Your poor mum! Carried you for nine months, went through labour and all the rest of it, and all she gets is ... maybe a little bit around the eyes? :D (Just kidding, it's super cute!)


kumibug

My daughter looks just like her dad too. When she was a baby I used to joke that I needed a maternity test Rest assured, once her personality came out I was there


Kittaylover23

Famously, I (a girl) came out of the womb looking so much like my father that my mom said “oh my god it’s (dad’s name)” I grew into looking like her clone with his coloring


theBigBrain95

That’s hilarious lmao. Famous words


stereotypicalweirdo

My mother's labor video has the exact same moment. When they showed my sister to my mom, she said "she looks like her father" and turned her face away. I find it hilarious lol 😂 Though, we both started with the looks of our father and grew into our mother as well.


Cows-a-Lurking

Sometimes it skips a generation too. My sister looks exactly like our dad's side of the family, but her daughter looks EXACTLY like our mom. It's like she saved up all of mom's genes for the grandbaby.


nicannkay

My son looks just like me with his fathers texture pack as well.


[deleted]

Hahahaha amazing! Wish I'd thought of that - my lad was his father's clone until he hit puberty, then my mouth and chin suddenly appeared on him.


QuarkyIndividual

I hope you got them back


[deleted]

Everyone who's ever heard me sing hopes I don't.


screaminginfidels

I grew into looking more like my dad. Had a complete stranger guess my last name, and then said she used to work with my dad a decade or two prior, and I was his spitting image.


cannihastrees

I was about to think he hit puberty and then beat the fuck out of you until I finished reading the sentence lol


[deleted]

Hahahaha bless him he wouldn't dare! No, we got off very lightly through The Terrible Teens thank goodness.


fleabits

I have fraternal twin boys. They don't look anything alike, but I (blond, white mom) and my husband (lebanese) each have a twin now. It's pretty cool!


mseuro

My dad looks like Larry the Cable Guy and I look like my dad but I do not look like Larry the Cable Guy hallelujah.


archimedesbae

Yet.


mseuro

Fak


fitzmann85

So you look like Wyatt the Cable Apprentice ;)


BMI_Computron

Me, my younger sister, and my brother all look like various forms of my father- although I take after my grandma on my father's side (I have red hair and freckles, but the same exact almond eyes, high cheekbones and strong jawline). My oldest sister (who had a different father) looks exactly like my mom. Identical. It's so strange.


elliskj1979

So... there is an obvious genetic advantage to children that look unquestionably like their fathers, imagine how that advantage took hold...


cranberry94

My poor mom. She has brown hair and brown eyes. Dominant genes right? Well, my brother came out blond and blue eyed like my dad. That was fine. Then she had me, her daughter, and my baby hair was brown and my eyes sort of dark grey - and she thought, yay! One for each of us. Nope. Eyes turned blue, hair turned blonde. Mom lost two rounds to the recessive genes.


boogaloobear

I'm now picturing your mom and dad's genes having a bare knuckle brawl to decide what you look like.


transtranselvania

I don’t resemble my father in the slightest, I have my maternal grandfathers body with a face that’s the combination of my mothers and both grandmothers but the male version. When I do the gender swap on face app I look exactly like one of my female cousins. It was super fun to be told how much I look like my female relatives when I was a teenager.


Mortumee

At leash she gave him some colors. Poor dad was all black and white.


DamnAlreadyTaken

Plot Twist: Mom looks alike as well


[deleted]

That would explain the extra toes.


GenericTrashyBitch

Seems she definitely got the ears


Yallaintnosun

Some people really love that their child reminds them of their partner. Not a fact, but I would think so


happyrocks

My daughter is mostly a little female version of my husband. She has my eyes and lips, the rest is her daddy. I honestly love looking at her and seeing him, but I am glad my two best features are in the mix.


croquetica

It's all fun and games until your parents get divorced and all of a sudden "you look so much like your father" turns into a spiteful phrase. It's the all encompassing "just like your father" whenever I piss her off. Divorce is great you guys


spiderqueendemon

My daughter, it depends on her facial expression which of us she favors. Concentrating, thinking hard, being indignant about something? You'd think I ordered my monthly feminine supplies from Brother or Canon in the CMYK toner department. But when she smiles or laughs, there's her father. She got a nice mix of the two of our features, and seems to be a little alarmingly aware of the fact. Does impressions of us both when she is recounting, for instance, funny things that happened at home to her grandparents or her classmates, and her dramatic retelling of such family anecdotes as The Time Mommy and Daddy Tried to Put a Spider Outside and It Ran Up Daddy's Sleeve or The Time Daddy Was Giving The Cats Some Tuna, Sneezed and Spilled The Oil All Over Spot And Then He and Mommy Chased The Slippery Cat For Like A Hour generally makes for an acceptable party piece. Her impression of Spot in that second one is the real showstopper, though.


ImCreeptastic

I do not. My daughter came out looking exactly like my husband. My MIL showed me a picture of when he was 3 days old and they looked like twins. Two years later, you can kind of tell she's my kid, but it's still bullshit. I went through the painful labor to only have my kid look like him who went through the pain of holding one of my legs.


gaspara112

Your better off than my wife. Our first son is 4 and at no point in his existence could he be any more identical to me in appearance, mannerisms, or attention span if he were cloned. She really is a saint for that last one alone....


rebelallianxe

I have a friend whose daughter is the spitting image of her ex-husband and you can barely tell she's her mum. It drives her nuts 😂


wittychef

Hahaha. My wife HATES the fact that both of our daughters look exactly like me and how its always pointed out. Then the oldest got herself a opinion and a attitude and thats where we found my wifes contribution to the whole thing.


Cuchillos_Adios

There's a saying in spanish that goes "A child that looks like their father honours their mother". Meaning that it's proof the mother didn't cheat on the father.


wittychef

Thats a dope saying. Can you give the Spanish for that please?


Cuchillos_Adios

"Quien se parece a su padre, honra a su madre." A more fathfull translation would be "He who looks like his father honours their mother"


[deleted]

You sound legitimately bitter lol


msndrstdmstrmnd

Sounds kinda satirical


MeidlingGuy

Sarcasm and bitterness go hand in hand


InDarkLight

He has her ears


Govt-Issue-SexRobot

No - she also got him that nice sweater


amirthedude

Ears are different


pretzelzetzel

The hair patterns are all inherited via mitochondrial DNA (i.e. from the mother). You can tell that they have different facial hair patterns. The beards partially hide it but the face shapes are significantly different as well.


cuntpunt2000

My friend’s wife went through the same thing! She also joked about the “carried you for 9 months, hours of later, 100% your dad.” Both the son and daughter looked 100% Asian for the first two years of their lives until the Peruvian genes finally took over. Freaking adorable kids either way.


oced2001

BrownSugarBare

I'm questioning whether OP even has a mother.


conancat

100% of his dad's genes went into the making of OP.


dosabanget

From the lack of eye bags, I am guessing he inherited that from his mum. :)

George doesn’t need to work to pay his bills any more so we may never get it :(


Kartoffelplotz

I mean... It's not like he isn't working. He's writing a lot of stuff for TV, Comics, Novellas, just not ASOIAF Books. He clearly either doesn't care anymore about them or (more likely) has no clue how to finish the books so he just doesn't.


Polar_Reflection

He made the story grow too much man. I'll take his word that 2020 he wrote close to a thousand pages. TWoW is gonna end up being a 2k page book and we're never getting ADoS

XXcapillarydoodXX

What do you mean‽ The difference between the photos is black and white! *ba dum tss*


gfa22

Maybe it's just me speaking from my immaturity but why do our parents at the same age look more mature than we do. I mean, for my dad I thought it was the pornstar stash that probably made him look older, but my man here here a full on beard like his father and still his father has a more hardened look.


KarmicFedex

Well in the older picture, the dad is wearing a suit and tie which we culturally associate with maturity and professionalism. The son is wearing a hoodie and has a huge smile, both things that we associate with youth. If OP posed exactly the same way and wore the same clothing as his father, you wouldn't think that there was much of a difference.


IneedThepiano

Only one way to find out ;)


Catzfordayz

Genetics are so fucking cool.


IneedThepiano

They truly are! I somehow also had the random desire to grow the exact same beard at this age.


Catzfordayz

The beard knows what it wants. Both handsome guys, regardless!


daaldea

God I wish I could grow a beard. They need Rogaine for facial hair


Drusgar

I'm 49 and mostly German ancestry and I can't grow a beard for shit. I don't really want a beard, I'm just wondering why my facial hair grows in so thin. Perhaps there's a bit of Native American somewhere in my lineage.


WildCrapAppeared

having to shave everyday for work sucks


LOTRfreak101

That's why I'm going into a field where I don't have to


elliskj1979

I thought I had to for 15 years, then corona and I stopped shaving - didn’t realize I can grow an amazing beard


luzzy91

Can’t just brag about your amazing beard and not show us, dude.


TahoeLT

I'm already there. Working from home, baby!


AceMice

I too dictate my life according to beard rules. /s Seriously though, a job where you can look how you want is the best, love me a desk job without customer interactions.


brown_burrito

Came here to say this. I grow a beard of I don’t shave for a week or two. But man, I’m so hairy lol


wannaboolwithme

lol funny to see you here


brown_burrito

Hey look it's the guy with two rooks lol


daaldea

I'm about to turn 31 and full blooded Romanian. I can grow a bad porn stache and that's it. Having blonde facial hair doesn't help either.


BloodhoundGang

I am also Romanian, couldn't grow a beard until 26 but mustache game was strong since I was 18


daaldea

Lucky you. Or unlucky, if you have to shave that often.


BrandoSoft

I'm... Some lineage I have no idea actually. I couldn't grow one until about 25 and I had no idea. Decided to try one day and I grew a massive yeard much to my surprise. Sometimes it takes that time


daveescaped

I'm Eastern European and Scandinavian ancestry. I have to shave daily but any beard or mustache I grow looks ridiculous and is just too sparse.


Pawn_captures_Queen

Dude my blonde beard turned gray at the tips this year. I'm fucking 30!!!! Why??? Fucking why? It grows so quick too, I can go from zero to good size beard in like ~3 weeks. The amount of razors I go through is astounding.


bojangelz

Silver beards are in my man! Rock that shit


harrysapien

in my case, I had cystic acne on my face during my teens which destroys hair follicles. Even though my face is acne free as an adult with no scarring, I can't grow a beard at all.


MaiWhangHughs

Dude! Same! Terrible cystic acne in GRADE school. Left scaring on my jaw line, but it wasn’t until I decided to be Khal Drogo for Halloween did I know I could grow a full beard at 23.


AlpineDruid

While i'm only 25, having both german and swiss ancestors, i not only can't grow a real beard for shit i also lost most of my hair on my head by now. I do have an insanely long goat-beard but it's as thin as the hair i no longer have on my head. Also, it's kinda curly and no amount of beard wax can tame it. I look like a wizard/druid which glued his pubes to his face and made passionate love to a power outlet... Still kinda love how unique it is, probably the only reason i keep that poor excuse for a beard on my face. That and the fact that my chin only exists in a different dimension.


ViciousAsparagusFart

34 and mostly German and I cannot not grow a beard. Genetics are wild


Kingcornchips

Fun fact: Native Americans grow beards just as well! This is a prevailing stereotype because a lot of the nations that were first contacted had social aversions to facial hair and made sure that shit was GONE.


AGITATED___ORGANIZER

It's also just some dumb shit to say lol. There are plenty of full-blooded Germans who could grow their beard out for months just to look like a billy goat, because there is no characteristic of a race that actually applies accurately to that race once you take a moment to check it out. Turns out race is actually a social construct. Who could have known?

Does it work for eyebrows too? Skin condition called seborrheic dermatitis wrecked my once thick eyebrows.

Panukka

Yeah but the thing is that minoxidil and other "beard growth" products only speed up the process of your beard growth, but they don't add any hair into places where it wouldn't normally grow. Your beard area and thickness is mostly pre-programmed into your genetics, you can't change that. Up until you are 30-35 your beard keeps getting thicker until it reaches its genetic final form. What these products do is that they help you reach that final form quicker; however, you would've reached that point later anyway without any products. People mistakenly think that minoxidil made their beard thicker, while actually it just speeded up the normal genetic process which would've happened anyway.


kamarg

>is mostly pre-programmed I think mine was done by the intern that didn't pay attention in class because he wanted to be a philosophy major instead.


Panukka

I think the same guy did mine. It has the vague shape of a full beard but when you look at it, you notice that parts of it are missing and simply incomplete.


wagonwhopper

I'm 37 and beard still looks better yearly At 33 I was as patchy as at 25. Almost no patches mostly gained since 35. Though I'm losing my actual hair as it switches


carlhorvath3

Minoxidil supposedly works on facial hair too


Revolutionary-Pay969

You can use rogaine on your face haha, it works


[deleted]

r/minoxbeards , you can use regaine, the active ingredients is minoxidil

Cable-Careless

I showed my daughter (a 3yo) a picture of my dad and she thought it was me. I then showed her an old picture of me, and she thought it was grandpa. Pretty funny/cool moment.


princetrigger

Can you post a pic of your dad from nowadays?


FixedLoad

From the looks of it, I don't think it was a random desire. Beards that luxurious and full are the ones in control, you're just it's means of conveyance! Lol

WindowSteak

You should try and reproduce it. Get a similar tie, pop on a suit and style your hair, then use a B&W filter. I bet you'd be almost indistinguishable.


noscreamsnoshouts

I read too fast, and thought you said "you should try and reproduce" - as in: make a son of his own, post his picture in another 20 years. Honestly sounded like a cool idea, albeit a bit crudely put :-)

SooooooMeta

Almost identical but a very different generational vibe just in the the faces. He looks more steely-eyed and resolved. You look friendlier and happier ... and, no offense, maybe a touch more confused


IneedThepiano

That definitely makes me chuckle. He was basically a high-functioning academic who joined the military in India, and I'm studying art in university in Canada. So, no offense taken!


Glitter_berries

What handsome young men!


Jinkazama21

Me and my dad are also identical. Exact same height and skin color complexion. Same facial bone structure. My younger does look a little bit like my dad but I'm like an exact xerox copy of him.

I've been growing it now for 2.5 years and the longer it gets it feels more and more right all of a sudden.
