Must be kidding me
It's happened.
I vaguely recall that long ago, when signing up for my hotmail account, I entered my year of birth on some form. This data is used to help them direct certain kinds of advertising my way. I just turned 35, and behold!
The ads I see now are for Weight Watchers. Several Botox-related products and at least one claiming to be Better than Botox!! Anti-aging cremes. Laser and other treatments promising to remove cellulite from my ass. Some horrid visuals showing tired hags morphing into smooth-skinned starlets and back. Similar animations inviting me to lose up to 30 lbs!!! while a stick-like woman on a bathroom scale inflates up well into morbid obesity and then shrinks back to waifishness once every two seconds.
I already don't watch TV or most Hollywood film and don't buy magazines. What do I have to do to get away from this ridiculous ageism and these absurd beauty standards?
All I can say is that they'll take that cellulite off my ass over my dead body.
Oh, and I'll say this too:
