinced the subreddit that it was Jean-Pierre Jabouille; a different F1 driver from the '70s. That was fun.

I love this, as a 50 year old I immediately recognize the Renault logo as post 80’s (1992 from a quick search), and ING bank was formed in 1991, before that is was Postbank.
