"Picking up an ice cube after dropping it, rather than kicking it under the fridge.
I still kick them but sometimes I see adultier adults pick them up "
I'd never have thought if kicking it under the fridge...until now  |

"Getting a Miele washing machine and being excited about it.
Getting a mortgage
Responsibilities - ugh! I’m still 18 in my head "
Fancy being as reckless as when you were 18?! |

Have you seen some of the muppets walking round with crotch goblins- wouldn't leave them in charge of a house plant  "
I did say you need to be grown up to do it successfully  |

Do we ever truly grow up in all aspects of our life ?
You reach a certain age whether it be 17 or 27 where adult life hits you with the mundane routine of work, bills, etc to sustain a roof over your head and food in your belly.
I think in some ways you need that younger thinking to live life, enjoy it, laugh, try new experiences, without the shackles of consequences even though you may know them. Or the fear of what might be or happen in the future, as one day and we don’t know when, there won’t be another tomorrow.
I can be serious when needed but I’m not letting my inner child go, when I do then it’s time to move on
To answer the OP quickly, when a year has past but only seems like a couple of months - time is a flying. |

 that was funny
I think it's when you can't wait to do all the stuff that used to be punishments - early bed, not going to parties, eating all your dinner. |

That’s hilarious I hate picking up ice cubes, especially when my hands are clean and can’t be bothered with washing them again. Kick…. |

My small person asking me whether I'm old.
As OP said, buying a full set of tyres. This is a big one for me
Hearing one of the full-timers at uni describe something as "really old, like, from the nineties".
A teenager telling me I remind her of her mum.
Buying a proper, grown up set of anti-ageing skincare products.
Hearing music from my teen years played on Absolute Classic Rock. |

Crotch goblins: like it!
Vaginal discharge is reserved for the more savoury types. |

"You grow old because you stop doing the things you love...grow old but never ever grow up...love what you do ...do what you love ."
Not going to do much to prevent Alzheimers, arthritis, macular degeneration, osteoporosis and the like, is it? |

"When you drop things on the floor, you pick them up with your feet rather than bending your legs and using your hands."
I've always done this, but that's because some fucker thought it would be funny to put fingers where my toes should have been. |

I've always done this, too - but are you sure you aren't suffering from mixama-toe-sis? |

When your main focus on buying new clothes+shoes is whether they're comfortable & made to last..(rather than the main reason being because they look good ) |

"Buying 4 tyres for the car . Wow .
When I quit everything and went back to uni and retrained for the job I wanted to do since I was 12"
Love this! Is it as good as you hoped? |

Radio one to Radio two.
Watching the News, rather than wait for it to end or get to the weather but.
Know what DD stands for.
Being up before 9am at the weekend.
Finding a long walk relaxing.
Enjoy looking around the Supermarket for exotic food.
But the one my Mother always told me….
Shopping in Marks & Spencer’s for their clothes. |
