What Does Adam Sandler Think About Aging?
Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Los Angeles, Jan 12 (NationPress) Hollywood star Adam Sandler has opened up about the realities of aging. At 59, he humorously outlined several reasons that indicate he’s feeling rather “f** old”.
While accepting the Career Achievement Award at the AARP Movies for Grownups Awards, he reflected on the aging process, as reported by People magazine.
He shared, “Firstly, just the other day, I had to take a Viagra just to relieve myself, and naturally had to consult my doctor because the effects lasted over four hours. When I sit down, it sounds like a semi-truck running over a family of lobsters cracking their knuckles and munching on Pop Rocks. Number three, my taste buds are down to one; everything I eat tastes like oatmeal, except for oatmeal, which tastes like Vaseline.”
According to People, other relatable observations that had the crowd laughing included his use of such a large font that his messages “can be read by anyone looking out a window on a Delta flight,” and the necessity of employing “Dude Wipes” more often than he would prefer.
“Number six, when I dive to the bottom of a pool, most of my back skin floats to the surface. Number seven, during high school reunions, I spend most of the evening saying, ‘I’m so sorry to hear that’,” he continued.
He also mentioned that none of his toenails match in color anymore, resembling “a box of Crayola crayons” when he removes his socks.
“Number nine, just the other day, I called the Depend diaper headquarters to suggest they consider venturing into the sweatpants market. I even drafted another option just in case that one didn’t land,” he added.
In conclusion, Sandler remarked that upon receiving the Academy Awards screeners, he finds himself managing to stay awake for a mere eight minutes, despite pressing play on 44 different films.
