unapalomablanca Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Anyone on here find it all a bit too much? this idea where adults love things like harry potter,lord of the rings,star trek, star wars and play kiddie games like x box and playstation. Another thing i saw recently is some phone advert where all these stupid overgrown kids are sending a birthday picture around to each other and drawing ***** little hats on it and rubbish like that. God it grates me, please will people grow up!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glb8686 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Well theres somone who regrets growing up too fast/at all. I like a dabble on the playstation, increases reaction times apparently. Plus out of all those films the only one remotely 'childish' is the potter films, but they do go quite dark for 'child films'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Geordie Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Sorry mate but there are tines I can't help myself from doing skittish things. It makes me feel good inside for some reason. Surely people deserve to feel good now and then! After all, aren't practical jokes childish? If it makes people feel good about themselves then thats fine. Some of THOSE might look at you and say "miserable **** grate on Me!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst understanding your initial point, I do think you've opened an ants nest with this thread! Just to add fuel to the fire, what about all the grown ups that watch the childrens TV series Dr. Who!

Oli Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 The best thing about having my little daughter is the chance to regress a little, work is so serious and pressured i relish the time that i can spend dancing to baby jake and having her chase me around the room etc. etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welsh1 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 No hobby is weird, its weird when adults act like children, star trek conventions for chrissakes And all those people at game fairs in realtree are different because? I know what you mean mate,but they do no harm and are just fascinated with different things than some of us,now where did i put that gille suit to play at snipers at the next airsoft meeting. Disclaimer.....i have never been to an airsoft meeting and played at snipers,and if you do i don't hold it against you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glb8686 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 its exactly what i am on about, i stopped doctor who at 14. Why? You say soccor will always be there for man and child but that is only because it is socially acceptable for a man to kick a ball about. If you could earn 80k a week from playing 'tag' everyone would be doing it. Afterall, sports are just advancements on games played as a child!
