Every so often I still indulge in the "don't step on the cracks" game while walking along the street :-)
I literally did this just yesterday walking to the car from work. Then I had to figure out what actually constitutes as a "crack" and what is just a "purposeful indent' in the sidewalk. I decided that the indents that separate the squares in the sidewalk do not actually count as cracks and its ok to step on those.
Yes, but you're liable to break your dad's spine that way.
I love avatar the last airbender too. I haven’t found a show like it since. Besides that, I still like anime (though less nowadays because of some sexist parts)
Pretending to use The Force to open automatic doors.
Switching song lyrics for immature lines.
Riding on the shopping cart like a scooter
Yes! I get many looks. Here's a late-thirties man with a bald head, gleefully grinning like a maniac while careening wildly down the parking lot aisle on a squeaky four-wheeled vehicle meant for vittles.
Late 20s here, same!
sound effects with my mouth....engine noises, explosions, etc
😅 Coloring books. Dino nuggies. Chocolate milk. Cartoons. Plushies. Fairy tales.
Also, ATLA is amazing no matter what age you are 🤩
Chocolate milk.
ATLA is awesome. Worth enjoying at any age.
I've got a decent collection of stuff animals. They're nice.
Got into Lego again a few years ago. It definitely has changed a lot since I was a kid in the previous millennium.
Sleeping with a teddy bear
Nothing wrong with sleeping with stuff animals.
I should probably get one seeing how I often end up just hugging the blanket when I sleep.
I vaguely recall an article linked on the SITE THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED that something like 40% of adults sleep with a stuffed animal or comfort object
I am a 38-year-old adult and I love Tamagotchis. Also Pokemon, anime, comic books, stickers, sitting on the floor, and using the shower wand as a microphone.
I'm quite childish. Still play video games, still watch cartoons more than live-action shows, still eat (now sugar-free) candy. What's going to happen? Are the grown-up police going to break into my house and demand that I turn in my adulting license and my pubes?
Skipping rocks. If I'm near a body of water and there's a flat stone anywhere near me in 100% skipping that thing. This never gets old
You're all just being human. You're not childish, just being human.
I like avatar as well. I watch it and Digimon occasionally.. and I love YA books as well.
Cartoons/ animation. I'll never grow out of it.
Words like fart, poop, boobies, etc.
- Magic School Bus. To this day there are a dozen episodes that cross my mind all the time.
- What my father calls "crap pasta" — animal or cartoon shaped noodles in a sauce that's 40% salt.
I thought there would be more, but nothing else is coming to mind.
I've been thinking about getting some stuff from my childhood again. I recently watched We're Back on YouTube and while the movie is not great, it has a great charm, which has been making me think of getting the VHS tapes I used to have as a kid.
Aside from that movie, I'm also thinking of getting The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars, Anastasia, The Jungle Book, and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
Jumping in puddles. I almost never get the chance anymore, but if I have boots on and there's a puddle YOU BEST BE PREPARED
Dino shaped chicken nuggets
Love this topic! I'm with you on the YA novels, sometimes I just like an easier read, and does loving Harry Potter count?
Doing engine sound with my mouth
My son bought me a flamingo squishmallow and it’s the best!! Also, Pokémon Go
Chicken fingers 😣
There's a lot of things. One easy one is I enjoy coloring in. And I really like teddy bears.
My daughter has a stuffed fox that I genuinely like to cuddle with when she lets me.
Stuffed animals in general are dope.
There's a distinction between child-ish and child-like. So far I haven't seen anyone say they enjoy anything child-ish (except maybe alternative song lyrics?), but all the lovely child-like responses warm my heart. I eat "sugar cereal" for dessert. Because I'm an adult and I can. Also, I make up silly songs all the time and talk to myself and my cats in silly voices.
Lemmygrad is a marxist-focused instance and Hexbear is currently making the migration to mainline Lemmy right now.
Hurtling towards 30 so a youngun in your books.
But i like to whistle random melodies in public, communicate in weird noises with my partner at home, read YA fantasy (mistborn, assassins apprentice)..
I actually just started watching Avatar for the first time and I'm 35. Also been playing a game called Rumble. It's just like being an earth bender. Super fun, and I'm also really enjoying the show. I think I'll moved on to the legend of Korra after I finish.
Disneyland.
I enjoy shirking my responsibilities and doing nothing, if I can help it.
Taking things apart and then ruining them. Had my girlfriends oldtimer out for a year because of that. Fixed it but she never looked at me the same way again. Hahaha
