Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

"One time, this guy handed me a picture of him, he said, 'Here's a picture of me when I was younger.' Every picture is of you when you were younger." - Mitch Hedberg perforrming at Strategic Grill Locations, 1999

Anyway, this post is definitely mildly interesting. Thank you.

Here's a picture of me when I'm older.

You son-of-a-bitch! How'd you pull that off? Lemme see that camera... What's it look like?

Noses and ears, they never stop growing.

They've obviously all changed but the lady third from bottom is almost unrecognisable.

The second from bottom on the left kinda looks like one of the Kray twins

It's got that "Dark" vibe. I can even hear the music.

Really incredible to see these snap shots of people’s lives. To think whole families, great days, and tragedies all sprung up around these people in the time span. Life is a mysterious journey.

Somewhat depressing, what 60-70-ish years does to us, and it's ridiculously little time in grand scheme of things.

I had the opposite reaction! I loved seeing the story of their lives - happy, sad, concerning - written on their faces. And some of these folks definitely aged into a better face than they started with.

Depressing? The alternative is worse.

Old age is a gift that some never enjoy.
