    I laugh at the most inappropriate times and then I can't stop. I did this in school with friends and I'm 32 and still do it.

    Also, I can't help but laugh if someone falls or trips. I'll ask if they are okay and I really am sincerely concerned but at soon as I know they aren't maimed or suffered a broken limb, I laugh and can't stop picturing it over and over again, which only causing more laughing.

    I have 4 kids ages 10 to 2. I do everything they do and more. I am often egging them on. Its more fun to give in to the childish impulses than it is to be a stuffy adult. :bigsmile:

    Still climb trees, still paint with my fingers, scare people, chase people around the house, jump in puddles, still build a fort in the sitting room occasionally when I'm off sick :) I'm the youngest of six though, so I will perpetually be 'the baby'...

    ETA: I don't even have kids so no excuse!

    I talk about butts and poop alot. My kids think it's hilarious. I've had to teach them when it's appropriate and when it's not. LOL

    Well, there's been a few lately while I've been running.

    I often run on a rail trail and there are branches with leaves hanging down just out of my reach. I love to reach up and smack/grab them as I go.

    I was running through a soccer field and there was this giant gaggle of geese just sort of chilling in the field. I altered my route so I could spread my arms wide open and run screaming through them and scatter them. Made me feel 5 years old. :tongue:

    I farted on my 5 years old head then ran off this week.
    A couple of weeks ago I hid behind a door pretending no one was home then jumped out and shouted "rarrrrrrr" when the wife came in from work. She nearly wet herself.

    I've been watching some Scooby Doo classics with my daughter (who is 15). The old ones are still good......much better than the "crap" cartoons they have now!

    I am a grandma and an early childhood teacher....so pretty much all the time. I do confess to making play-dough just so I can play with it. My grandkids aren't into it so much anymore. I also love to get out the picture books in my office and look at them just for me. Crayons are a favorite way to spend time with my grand-daughter.

    I still play on the swings and I would kill anyone who tried to keep me away from sparklers and/or bubbles.

    I cry on the inside every time I see a bouncy castle I'm not allowed to go on.

    Dancing in the rain, and jumping through the huge mud puddles - I'll be 40 in November and rarely walk around a good puddle.

    -Was watching Supernatural and couldn't help but replay this scene: http://youtu.be/rFrS72Ce-Uc
    -I used to have a fart machine I'd stick in my mail box and whenever my neighbors would come home I'd set it off by remote.
    -Glue quarters to the floor in front of vending machines
    -Sparklers and snaps every 4th of July
    -I still make paper airplanes
    -If a sprinkler is showering over a sidewalk.. I still run through them repeatedly before walking on to my destination.
    -I still spell out 5318008 on the calculator and pass it to a friend upside-down.
