The fine line between dressing like an old man and a sharp GQ/Esquire guy.

Look, the problem with eating shrimp is that it makes you look friggin old to most size 14s and below.

Why? The tiny, tiny forks and all the cocktail sauce that inevitably gets on the shoulders of your jacket, in your goatee, and on your shoes.

What hottie wants to kiss a guy with dentures and horseradish breath? The answer? Only a few.

That, in a shell, is the problem.

You have been in the wrong places...

A bit of red lobster and you can bed all Louisiana and Mississipi

Right, the impression is that the gay guy to the left is in good shape while the potentially straight middle-aged family father guy to the right could have done well not stopping going to the gym after 40.

Was this your point?

The problem is not the time it takes. The problem is the attitude.

I'm not wasting good shrimp on a crappy shrimp cocktail.

I've got several good recipes for shrimp. Have you ever had a fried shrimp po-boy sandwhich, shrimp etoufee, shrimp gumbo. If your ever in Houston let me know, I'll cook.

Red Lobster SUCKS!!! They should have their ass removed for what they serve and call food.

I've read that clams are bi-curious because of their valving.

Is this true?

The internet is full of movies about bi-curious clams, so it must be.

Look up Penny Flame and Kinzie Kenner for a bi curious clam movie.

The man is Steve Reeves, and the point was to show that a good frame to hang clothes on goes a long way to achieving a good look.

Actually it is not. An etoufee is served with rice. Rice was not part of the paleo eating style. The biggest probelm with eating strict paleo is the cost. Real food cost more than the crap we generally eat everyday. I do not maintain a strict paleo lifestyle.

You really are not missing much if you never visit houston. I'm not native to this area, and will gladly leave when the time is right.

SF tends to attract a leaner, better looking individual (I think some must be models). They'll always criticize those of us with bad genes, chins, tummies etc. It's often not our fault. We're simply trying to improve on a faulty product. A product you can't send back for a repair or replacement.

Anyway, I have no thoughts on the OP's look. I simply wish him all the best in his transformation.
