True story….There was an “old guy” who lived in our condo building. He obviously had some sort of addiction issue, either drugs or alcohol (both?) he would wander the halls inebriated. He would also sit in the underground parking garage and play his guitar in his car (the car was filled with cigarette smoke). I came back from a bike ride one afternoon and this guy was high/drunk off his gourd and preceded to perform the best beatbox (except for maybe Doug E. Fresh) I’ve ever heard. I stood there thinking to myself: 1) this is a glitch in the matrix; or 2) this dude is way younger than he looks.
I reckon it was a glitch! Then again, addiction and various issues can ravage a persons appearance.
I think tho that we are also getting into that time period where people who are older dont necessarily act older in the way our older generation might. At least I hope so. I still intend to be outrageous and creative as I get into my dotage!
I was saying the same to the good lady the other day. Older people dressed like old people which made them look older and the smoking couldn't have helped at all!
Take me back to my first couple of jobs where everyone smoked in the office 😀
If he did that I would surely die a happy man!! 😀😀

I think he just looked older than he was, lifestyle really catches up to us in our fifties. The guy really did do a flawless beatbox though.
It’s strange how much older people looked at our age in the 1970’s and 80’s. I don’t think exercise was as widespread, everyone smoked too.
