I recall a moment at work when my coworker asked about our manager's age, and my response went something like this: "Well, I'd say somewhere in the range of 30 to 60... You really can't judge some folks by their looks alone. Appearances can be incredibly deceiving!"

It's fascinating how appearances can play tricks on us, and that's precisely what the folks over at the subreddit r/13or30 are all about. They're sharing pictures of individuals whose age appears to be nothing more than just a number.

Whether it's a teenager with a beard that rivals a lumberjack's or a thirty-year-old who could pass for a high school student, they've got it all. Join us in exploring the amusing and sometimes bizarre instances of age-defying appearances.

"My 15 year old son during trick or treat. What is he dressed as, you ask? He is a Sheild Agent, he wasn't collecting candy, he was handing out cards to all the kids dressed as Marvel characters asking them if they were interested in the Avengers initiative."

    I was a bigger fella and I had similar hair in my teens. I was perusing the cheeses in the cooler at the grocery store and a woman came up behind me, tapped me on the shoulder, and said, "M'am?" When I turned around, she visibly jumped, and exclaimed, "I'm so sorry!"

    I think a lot of this one is because the haircuts are what most of us are used to seeing on older people. Because they were popular in the 90s, which was when this photo was taken, which means that these girls were just in style in their time! It's like how everybody thinks Ethel is the name of an old lady. All those Ethels were children once!

    I think it really confuses people when young-ish women let their hair be gray instead of dyeing it. I think this woman is probably in her 40's, but the gray hair (OLD!) plus tattoos (YOUNG!) is to much cognitive dissonance for people.
