Andy French, age 24

Was there ever a time when you found it weird that you realized you were older than a character you saw when you were a kid?
>>
Homer Simpson is 36. Turning 37 and realizing that has been fucking with my head.
>>
no i never thought that was weird because i am not a special needs person and can understand the passage of time

>In the first episodes of The Simpsons, as well as in the Treehouse of Horror comic books, Homer Simpson was 34 years old, but in season 4, he was suddenly 36. Homer aged again in season 8, where he was 38 and 39 years old, and the most recent reveal about his age was in season 18, with Homer now being 40. However, the ages of the rest of the Simpsons family haven’t changed, which along with some specific events at certain points in time make Homer’s age even more confusing. For example, he was shown falling in love with Marge as a senior at Springfield High School in 1976, and Marge became pregnant with Bart in 1980, but they were later shown as a 20-something couple with no kids in the early 1990s.

>The inconsistencies in Homer’s age don’t stop there, and unlike other characters from The Simpsons, Homer’s birthdate has been shown on screen, although briefly. In season 4, there was a quick look at his driver’s license, which has his birthdate listed as May 12, 1956, meaning that by the time the series began, Homer was 33, but during season 4 (which ran from 1992 to 1993), he was 37 years old. Showrunners Bill Oakley and Josh Weinstein shared that, during their time in the series (season 7 and 8), they found out that as they aged, Homer seemed to do so too, so they changed his age to 38, which is the number many viewers take as the definitive one – and it makes more sense with the ages of the rest of the family, as Marge is 36-years-old, Bart is 10, Lisa is 8, and Maggie is 1.

When you watch sitcoms from the 80s and 90s and the parents are in their late 20s/early 30s.

I'm not gonna lie; learning Fry lost his virginity before I did wasn't the greatest feeling...
>>
>>150392782
Turned 31
It's funny that I look back on all these characters I'm now older than and can't help but still feel like I'm younger.
>>
>>150392913

It helps when the cartoon is set in a specific time period or year, and you can age up the characters in your head. I wonder what a 49 year old Andy French would be up to or a 42 Year old Kevin French.

>49 year old Andy French would be up to
Moderately successful cartoonist. Wants his own show but can't have it.
>42 Year old Kevin French
Transitioned.

It's crazy that Fry lost his V in 1947 but I had to wait until nearly the end of 2001.

Andy would be working wherever Jim is working in some sort of role suited to his middling abilities, ideally as a member of Jim's team so that his incompetence can be handwaved away. Kevin gets some sort of upper management job in accounting or IT with a big nationwide company. He does fine for himself and settles into a comfortable suburban life like his parents had. Realistically, he'd wind up married to the first girl he ever has sex with
