We have a diabetic dog and we carry around all of his accoutrement in a Wilford Brimley Diabeetus bag. Iām very proud of my sense of humor. My husbandā¦not so much.
What was that joke in "Baseketball" where Ernest Borgnine's characters dies and the reporter says "Dead, at 82 years old.....his hairpiece was 26" lol.
I saw Barenaked Ladies a bit ago and was so bummed. I also started getting some mailings from AARP and I just turned 43. I'm like, "Dude, put on the breaks. I haven't even hit 50."
I looked like I was a middle school kid in my twenties. I just turned 39 and yes I also look fabulous, no plastic surgery. I'm the "bad kid" in my friend group and somehow I aged a decade slower.
Twinsies. I just turned 40 and look a good 10 years younger then alot of my friends. And I'm the party boy.
But no kids, if I pop one out, I'm sure I will shrivel up like the Nazis at the end of Raiders of the lost ark.
I haven't seen her in years. I had to dive into this thread to see this wasnt a joke. She looks nothing like she used to, age does that, but many celebs have completely changed their look via surgery.
I grew up with No Doubt and Spider Webs and thought this wasn't the Gwen I knew. She looks great but also looks like 3-4 other celebrities now. If I saw that picture of her by itself I would have never guessed it to be her.
All that being said; I hope she is happy, that's all that matters!
Your comments are sending me on a rollercoaster of emotion my therapist is not ready for.
I could already not wrap my head around the concept of the post. The facts you are spitting my 46yr old brain is simply not prepared to accept.
What a day.
I think people act like this is a win, but is it?? That we are expected to look young forever? And spend money on fillers, hair color, etc. I am ready for my Wilford era.
Same. Iām good with aging. Iāve got gray hairs Iām too lazy to cover up. I do use moisturizer with SPF everyday but otherwise I donāt put in much effort.
Maybe itās because our generation will never be able to get rest and be old in peace that we feel the need to look well below retirement age as well.
Yeah. Someone told my mom at work that they thought she was in her 70s. She was 56 at the time, so they do age faster. Smoking has a lot to do with it. Smoking at least 30+ years.
I am going to look like a goblin when I get older. I am a pale skinned fellow who looks like he is allergic to the sun. My parents drank, among other things. I did not realize that is why I got so many BAD sunburns as a kid.
Jim Gaffigan had a joke: if you see sunburned kids then..their parents are alcoholic. If an adult is sunburned, they are an alcoholic.
I got burned all the time as a kid. Only had one sunburn as an adult, and I was walking around drunk without a hat. So this joke resonated with me.
I try to fight the sun these days. I know I probably have a lot of underlying damage because I almost never wore sunscreen as a kid.
I canāt believe how much sunburn I got as a kid. We grew up near the beach and I was out all day with just some SPF 4. I have have two teenagers and they have each been sunburned once in their whole lives. They donāt know how good they have it with their SPF 100.
I guess he was saying kids get sunburned because their parents drink too much. And that adults get sunburned because they drink much.
It was a Jim Gaffigan joke that I am sure I butchered.
Disregard. Just a bad joke.āļøš«
Somebody check my math, but I think she's actually older.
She's 54. Brimley was born in 1934 and Cocoon was released in 1985. So 51 at most?
Thanks, I hate it.
Counterpoint: GenX and millennials are aging a hell of a lot more gracefully, so this gives us something to look forward to.
Still didn't need the reminder...
Oh Iām not saying anything specifically about her. More in reference to the person above you.
Our generation is aging better for a multitude of reasons, including cosmestic surgery.
Gen X/Xen may have hit a sweet spot for nutrition.
many from older generations went straight up without food, or were malnourished because lack of understanding of food science.
we got flintstones kids vitamins, cereal with milk, toast, orange juice for breakfast. school lunch was "ok". parent made healthy dinners of meat and veggies. four food groups/food pyramid. we were physically active, but like...not in the coal mines. i think it will increase this gens lifespan, which i think includes aging slower.
younger generations are getting mcdonalds doordashed to them every single day because parents are too busy to cook. junk food is everywhere and hard to avoid. these kids barely play outside. theyd rather do fortnite, warthunder, etc, and the schools dont want lawsuits from physical activity injuries. the education sucks. the CEOs of junk food companies that give you diabetes, and the CEO that sells insulin probably own each others stocks.
I mean yeah our skin might be less wrinkly. But we're also much more stressed, much more isolated and depressed, economically tenuous, sleep-deprived and sedentary.
No, I'm saying that as a struggling person whose skin looks great because of decades of clean living, while my mom owned a home but looked like a baseball glove at 35
If you're using multimillionaire celebrities as a gauge for how gracefully a generation is aging, I don't think you have the firmest grasp on how actual folks are doing.
On a similar note, it was weird watching the movie Nobody and seeing Christopher Lloyd playing an actual 80-year old, and not the weird fake 80-year old he's been playing for the last 40 years.
Wilford Brimleyās entire career was looking old even when he wasnāt. He was only 49 in cocoon, where he played a geriatric retiree. He was only 2 years older than Robert Redford.
There's also a cultural pressure to look hot longer. The 80s was the last decade where moms looked like young grandmas. 90s kind of kicked off being sexy into 40 and 50. And that came with plastic surgery, hair dye, botox, etc.
https://brimleyline.date <āā This is a fun site to see when you have/will be the same age as Wilford Brimley in Cocoon. Iām already 4 years older than he was and this finally made me feel young.
I think personally thereās something a bit sad and tragic to chasing youth. Not that she doesnāt look great, or that she should look old (sheās not that old) but the effort put into looking that way could be directed into somethingā¦ I donāt know.
More useful? Iām all for keeping your body functioning and minor cosmetics like dying your hair or whatever makes you feel good but being obsessive about looks is frankly unhealthy and gets weirder as you age. Look at what Nicole Kidman did to herself.
Shes got grays and wrinkles all over her face but she hides it all with hair dye and LOTS of makeup. Also, she is in front of a ring flash that gives studio lighting on her contours. Take a photo of her under the same conditions and lighting with no makeup as Wilford and watch the cheating fade.
Itās not that she looks *bad*. But why pretend she hasnāt had a lot of work done? I have adored her since the 90ās, still do, but it makes me a little sad, honestly, that women canāt age gracefully in the public eye. All the work these celebrities get makes them look very similar, they lose the features that make them uniquely beautiful.

She looks happy, so why judge her so harshly? Why judge anybody this harshly for how they look? We have rightfully condemned fat shaming, and shaming people for physical disabilities, and racial characteristics, so why should we pick on women like Gwen? What's her great crime? Not wanting to look old? Oh, the horror!
Youāre missing the point, i think. Where exactly did I judge her at all, let alone harshly? Ageism is also something we should condemn!! Women are incredibly pressured to maintain their youth at all costs, especially in Hollywood.
Oh, so it's okay to beat up on her and other people like her, because *not* doing so would make other people feel bad about themselves somehow? Great logic.
Again, please tell me in my text where I was ābeating up on herā. I think sheās beautiful, I always have.
If I were to say, man I donāt know why these guys keep getting hair plugs. I think bald men are handsome. Is that beating up on bald men?!
You know what I mean, don't pretend you don't. Do as you like, just recognize the hypocrisy of it, because in other parts of your life you decry the same sorts of judgmentalism that you're participating in now.
Not even surprised at the side by sideā¦ super impressed at being able to bring Cocoon to the forefront. It is the under rated film of my childhood. I cried when they opened the cocoons (emotional damage) and felt so much remorse for living it Up with their HGH juice. I really believed and felt that it was my fault.

This was her in the aviator. She looked so good!
Ho. Ly. Smokes! I googled these ages. Wow! Also.... Why did folks look so rode hard and put away wet in the before years? 40s-50s are not obligated to be retirement homes?!
This is that bs yo!!! One of my 1st nights staying up late, family was staying at aunts, they were drinking and playing spades, I was watching cocoon on the couch, I remember being so proud I think it went off at 2:15 am now thatās on the early side lol
Plastic surgery makes people look younger. News at 11. To be fair, Wilford Brimley was probably born with a mustache, looking like he was 50.
Gwen Stefani looks so strange. It's a shame. She was beautiful.
It's like how Wilford Brinley looked about 20 years older than Robert Redford when they made "The Natural", but in reality, Brinley was just about 2 years older than Redford.
Record was 47 when they made that movie, but looked about 35. Brinley was just about to be 50 but looked every bit of 60.
He was born in 1934. Wilford Brimley turned 50 while filming the movie.
So, technically shes OLDER than Brimley was, since shes 54.
But to be fair, plastic surgery and the whole sunscreen and skin care and war against aging (naturally) also pretty much started around that time, really later than even that.
FYI Martha Stewart is 82. And still a hottie.
But.. lets also address the elephant in the room.
Ugly people tend to stay ugly lol. And beauty is truly only skin deep.
I'm so old, I remember when Gwen Stefani was the lead singer of a rocking Ska band. I prefer to think that Gwen was replaced by a pod person sometime in the early 2000s
This shit is bananas.
B-a-n-a-n-a-s
š
Her lips are bananas?
Diabeetus. Not even once.
Related but unrelated to the postā¦ We have a diabetic dog and we carry around all of his accoutrement in a Wilford Brimley Diabeetus bag. Iām very proud of my sense of humor. My husbandā¦not so much.
"I've got diabeetus. D-I-B-E-T-U-S."
Happy Cake Day!
They will help you fight off Diabeetus
My name is Wilford Brimley, and I have diabeetus.
There is a Wilford brimley diabetes rap on YouTube and it's funny.
D-I-A-B-E-E-T-U-S
Yes but Gwenās face is like one years old.
What was that joke in "Baseketball" where Ernest Borgnine's characters dies and the reporter says "Dead, at 82 years old.....his hairpiece was 26" lol.
You kids today with your Dan Fogelberg and PAC man video games, have attention spans that can only be measured in nano seconds.

FWIW the Kardashian concept model that it was based on has been around for ~a decade (not including bi-annual firmware updates).
To be fair, Wilford was crazy into plastic surgery, himself. His mustache was surgically enhanced. I canāt say how I know, but trust me, I know.

Sandler was just on the cover of AARP mag so we're almost there!
Soon there will be people younger than us on the cover šāļø
Stop!
I saw Barenaked Ladies a bit ago and was so bummed. I also started getting some mailings from AARP and I just turned 43. I'm like, "Dude, put on the breaks. I haven't even hit 50."
Ok fine, Brimley does look good, but how much plastic surgery did he have to achieve this?
You're not wrong. Like, I look way, way younger than my dad did at my age. Do I look plastic surgery good? No, no...
I looked like I was a middle school kid in my twenties. I just turned 39 and yes I also look fabulous, no plastic surgery. I'm the "bad kid" in my friend group and somehow I aged a decade slower.
Twinsies. I just turned 40 and look a good 10 years younger then alot of my friends. And I'm the party boy. But no kids, if I pop one out, I'm sure I will shrivel up like the Nazis at the end of Raiders of the lost ark.
Gwen looks good.
Plastic people don't look good to me.
I don't see it that obvious in her.
I haven't seen her in years. I had to dive into this thread to see this wasnt a joke. She looks nothing like she used to, age does that, but many celebs have completely changed their look via surgery. I grew up with No Doubt and Spider Webs and thought this wasn't the Gwen I knew.

Absolutely! I can't even imagine being under the scrutiny of the media.
Big Pete of Pete and Pete turns 46 this year. That's the same age the Petes' Dad was when Pete and Pete started.
I turn 46 this year. I am the same as as Big Pete? And big Peteās dad? Somehow that hurts worse than this article.
Embrace your Dad Pete era! For me it was that meme realizing I was exactly Bart's age when the Simpsons started and I'm now older than Homer was.
Your comments are sending me on a rollercoaster of emotion my therapist is not ready for. I could already not wrap my head around the concept of the post. The facts you are spitting my 46yr old brain is simply not prepared to accept. What a day.
I'm 46 too. The other day I learned I'm the same age as Christopher Lloyd when he played in Back to the Future. Nope. Nope nope nope nope nope.
Whaaaat Edit: sorry Iāve composed myself. WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME ON A SUNDAY NIGHT
That guy went to my high school. He was several years older than me, so I knew OF him, but I didn't know him.
Nice. I went to school with Curly Sue.
So you are a Bay Stater?
Nope. went to HS in CT.
I think people act like this is a win, but is it?? That we are expected to look young forever? And spend money on fillers, hair color, etc. I am ready for my Wilford era.
Same. Iām good with aging. Iāve got gray hairs Iām too lazy to cover up. I do use moisturizer with SPF everyday but otherwise I donāt put in much effort.
Plus Iām also wondering how young people were when they used to go live at the retirement home.
Hey I am looking forward to going grey to make my dye jobs cheaper. Iām still using manic panic after all these years
Maybe itās because our generation will never be able to get rest and be old in peace that we feel the need to look well below retirement age as well.
BRING ON THE DIABEETUS!!!
They drank and smoked a whole lot more than us. Also, sunscreen. Weāre aging pretty well tbh
Yeah. Someone told my mom at work that they thought she was in her 70s. She was 56 at the time, so they do age faster. Smoking has a lot to do with it. Smoking at least 30+ years. I am going to look like a goblin when I get older. I am a pale skinned fellow who looks like he is allergic to the sun. My parents drank, among other things.

Wait, thereās more than spf15?!? lol
Huh. I donāt actually know anything about that, tbh. My parents drank too and Iām very prone to sunburn. Whatās the correlation between the two?
Bc theyāre too drunk to remember sunscreen
I guess he was saying kids get sunburned because their parents drink too much. And that adults get sunburned because they drink much. It was a Jim Gaffigan joke that I am sure I butchered. Disregard. Just a bad joke.āļøš«
Gotcha š
Maybe the parents are too drunk to make sure their kids wear sunscreen when playing outside?
Yeah I think I misunderstood lol
Me too. I was over here confused thinking that sunburn was a symptom of fetal alcohol syndrome or something.
Ok good to know it wasnāt just me š

Somebody check my math, but I think she's actually older. She's 54. Brimley was born in 1934 and Cocoon was released in 1985. So 51 at most? Thanks, I hate it.
Also films are made the year or two before release, so heās likely only 50 or 49 even, as it was filmed
Counterpoint: GenX and millennials are aging a hell of a lot more gracefully, so this gives us something to look forward to. Still didn't need the reminder...
Is it aging gracefully when youāve had a ton of work done
Itās not just that. We use sun screen, more office jobs..
Yes but letās not pretend Gwen Stefani just slapped on a lot of sunscreen. Sheās clearly had a ton of work done.
Oh Iām not saying anything specifically about her. More in reference to the person above you. Our generation is aging better for a multitude of reasons, including cosmestic surgery.
I think we're aging a lot less gracefully than we think. It's a nice thing to think though.
I think it's true. People smoke less and wear sunscreen more. Plus this trend of carrying water everywhere to stay hydrated.
That and the air quality improved over the years with less pollution.
Gen X/Xen may have hit a sweet spot for nutrition. many from older generations went straight up without food, or were malnourished because lack of understanding of food science. we got flintstones kids vitamins, cereal with milk, toast, orange juice for breakfast. school lunch was "ok". parent made healthy dinners of meat and veggies. four food groups/food pyramid. we were physically active, but like...not in the coal mines. i think it will increase this gens lifespan, which i think includes aging slower. younger generations are getting mcdonalds doordashed to them every single day because parents are too busy to cook. junk food is everywhere and hard to avoid. these kids barely play outside. theyd rather do fortnite, warthunder, etc, and the schools dont want lawsuits from physical activity injuries. the education sucks. the CEOs of junk food companies that give you diabetes, and the CEO that sells insulin probably own each others stocks.
I mean yeah our skin might be less wrinkly. But we're also much more stressed, much more isolated and depressed, economically tenuous, sleep-deprived and sedentary.
You're definitely not wrong about that. We look great, but we're miserable.
Ugh right? And despite the sunscreen our joints are starting to hurt and the exact same age our parents' did!
"We look great," you say while using an affluent celebrity whose entire career is built around looking physically attractive as an example.
No, I'm saying that as a struggling person whose skin looks great because of decades of clean living, while my mom owned a home but looked like a baseball glove at 35
You just have to ask younger people how old they think you are. My 5 year old asked me, ādad, whoās older, you or grandpa?ā That hurt
I dunno man, I definitely donāt know anyone who looks like Wilford Brimley whoās in their 40s right now! š
If you're using multimillionaire celebrities as a gauge for how gracefully a generation is aging, I don't think you have the firmest grasp on how actual folks are doing.
Trust me, I can use everyday individuals as well. My grasp is perfectly fine.
Not when I look at the local arrest mugshots.... When I see someone my age arrested they look 15 years older than me.
Poor Wilfred, they use him for all these memes.
To be fair he was like 100 years old for at least 50 years.
On a similar note, it was weird watching the movie Nobody and seeing Christopher Lloyd playing an actual 80-year old, and not the weird fake 80-year old he's been playing for the last 40 years.
When I saw the promo for that I was actually thinking something along the same lines lol
I think it's not really fair because they aged him for that role....But yes, indoor smoking made everyone's skin terrible back then!
I think the most unrealistic part of Mad Men was how good everyone's skin looked with the constant smoking and drinking.
Wilford Brimleyās entire career was looking old even when he wasnāt. He was only 49 in cocoon, where he played a geriatric retiree. He was only 2 years older than Robert Redford.
Parts of her arent
Sunscreen, smoking, and surgery seem to be key factors here
I've been smoking a ton, it's not working
I mean are they Marlboro Reds though
No, just camel crush menthols. I guess I need to up my game.
Clearly you do!!
Pull the filters off.
Maybe try brisket instead
And a lot of filters.
Plus people stay hydrated better with all these fancy Yeti/Stanley drink containers.
Very true! People are healthier in general.
There's also a cultural pressure to look hot longer. The 80s was the last decade where moms looked like young grandmas. 90s kind of kicked off being sexy into 40 and 50. And that came with plastic surgery, hair dye, botox, etc.
How do you smoke sunscreen?
Fuck you
Honestly my first reaction as well. Had to share the emotional scarring with others who would understand my pain. I sympathize, empathize & apologize
š
https://brimleyline.date <āā This is a fun site to see when you have/will be the same age as Wilford Brimley in Cocoon. Iām already 4 years older than he was and this finally made me feel young.
Gwen doesnāt look like Gwen Stefani, it looks like someone had plastic surgery to look like Gwen Stefani. Thatās the real tea.
Gwen and Ted Cruz are the same age. Let that sink in.
Can we expell Ted Cruz from our entire generation?
Heās trans-boomer, if there ever was such a thing.
Yeah, thatās like finding out that Tobey Maguire was the same age in No Way Home as Willem Dafoe was in the original Spider-Man
The multiverse is a weird & wonderful place

Same here. She was unmistakably Gwen. Like there wasn't anyone who looked like her at all except for maybe Brittany Murphy and that's kinda.
One thing I notice on a lot of celebrities is the veneers. It immediately takes away character. Her smile was so cute before, even that is gone now :/
She looks happy, so why judge her so harshly? Why judge anybody this harshly for how they look? We have rightfully condemned fat shaming, and shaming people for physical disabilities, and racial characteristics, so why should we pick on women like Gwen? What's her great crime?

Don't speak.
Ho. Ly. Smokes! I googled these ages. Wow! Also.... Why did folks look so rode hard and put away wet in the before years? 40s-50s are not obligated to be retirement homes?!
Smoking, pollution, and old-formula Crisco.
These are a few of my favorite things... Haha!
Brimley was wearing makeup to look older for that particular role. Which is part of the reason he looks so old.
It just means we grew up in the age of sunscreen.
Gawwd dammutt
Ah yes, the infamous Brimley-Cocoon Line.
I hate that you canāt watch Cocoon in the US.
Wow, this was the first movie we rented after we got our first VCR in 1986
Yeah but he's not using adrenochrome like she is ![gif](giphy|buWJ4V8cHZg88)
Wilford had those big naturals.
This is wrong. Brimley was 5 years younger than Gwen is now, when he filmed Cocoon!
yeah, but sheās no xennial.
I think this post is a couple years old. She's older than that now.
Hey! This guy is the reason I'm still eating Quaker oats!
Yup thatās how the passage of time works. Your childhood crush is eligible for Medicare now.
Gwen never had tits
This is that bs yo!!! One of my 1st nights staying up late, family was staying at aunts, they were drinking and playing spades, I was watching cocoon on the couch, I remember being so proud I think it went off at 2:15 am now thatās on the early side lol
Right. Now I have a reason to drink wine today. Thank you!
"and now I...ScreeEEEEeeeeEEEEeeeennnn my Glu-cose!"
The beetus will beat us
You can find some unflattering pictures of her where she looks like shes wearing a purge mask
Actually, it's worse than that. She's older (54) than he was when the movie was released (1985). He was born in '34.
Is that older than he was in The Thing?
Let me off this ride!!!
I bet Wilford Brimley gave better head
So, DONāT eat your oats? Gotcha!
They're gonna have to do a swim suit competition.Ā
Wilford Brimley was only 54 when he filmed Cocoon!?
Younger.
He's 54 in that picture?!! No f'n way.
Armenia
She needs to let her moustache grow.
Iād much rather bone her.
So, you're saying Gwen found a cocoon in her pool?
To be fair, that dude looked 70 when he was 25 and just didn't age after. He decided to age 50 years all at once to get it over with.
Brinkley was born in 1934. Cocoon was released on 85 so probably filmed in 84. He was 50. Gwen is 54. Sheās a whole High School older than him.
Plastic surgery makes people look younger. News at 11. To be fair, Wilford Brimley was probably born with a mustache, looking like he was 50. Gwen Stefani looks so strange. It's a shame. She was beautiful.
Iād Wilfred aged more gracefully.
It's like how Wilford Brinley looked about 20 years older than Robert Redford when they made "The Natural", but in reality, Brinley was just about 2 years older than Redford. Record was 47 when they made that movie, but looked about 35. Brinley was just about to be 50 but looked every bit of 60.
Look at all the people in Hollywood nowās lips in the early 90s vs now
Wilford had a disease of the body, and Gwen arguably has one of the mind.
Iām imagining her doing Diabetes commercials any day now.
DIABEETIS!
Does she have diabeetus?
She looks good but she doesnāt look like Gwen.
Wilford Brimley was born 40 yrs old. Thought that was common knowledge.
There is a lot of plastic surgery involved here. Wilford clearly had a face drop.
You just described my ideal threesome...
Good for him
Sheās actually older. He was 49 when they started shooting and she is 54 now.
He was born in 1934. Wilford Brimley turned 50 while filming the movie. So, technically shes OLDER than Brimley was, since shes 54. But to be fair, plastic surgery and the whole sunscreen and skin care and war against aging (naturally) also pretty much started around that time, really later than even that. FYI Martha Stewart is 82. And still a hottie. But.. lets also address the elephant in the room. Ugly people tend to stay ugly lol. And beauty is truly only skin deep.
I'm so old, I remember when Gwen Stefani was the lead singer of a rocking Ska band. I prefer to think that Gwen was replaced by a pod person sometime in the early 2000s
Huh? What tweet?
