do we really ever grow up?

There are better examples than this in life but here's mine for the day...

3 PM...time for afternoon snack. Check macros. I need some carbs.

Brain: (like a pouty child) "But I don't wanna eat carbs. I want peanut butter".

hand: grabs PB jar...

    The the midst of a roadtrip last night, the entire car had an in depth but hysterical conversation over farts. Farts will always be funny.

    Growing up is boring and dull. I'd much rather giggle over the word 'fart' than to be old and bitter

    growing old is inevitable....
    growing up is optional...




    lol that said.. I still think of myself as the same 'kid' i was way back when... even though my opinions and attitude (and therefore, behavior) have changed over the years...

    No we don't! As it says in my profile - We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public. !

    I farted in a parking lot the other day and my friend told me it sounded like a barking spider. I thought I might pee my pants!

    No, I don't think we do. I think our mind ages to a certain point and then stops.

    For instance, I went on a walk through my old neighborhood the other day. I could close my eyes and it felt like only yesterday that I was a teenager. There were so many changes, but it was, and always will be, my home. That area holds probably the best memories I have. I absolutely needed that mental break. I just wish the people I had in my life then were still in my life today.

    OK... I am sitting here in a Gryffindor t-shirt, camouflage pants and a Tinkerbell necklace, watching Cartoon Network, and planning out garb for my next Ren faire.

    I'm a grown-up, all right. :bigsmile:

    I'm a single 28 yrs old guy who has the tradition that every year around Christmas time, I put on my pj's, grab some icecream and some chocolate milk and watch Home Alone movies

    What? You mean not all grown ups do that? >.<

    On behalf of all grown ups on the MFP, I would like to say this assertion of "lack of growing upedness" is deeply offensive and derogatory. In fact, it might even be racist! I'm shocked and horrified and I just farted. :laugh:
