Have you ever noticed that the older you get, if you wear a t-shirt and jeans you automatically seam that much more credible? I have noticed this and point it out to highlight an odd fact. The older you get the more credible you are the younger you seem, and vice versa. Every single rock and roll critic, A&R guru, struggling manager or mooching pedophile I have ever met over the age of 32 has done everything within their power to look 25.

I find this interesting because it shows cultures fascination with the power of appearance and its mental stimulation. It shows cultures opinion on the power of clothes and what it can cause; and perhaps cultures inability to understand the limitations of these things. Everyone I have met like this to me in fact comes off less credible, because they clearly have a miss understanding of who they are. To me, these people are the most overly self-conscious people. Every morning when they wake up they make an honest assessment of who they are and they are completely inaccurate. Their knowledge of their own selves is so far off that it actively blocks them from understanding themselves.

Humans so eagerly try and block the natural evolution of their own lives with who they are, what they think and their active conscious on their own lives. Many spend so much of their lives trying to be something there not that they become nothing at all, and you typically can immediately tell these things if your looking correctly. What I find fascinating about this is that everyone else around them can see it, yet they cant. So often in life i think if we all just stop and take a step back we will figure out we are completely insane.
