  • No, I'm 16 with the brain of an 8-year old. Get it right.

  • You can change. You can.
    I couldn't hear you over your monkey grunts.
  • Maybe if you cleaned the bullshit out of your ears.
  • One foot in front of the other, every day.
    21, 5'11" and a bit.
  • I assumed it would be about Central Avenue and Anonus.
    Weirdly, that didn't occur to me. Probably because he doesn't really come around here anymore.

    Also I'm 21, and the fact that most of you are both younger and more mature than me never ceases to make me feel like some kind of manchild

    ^ I am so much less mature in real life than I am on the Internet, if that makes you feel better.
  • It helps to remember that there's a life outside the Internet.

    Dammit, that's me, too.

    ^^If it makes you feel better, it applies to me, too, so it's not just because you two are identical internet twins.
  • You can change. You can.
    but it certainly helps and exarcebates it.

    @Everest: oh you bastard

    I swear to god I'm about three seconds from going full-Cupcakes on all of you bitches

    mostly Juan and Everest though

    Well, most of you have jobs and don't live in your parents' basements, right?

    ^^^Oh, yeah, definitely. Just like everything else.

    ^I don't have a job and am about to move back in with my parents >.>

    I sort of have a job I guess. Even though I don't have any work until April.

    And I live in my bedroom in my parents' house.

    ^^^ I'm sort of out of a job till the pool's air handling system is fixed near the beginning of January.

    And I'm living with my parents, what with still being in high school.

    I'd live in the basement if there was one. :p

    but I'm pretty much in the same situation, really. I mean, I'm sort of employed, but it's complicated and it doesn't make sense and blah blah don't wanna talk about it.
  • For some reason living in my parents' basement makes me feel more like a loser than I would if I had a proper bedroom, even though the only reason I'm down here is that our house doesn't actually have enough bedrooms for all of us and we're too poor to get a bigger house

    If you're still in post-secondary, living with your parents can be understandable. If you're putting effort into finding a job, then it can also be understandable. If you simply cannot find your life ambition, it might be a good idea to visit the career counsellor. Your life situation tends to influence how "immature" these factors are.
  • No rainbow star
    Last I checked I was 5'10" or 5'11", I forget

    However, my dad says that I'm 5'9", and considering I was last measured at highschool, they could have gotten it wrong

    So I have no idea what the fuck my height is :D

    Loser
    On the topic of maturity online vs. offline, I think it can be easier to be less serious offline if you know other people pretty well, but if you are not one to have a bunch of close friends in real life, I feel like it can actually be easier to be more "random" and goofy online because you do not feel like you need to be as guarded.

    I guess we are kind of past this point, but I do think it can be easy to mistake one user for another when they both use the same or similar avatars. I suppose that is part of the reason why I would prefer most people to have more unique avatars rather than everyone having ones from Homestuck, My Little Pony, Sketchbook, Scorebook, or whatever.
  • I am so much less mature in real life than I am on the Internet +1

    On jobs and basements, meh, cultural differences.

    It does seem primarily a white thing. My parents have little problem with me sticking around a little longer and they get confused when I tell them about this connotation.
  • I think people are sometimes overly judgmental about these things. Apart from a small minority, most people don't really want to live with their parents as adults and if they do it's because they can't afford to do otherwise or because they have physical or other problems that would make independent living difficult, not because they're pathetic and parasitic manchildren. 


    The problem is that the small minority are over-represented on the internet, and they make great targets for those wanting reassurance that there's someone worse than them out there (i.e. all of us,at some point).  

  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    ^Let's not forget those of us who are actually taking care of parents with incredibly bad health... hint hint...
  • Let's not forget those of us who are actually taking care of parents with incredibly bad health...
    Oh god, that's going to be me in a few years. :(
  • ^^^I don't know about most people. Maybe as the world becomes more Westernized, but it was a tradition in, say, Asian cultures to take care of your own parents as an adult.
  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!
    I'm only 5'3'' T_T...

    Diet NEET

    Also, 22, 180 centimeters.


    Crude generalization: Because nerds have relatively stable teenage years, but don't go through the emotional turmoil that comes with an active social life, first relationships and clashing with your parents as a consequence of this. So you do your social maturing later on, feeling less mature because of this and the inevitable angst that goes along.


    Same for practical skills: nerds are often more pampered for a variety of reasons.

  • Has friends besides tanks now
    Very true, in my case.
