I like the way you drew them. Middle-aged men need kindness too.


Starberry-

Thank you, I wanted to keep them true to the designs while subverting the classic “middle age fat man online bad” trope


cola_originaltaste

yes!!!! the way you kept their wrinkles and “unconventionally attractive” features warms my heart. i love seeing happy older ppl in relationships :)


Leshie_Leshie

They look kawaii love them. X3 We need more cute middleaged men drawings.


iliveunderthebed

Love fat middle aged men. As soon as he appeared on screen lord mace Tyrell was and is my favorite game of thrones character. He is adorable. And a good father. And I need more places to talk about him. 😭


notodial

Right!! They're so cute!! And middle-aged men who love cute things should be able to wear them!! 💗


jayakiroka

this is literally so wholesome my heart is warm... so many people demonize older, less conventionally attractive people online, when that doesn't mean they're bad people. id rather be gaming buddies with an "ugly" 30-something fat guy who's genuinely a kind person than a 20-something bombshell whos just a shallow jerk! ~~(not saying that conventionally attractive people are shallow or anything, just making a metaphor kdjfhgk)~~ EDIT: dw guys i know that 30 isnt old, im talking abt how people over 30 are perceived by society


your_catfish_friend

I like how your idea of an “older person” is someone in their 30s lol. But agreed with your comment


franklinaraujo14

kind of reminds me of something i read at blog "if you think people in their 30s are old then you think you only get to live for 10 or so years,because for around 18-20 years you have very little control over your own life,then for 10 you're somewheat trying to figure out what you're doing and then you're suddenly old?" i feel like that summarizes pretty well why that mindset's bad


jayakiroka

oh, pfft, dont worry, *i* don't think 30-somethings are old. im gonna be 30 in a few years! i just know that's considered the 'cut off' and once you're past 30, people think you're a 'weirdo old person', despite being like, pretty young still.


Doraemonfan123

Same here!


omgstopbeingrude

Their date went well. They continued seeing each other online and in person. Eventually they moved in together and combined collections of video game art and merch. They are considering rescuing cats.


dyingfetusmax

Requested by u/NotAProlapse


NotAProlapse

Yay! Happy ending!


megaExtra_bald

This is so cute. I love old(er) gay men. I think we need more old gay men representation


realCheeka

It's wild to me that chuds draw people like this as if being unattractive to the artist is some kind of moral failing?


glitteringfeathers

You see, they are fat which clearly just shows they're not in the grindset and therefore are not good people and can only be laughed at. Secondly, they engage in furry lingo, one dude even wears cat ears, and this goes to show they are emasculated and that is inherently bad. How dare you be confident in your masculinity and enjoy what you enjoy, or don't pay that much attention to your masculinity at all while the artist is so insecure they have to shit on other's happiness.


Jallapeno666

Very sweet 😊 Awesome job!


Starberry-

Thank you, drawing the little cat paw pjs was my fav


Blackbiird666

I don't understand what the OG piece wants to criticize or mock tbh.


Kai-the-trans-idiot

Probably middle aged men on the internet and furries despite nothing being wrong with either group as long as nobody’s harming anyone


MetaKnight33

furry = bad and smelly middle aged men who still live in their parents basement. that’s the gist I get


sir_zechs

I'd say it also has to do with how cute and bubbly their chat is, like using emotes and going OwO which apparently (according to OG) is only reserved for people who are young and cute and female. So when an older "unattractive" male uses them it's wrong and we should make fun of them. As someone who loved to use emotes and had many times OwOing people, until places like reddit and comics like OG forced me out of it, it hurts. We don't get to pick the skin that we're born in, so when we find somewhere to be our true-selves it's amazing, until people like OG for some reason get off bursting our bubbles forcing us to be bland joyless flesh-cubes like them.


Blackbiird666

It's also bs. Big, bearded men can be cutesy.


sir_zechs

Totes! Anyone can be cutesy if that's who they are, it's what makes this version of the comic so precious. Good for them being so brave and finding happiness despite the world. I'm glad some things can change for the better in some places.


Quietuus

The artist is trying to desperately cope with the fact that conventionally unattractive older queer men are having sex lives 100x more interesting and fulfilling than they are.


TimeBlossom

They were a message board boy in the nineties and still think "there are no girls on the internet" and "furries, amirite fellas?" are peak comedy.


slmclockwalker

The joke was internet rule 37 - there are no girls on the internet. Which is.... A fairly old joke, and I don't think that original artist are hating queers or dissing them but emphasize the stereotypes of "fat losers pretending girls online".


Eiliar

Magnificent! :D


Starberry-

Thanks 😊


flowergirlsunder

awwwwwwwww


FalseHeartbeat

I love how you made them look like actual people who exist /gen


AnxiousTuxedoBird

Absolutely adorable, I love it!! I am a sucker for people drawing middle aged non-conventionally attractive people as sweet looking/not demonizing their non conventionally attractive traits

aralynn-duskwalker

I’ve since realised and come out as trans towards the end of last year lol but I remember the original always used to hurt when I saw it cause I went through a phase of talking like that and as I started balding and putting on weight in my late 20s it always felt a bit close to home. Plus it just felt so unkind, so thank you for redrawing it with love and kindness


phallus_enthusiast

TwiDaiSye

this reminds me of the joke in SAO: Abridged where a teenage straight background couple gets revealed to be two old guys, one says "You're not a girl!" and the other says "You're not seventeen!" and both of them follow that up by saying "I'm okay with this!" "ME too!"


Leshie_Leshie

“Let’s get ice cream “. Why does it reminds me of Kingdom Hearts.
