It's So Not Fair.
Thursday, April 13, 2006Men age slower than women. That's what they say.
And after much research work, I have come to the horribly unfair conclusion that it's true. So bloody unfair. Already we have to undergo period cramps, and bear children, and then we don't even get to age slowly and gracefully? *pout pout pout*
I present to you, the exhibits. Girls, please do not drool over your keyboards. I will not be responsible for any ruined computer parts.
Exhibit A: Teenage Lookers
Benjamin McKenzie and Jesse Metcalfe.
What do they both have in common? They're both 28, going on 30 soon, and they both pass off as teenagers in The O.C. and Desperate Housewives respectively. As teenagers. Geez.
And then we have Tom Welling, better known as Superman Jr. He's 29 and yes, he's also easily passing off as a teenager in Smallville and Cheaper by the Dozen. Isn't it unfair?
Exhibit B: The Thirties Club
You will not believe these guys have hit the big 3-0 and counting. There's no way. They defy all aging laws of nature.
Gorgeous Ryan Phillippe, 32, actually looks younger than his wife. Also 32, another Ryan, this time Seacrest.
Nick Lachey, now 33, looks exactly like how he did years ago when he was busy giving the camera smouldering looks while he sang some 98 Degrees song. And Jiennnnnnnn!, also 33, looking like he just turned 25 or something.
35-year-old Julian Cheung Chi Lam, best known for his adorable dimples and for that role in 'Return of the Cuckoo' as a mute guy, and 'Shades of Truth' just recently shown on Astro. Kevin Richardson, also 35, can no longer be emotionally classified as a Backstreet Boy, but still looks like one, nonetheless.
Do you believe this? *fans self* I didn't, at first. Kevin Cheng, the guy from 'Burning Flame 2', is 37. Three-seven. Yup. *faints*
Psst: Monash people, our Microecons lecturer is also 37. If only he looked like this, I'll never skip another Econs lecture again.
Exhibit C: The Mid-Lifers
Matt Dillon, one of this year's Oscar nominees, turns 42 soon.
Meet Brad Pitt. Guess how old he is? 43. Like, what?
Tom Cruise, man with the million dollar smile will be 44 this year. How does he still look so good? Talk about (pun totally intended) mission impossible.
And my personal favorite: Jon Bon Jovi, still looking so damn hot with the guitar at 44. Yes, 44. At 44, we'll all look like aunties. Wait, we WILL be aunties. But Bon Jovi? Uncle? Nope, don't think so.
Exhibit D: What Does He Eat?
Richard Gere will be a whopping 57 years of age. 57, that's older than Malaysia. Lol. No wonder I always remember Ms. Sham melting everytime she mentioned his name.
Sighhh. So all you guys reading this, open your eyes; you have got it easy!
And girls, we should go shopping for some wrinkle prevention cream. Lol.

Double Take
There's this keh-leh-feh actor [Translation: Bit-part actor who doesn't get any meaty roles, but instead gets cast as the beggar, one of the ketua gangster's followers, the next-door neighbour's son's friend etc. Yeah, you get the idea.] from TVB who's been around since, like, forever whom I've ALWAYS thought looked like Steven Gerrard.
This is Steven Gerrard, better known to Sharmin as Stevie G, captain of Liverpool and influential England midfielder.
And...
His cina twin...
Pang something-something.
They look alike, don't they? It's so weird!

Xerox-ed
Ming says Park Ji Sung has this 'soh chai' look. And lol, after much observation, I think he does too. He looks like he kena photostat in all the pictures above, from one to another =D

Thing(s) you should do- Pick up a phone and wish Ching a happy birthday!
Favourite quote since the last I blogged:
Ms. Kathy: So, for example, to improve unity in groups, do you think Monash should implement a uniform amongst all stude...
*All the lights in the Lecture Theatre go off*
Ms. Kathy: Uhmmmm. I'll take that as a no.
LOL!
