PHOTO Are RWers born with frowns on their faces, or do they just grow over time?

1. That's not a matter of political party--that's just age. n/t

[Jackeens]

4. You're very generous.

:-)

[janx]

7. No, it's true.

I'm almost 52, and while I don't look like that, I can sort of see it coming. She just looks old and burned out. Her attitude doesn't look very happy, if that's what you mean.

[Jackeens]

16. I agree, Janx

(And I'm catching up with you age-wise).

Yeah, I meant attitude really, I didn't mean people's looks or the ageing process - I'm lucky enough to be surrounded by elderly family members who are so full of spirit and joy they couldn't wear such a mean and miserable expression if they tried. I suppose it's a state of mind. I just struggle to come to terms with elderly folk who object to healthcare for all, it baffles this mind.

:toast:

[we can do it]

5. Nice..................

[janx]

8. Well...it's true. n/t

[appleannie1]

18. That frown and beady eye look is not age. Heck I am a lot older than her and I don't look like that

[NYC_SKP]

41. I think that woman is 27 or 28...

:rofl:

[onehandle]

2. She hates Socialism but will bitch like Hell when her Social Security check is late...

...or Medicare denies her a facelift.

How's those paved roads working out for you, sourpuss?

[Whisp]

11. so you think if she goes for painful surgery to

improve her looks (aging is not all that bad, feller, considering the alternative) that will improve her mind?

are you saying women should 'be nice' and 'smile'...

that smartarse comment of yours makes me think I may like that 'sourpuss' better than I like you

[Rosa Luxemburg]

3. does she live near the swamp?

[Jackeens]

6. She sure does - this is her husband:

:hide:

[Clio the Leo]

9. Here's one of my favorites....

[Jackeens]

13. Jeez, Palin's globe-trotting has taken its toll

She needs some rest.

:shrug:

[TheCowsCameHome]

20. Part of the Imus clan?

Sure looks it.

[provis99]

10. why does it seem to me that

every right winger has a droopy mouth and big hog jowls? Is there a genetic link between being politically stupid and having big ole jowls?

[janx]

12. A lot of these people are OLD...

It's natural that they should have lines on their faces.

[Jackeens]

14. But not every old person looks mean and miserable

Look, here's a happy one:

[janx]

21. That woman is not as old as the one in the previous picture. n/t

[Jackeens]

23. She looks older to me n/t

[JuniperLea]

17. You can be hella old... have oodles of lines...

And still look happy!

My great granny lived to be 99.75 and she never looked cranky like that woman. My sister, on the other hand, is in her mid-thirties and looks cranky as all hell when her face is at rest.

[appleannie1]

19. Wrinkles. The character of the person. Up and they led a loving life. Down and they love misery

[janx]

22. Nope. It's genetic. n/t

[Jackeens]

24. And lifestyle.

I should know. :blush:

[janx]

31. Up or down in wrinkles is lifestyle?

No. Stress or abuse--and genetic propensity--makes more wrinkles, and the genetic factor does also. But the up or down thing is genetic.

My mother had deep vertical creases between her eyes and above,not because she was pissed off, but because she frowned when she analyzed things, and she sometimes frowned in her sleep. In addition, she was very expressive, so the horizontal lines on her forehead developed early. She was very fair.

[Jackeens]

34. Wrinkles are perfectly natural, I just believe that if you lead an unhealthy lifestyle and...

...you don't look after your skin properly then you're likely to have a few more. Again, I speak from bitter experience - my sister, who is my double, is almost 10 years older than me but looks, at worst, the same age - she's led, needless to say, a healthier life.

But, as I clarify elsewhere in the thread, I wasn't forwarding some wacky theory that right wing women age quicker or have more wrinkles!! I was just suggesting - in fun, as usual - that if you're mean and miserable your face might well end up reflecting your personality. It wasn't an age-related comment at all.

[PADemD]

46. Bingo

"if you're mean and miserable your face might well end up reflecting your personality."

There is an interesting book, "Amazing Face Reading, An Illustrated Encyclopedia for Reading Faces," by Mac Fulfer, J.D. It details what every line and wrinkle on a face means.

After studying the book, you can identify personality just by reading faces.

[JuniperLea]

47. The wrinkles themselves are genetic...

The mood they depict is purely that of the wearer. You can't spend your life smiling and end up with frown lines... it just doesn't work that way.

[frylock]

15. another medicare leech

[TheCowsCameHome]

25. 28 years old, and look what being a right winger can do to a person.

Cheer up, honey. You'll get a date someday.

[NYC_SKP]

26. No, not born that way but I agree that people filled with hate show this on their faces...

And those who hate Obama are filled with hate.

:hi:

[Jackeens]

27. Exactly the point I was trying - but failed - to make!

Thank you NYC_SKP!

:toast:

[NYC_SKP]

32. My surrogate mother, Mrs. Happy Fordham, used to say to her daughters...

Something like this:

"God's responsible for the expression on your face until you're through your teens.

After that, you're responsible for it."

Of course we can all smile, we can all frown, but to be sure there are some of us who have "happy lines" and "sad lines", or wrinkles, as we age and these are largely a result of how much time our faces spend in which of these positions.

:P :P :P

:toast:

:P :P :P

37. Chinese Saying On Aging & Face

For your first 40 years, you live with the face you're born with and the next 40,
the face you've earned.

[Jackeens]

38. NYC_SKP and Binka....

"God's responsible for the expression on your face until you're through your teens. After that, you're responsible for it."

"For your first 40 years, you live with the face you're born with and the next 40, the face you've earned."

Majestic!

:toast:

[NYC_SKP]

39. Thazzit!

:P

True, too!

[Cha]

28. Those who hate Obama need

OBAMACARE the most:fistbump:

[C_U_L8R]

29. Glass half empty-ers

I have never heard a single positive or productive thing from these republican shitheads.

[rebel with a cause]

30. I was born with a natural frown line

and spent most of my life smiling like a fool trying to hide it. :rofl:

[Jackeens]

36. LOL - here's your avatar, rebel with a cause

:-)

[rebel with a cause]

42. Wow. You got me to a tee.

I just wish my teeth still looked that good. ;)

[hileeopnyn8d]

33. Yes

born with frowns and flag t-shirts. :P

[santamargarita]

35. The right-wing women aren't smiling because their men lost testosterone...

when President Obama was elected.

[burning rain]

40. That's not a human, but a reptoid.

You can tell from the ill-fitting mask, particularly around the bottom of the face and neck.

[budkin]

43. Would YOU be happy if you didn't have a soul?

[Vinca]

44. I think they must be born with a mean and nasty gene.

[zulchzulu]

45. When you're worrying about your next doctor's bill, you'd be unhappy too

I'm sure the poor woman doesn't want the government to run Medicare either...

:crazy:
