    Try smoking a pipe, failing that try a crack pipe - that will age you.

    Become Prime Minister and tell porkies as a way of life. It worked wonders for Blair.

    That ages you 10 years immediately from what I have heard, and is the reason why I have stayed young looking.

I've been told I look like a work experience kid, I look 14 years old, I look like that kid from Home Alone... I've found working in the internet industry ok because people expect you to be young. But still, I feel sometimes no one takes me seriously because I look too young...

    Suggestions please on how to look older!
    Have a kid... current rate of aging is about 5 years for you every 12 months for them.

    And the second one is imminent....

    Beaker should milk it while he can...especially wher the ladies are concerned. Guys - wouldnt we all like to pull girls 10 years younger than we are - surely looking younger has got to help?

    When we are young we want to look older, and when we are older we want to look younger, so there must be a point at which we are happy with the age/appearance combo - but when is (or rather was) that?

    I'm guessing it's around the 25-30 mark.

    She looks her age. He doesn't. But they don't look 20 years apart

He never even guessed.
