I just make faces with mine, do stupid things, make a little dance and generally act stupid. I talk to them a little but never anything serious. Most days, other than my wife, they're the only individual I get to share a laugh with in person.

Whatever you say or do ... say hi to them for me.

Do crazy slutty makeup sometimes, just to feel crazy and slutty.

Whoever you are ... this could be either hilarious, sexy or disturbing .... or maybe all of the above.

Become distraught about how old they look now.

I was finding more grays and wrinkles for a while but now my eyeballs don't work as good and it's all just a blurry mess, so at least I got that goin' for me

Yo pay the optometrist the extra $60 to check for glaucouma. In my case they caught it early and I got the eye plaque lasered out of me before it could become a problem.

Same here but at the same time I joke around with them, do a dance, make a face and laugh with them as we both walk towards the abyss. Getting old sucks but at least I'll have my fun while I can.

Sometimes I say "oh, damn", but that's because I started working out a few months ago and I'm really happy with the results.

I avoid eye contact and hope I didn't disrupt his day

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 days ago

Sneak a peek and tell them I said hi.

[–] Shiggles@sh.itjust.works 10 points 6 days ago

Tell him to change his ways, obviously

Smiling is always good, especially at the start of the day when you first get up. If you don't see any smiles all day, at least you'll see one in the mirror.

[–] FireWire400@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

I just stare and wait for them to do anything but they never do...

[–] Elaine@lemm.ee 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I tell them β€œLooking good, Miss Lady!”

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago

You can pass along my greetings .... and give em a wink too ;)

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Oh I can't make eye contact with them they're too pretty

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 3 points 5 days ago

Cover your face with a towel and just show your eyes to sneak a peek .... give a quick glance and wink

[–] Hellnikko@lemmy.ml 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

We have a staring contest for a long while in the morning and then we both exclaim, "FUCK YOU!"

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 days ago

Show them up next time and shout ... "I LOVE YOU!" ... bet you it will surprise them, they won't see it coming.

"You're a fuck up but you've made it this far so something is working. Good luck."

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 days ago

At least you're not alone in fucking up

[–] personpitch85@lemm.ee 3 points 6 days ago

Eight goddamn whiskey sours!? I’ll blow your brains out.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

"So, what the fuck was all that last night? Don't give me that - say sorry at least you worthless cunt"

He's a talkative nightmare tbh, can't wait to get rid of him

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago

At least he's persistent

I'm starting with the man in the mirror

I'm asking him to change his ways

And no message could've been any clearer

If you wanna make the world a better place

Take a look at yourself and then make a change
