Youth Group

YoungMe/NowMe

You’ve let someone rip out every last pubic hair. Had extractions on your bum. Taken face yoga classes. Even had needles stuck in your eyes. All in hopes of recapturing your youth.

There’s an easier way, people. And all you need is a camera.

The rules of YoungMe/NowMe, the latest online distraction, are very simple: Find a photo of when you were a kid, recreate that photo as best you can today, and submit them both.

The results are alternately sweet and hilarious (who knew seeing grown men sit in one another’s laps could be so funny?). Spend hours perusing the gallery or grab your digicam and get in touch with your inner child by taking snaps yourself.

But hurry up already. You’re not getting any younger.
