go hit on highschool girls. Impress them by buying beer. You gotta think positive here.

This, a good beard is the difference between looking 30 and looking 18

Also, zits? seriously? I guess that would make people think you're 16 instead of 14...

Pics?

Work it! Let people at work think you're the child prodigy, the genius kid who's there to solve all the problems. You'd be surprised at how well that works.

You're going to enjoy this for the rest of your life. You can probably affect it now by changing how you dress, cut/style your hair and facial hair, but I wouldn't fuss about it too much.

The trifecta of sun, cigs, and heavy amounts of booze works wonders on a lot of mid 20's women. Meth will get you there quicker though.

Or you could lift weights, add some thickness to your neck/jaw, and look more mature. Based on past pics, most of the ATOT'ers lamenting the fact that they look like they're 14 are total pencil-necks and weigh 115 soaking wet.

Grow facial hair.

Work out. Need to sweat away any remaining baby fat you may have.

Get a tan.

Wear more mature clothing.

Answer: Get hooked on meth.

Copycat!

holy hell was I late!

funny though, after looking through a lot of those image links to find the one I needed, some were a bit sensational. once guy merely had his ass beaten before the mug shot. kind of silly, really.

Meth: You'll get your ass beaten!

They don't need to make those pics sensational. Meth really does that to you, and it's really nasty stuff.

Oh, I know. my point is that in SOME of them, there's a series of 5 of this one guy. he doesn't look so bad for the frist 4, no serious decline like the other meth heads, but in the 5th pick he's all bloody, bruised, and cut. I'm thinking there's a 98% chance that that mugshot only reflects a tussle with the arresting officers, not the physical effects of meth.

Not saying it's not real, it's just that some of those pics are being applied in a misleading manner.

I'm in the same boat. I've learned to deal with it well.

Don't cut your hair too short - I have a high hairline so this was important for me.
Stance of Dominance - This is actually true. If you want to be treated like an adult then act like one. Walk with your head high and shoulders back. Don't slouch or lean when standing still. EYE CONTACT.

Never really considered the way of acting, that's a good one to consider. While I think I do generally act like an adult, it's something to think of and make sure to keep up.

awww, you're cute

get some different, thicker glasses... something plastic and fashionable.
cut your hair differently.

unfortunately you have super light hair so facial hair is out.

Excellent!
