Let’s get some diversity here. Let’s include folks who have aged like a day old bag of soup. Me at 25 and 50

I love your comment on this pic, but it's clearly misleading. You have aged well compared to a lot of people, and are still nice looking. That bag would look less like a "murse" w/o the strap (then it would be just a briefcase or a carry-on). I'm curious if you were on your way to somewhere in that first pic.
Yablan@reddit
Dude, you look great. And you have an awesome smile.
MSB218@reddit
Soup is good food.
Yeahbutwhatevs@reddit
Soup looks good from here! 😃
yerederetaliria@reddit
This what I can do:
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
If it’s the same partner in both pics, you’re doing great!
yerederetaliria@reddit
Yes, his hair got darker as he aged. I won’t ever leave him, ever!
I think we as a generation are doing well. We understand each other and our family is huge/international.
athenaseraphina@reddit
Speaking of bags, how about that European carry-all??? 😂
PaddlesOwnCanoe@reddit
I like it! It reminds me of Spencer Reid in Criminal Minds and he's a cutie!
suzanneov@reddit
It’s a murse. 😂😂😂 thinking of George on Seinfeld.
rumblepony247@reddit
It's not a purse! It's European!
whatthewhat3214@reddit
Joey on Friends with his "man's bag"
SkyWhisperr@reddit
I watched it too, did you watch all the parts ?
doobette@reddit
Just needs the Man Fur to go with it. Let's hit the bricks!
SkyWhisperr@reddit
Hahaha when I remembered I got a tear of nostalgia, who had it brown ?
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
Oh dear lord! I used to love that man purse. The foolishness of youth I guess
rqny@reddit
I love that murse! If I shared a house with you I would probably ask to borrow it.
sauvandrew@reddit
I had one exactly like it, only dark brown leather, i thought I was so stylish smdh
PaddlesOwnCanoe@reddit
This is the one I need to be on. I grew out rather than up. Oh well! :-(
Joyful_Mine795@reddit
Best smile ever!
Wrong-Tiger4644@reddit
I'd take a bowl of that 😉
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
It’s cold and unappetising, but you’re welcome to it 😉
Wrong-Tiger4644@reddit
Challenge accepted, lol!
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
Famous last words! 😂
Wrong-Tiger4644@reddit
Facts!!
goalmouthscramble@reddit
That’s a winning smile, man. Lovely.
In_Unfunky_Time@reddit
Cut the shit, dude. Still lookin' good. 2nd pic you're laughing about the manbag, right? ;-)
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
Look of love. My daughter took the pic!
Poke-a-dotted@reddit
That’s why you look so good!
PapillionGurl@reddit
I don't see soup. I see all your teeth and a head of hair, you're killing it my friend
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
Ah, strategically taken photo. Hair in the front, balding in the back!
Scotsburd@reddit
You mean, business in the front, party in the back, right?
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
If you mean a shining disco ball for the party, then yes
SkyWhisperr@reddit
There doesn't seem to be any downside to this 😂
HumanBasis5742@reddit
Looking better @50
InadmissibleHug@reddit
Dude. I went from Julia Roberts to Hyacinth Bouquet if she dressed mostly butch and had a pixie cut.
It’s not cute at all 😂
GenerationX-cat@reddit
Just have shorter hair that's all
midnightbizou@reddit
You better hush up you magnificent beast!
billymumfreydownfall@reddit
We are our own worst critics. You look happy and healthy!
purehandsome@reddit
Nah Dude, you look like a really nice and special fellow.
beatricetalker@reddit
Stop trolling us…you are fine. And I’d like the leather satchel when you’re done with it.
jsmoo68@reddit
You look good, man.
groundedcalm@reddit
Ph-lease, you look great.
WideStreet7125@reddit
You still look good.
Serious-Alien-222@reddit
I can see the 25 year age gap!!
MowgeeCrone@reddit
Day old bag of soup? Pfffft. You're obviously referring to the long life variety that never gets old.
smnytx@reddit
Aww, you’re still cute!
Excellent_Brush3615@reddit
wtf is a day old bag of soup?
ceno_byte@reddit
Bag soup is delicious!
ComfortableRow8437@reddit
Pogue_Ma_Hoon@reddit
Soup comes in bags?
No-Detective-524@reddit
I'm confused about bags of soup too but didn't want to ask. Lol
Particular-Elk-3923@reddit
Bud I love soup. Soup from the back of the fridge that the kids won't touch so it's all mine. Got two weeks of complex flavoring.
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
😄That’s my strategy as well! Hide stuff at the back of the fridge so that my hungry teens won’t get it!
TXQuiltr@reddit
Soup is always better the next day. The flavors come together like a fine wine.
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
Oh, thank you! Your comment made my day!
Meauxjezzy@reddit
Aren’t you an actor or something I feel like I’ve seen you on Seinfeld or something?
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
I have been mistaken for both Kramer and Constanza depending on the occasion. 🤔
Meauxjezzy@reddit
lol I definitely see the resemblance to Kramer
old_and_boring_guy@reddit
Dude, you look fine. I look like two different people from 25 to 50. The best example I can offer is, Sean Connery from early Bond, and Sean Connery at the beginning of The Rock.
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
So, hot at every age?
MaleficentMousse7473@reddit
You look great!
Ruenin@reddit
Who puts their soup in a bag? Wouldn't it leak? I feel like you've just created an entire discussion around why you would use that analogy.
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
😄Tell me about it! I think the upvotes are for the analogy more than anything I’ve posted!
Human_Evidence_1887@reddit
Here I thought for real we’re gonna see some years. But no, just another preternaturally young Gen Xer. SMDH …
Flybot76@reddit
The 'bag of soup' analogy is extremely vague and I'm really not sure what the hell it's supposed to mean. Soup can be very well-preserved in bags about as good as cans just like any other liquid product but I get the impression that isn't the point here. "does it mean his body just kinda flows all over the place and leaks out of his clothes or something?"
cynicalromantic11@reddit (OP)
Love the (over)analysis! Honestly I have no idea why that popped in my head. It just sounded funny, so I used it! 😄
amprok@reddit
My dude you look great. I on the other hand look like a dehydrated sea turtle
silliestboots@reddit
Staaahhhpp! You're looking great!
CoolTemperature1602@reddit
Nah that brown deserves a crown. Killing it king!
biscaya@reddit
Right o, looking good brother
-blueseptember@reddit
Your smile is great both times!
BookishBitchery@reddit
You still got it handsome!😍
CDM2017@reddit
I've never heard of aging like a day old bag of soup, but assumed it must be bad.
Then I saw the pics and assumed it must be good.
Then I read the comments and my fellow Xer you need to be using a different phrase because you are looking good.
spargel_gesicht@reddit
I don’t know. I think a bag of soup would are just fine. As long as it wasn’t a cream soup. These metaphors are getting weird. You look great! Don’t eat day old clam chowder!
LP14255@reddit
You’ve hardly aged at all! Whatever you’re doing, it’s working well!!! 😎
CloakOfElvenkind@reddit
burghdude@reddit
Nah, you're good, man. Carry on!
Regular_Victory4347@reddit

Melekai_17@reddit
Dude you look great! What a sweet smile! I love dimples, my husband has them.
WanderingWhileHigh@reddit
That smile could light up the dark! Also, beautiful eyes!
hellocutiepye@reddit
Uh, sorry, but you have aged like fine wine.
AnotherSexyBaldGuy@reddit
A day old bag of soup from the Kwik-E-Mart. Looking good bro.
Chuckitybye@reddit
Oh hush your mouth! Your smile alone is beautiful (idc if you're fishing for compliments either!)
