How does she continue looking so radiant? 

she looks much older than she is

her make-up needs a drastic overhaul

she is not radiant, see make-up overhaul needed

probably needs a bit more meat on her bones to be radiant

she's very elegant though

We only do it to wind you up, Clergs.  Kate Middleton looks fine to me.  I'm just not interested in her life (or looks).  I imagine it's a difficult position to be in, having to look and act a certain way all the time and constantly being in the public eye.  Not something I'd enjoy, so good sass to her that she can take it.

if you are not interested in her looks why comment on her looks at all

a variation of "if you have nothing nice to say just don't say anything"

it's not really about her, I'm sure she would hold the remark with the contempt it deserves, it's about women and their place in the world

She's not late 30s, she's 37. And she has a nanny, a stylist, a secretary, a shopper and a hairdresser. I think she can look better, but let's face it, she looks pretty good

no it doesn't! 48 is late 40s.

unless you are a handsome man.

man, I don't relish being over the age I am now, you know. 33 was about optimal. This mindset is sexist I need to rejig it.

I think it is increasingly hard because of the cult of youth

If you're not a 30 under 30 what are you etc. And every time I try to understand coding or SEO or digital design I feel like oh God whatever happened to things of genuine and tangible value! the economy no longer feels solid (I know it hasn't actually been for years but it's discernable now)

also, as we were discussnig a few days ago, so many middle-aged people are just sagging into their lot, accepting it for what it is. All the hope for change atrophies and you are just left wrinkley and cantankerous and wondering if you should be worried about the blood in your poo.

She looks old.

But clergs looks old too.

This is why men of distinction and accomplishment go for women in their early-mid twenties.

Yes I pulled earlier and am meeting her for an imaginary dinner at an imaginary restaurant and I shall imagination not shag her tonight because she is imaginarily a decent longer term prospect.

I happen to believe that clergs is absolutely beautiful.

I also believe that Cherie Lunghi is beautiful.

Doesnt stop Cherie being old.  Nor Clergles.

The fact that when I fell out of the ugly tree I hit every single damn branch on the way down does not contradict my view on age.

 

Sorry, just to confirm that this isn’t a weird American cult thing.  I have actually met clergs. More than once. And in my opinion (rather than ‘I believe’). She is a beautiful lady.

It is ridiculous to describe either Clergs or Kate Middleton as "old". You were being deliberately provocative. It would probably be more cutting if it didn't come from someone who, in their own words, hit every branch of the ugly tree on his way down.

wink

I think I have reverse rofism but the older and fatter and balder I get the harder I find it to discuss “wood nots” without inwardly collapsing into a singularity of cringe. 

I have no problem listing “woods” though. Nothing to be ashamed of there. 

see, I find there is a reverse correlation between men who readily say "wood not" and men who are actually hot themselves

so, things are looking good for you on that front, zg

like, a hotty isn't going to spend their time denigrating randoms, they will be focused on all the fun wooding

Actually breaking my own rules a bit I think it’s fine as a fat bald middle aged (when does that start exactly or is that another thread?) lawyer to “wood not” someone famous if you wood not them because they’re an awful human being or a Tory or something. 

So I would not Liz Truss or Esther McVey. 

She looks radiant

Also, having just googled that pic, I note that in a move almost designed to enrage you clergs, she has had a bryony plant tattoo, and has legally given herself "Bryony" as a middle name

Wang you sycophant stop bowing and scraping. Holbein's Henry VIII? Finally we understand why Teccers thinks he has broad shoulders, because of people like you flattering him.
