(OC) This is my great-great grandpa. His youthful looks earned him the title of "vampire". Born in 1905, this photo is from 1953. He was ~48 here.

Did he get very old or was it just his looks?

[uehe@lemmy.world]

He died in 2007.

Great-Grandma says that's not the only thing that was extra long

Or some dickhead who happened to find the secret potion to immortality, like in the book all men are mortal

Guy literally spent decades lounging by the pool at a shitty motel lol

[merde@sh.itjust.works]

no way! Your great-grandpa took somebody else's id in the chaos of WW2 and came back literally a different man

Did you check his fridge for adrenochrome?

[carbonatedpastasauce@lemmy.world]

Wow, he could've had a lucractive career playing high schoolers on television well into his 60's.

[mutilationwave@lemmy.world]

I could do that. Just lend an ear to people who need heard and help people in small ways when I can.

Hell I already kind of do that. I spend half my nights in hotels. Some years are better than others.

That can't be right 1905 is just about 100 years ago...

[naz@sh.itjust.works]

Your great grandpa looks like my great grandpa

Wtf OP

That scissor style used to cut portraits is pretty distinctive to the USSR

... Are we related?

[subarctictundra@lemmy.ml]

I hope he used that blessing to its full potential
