For those of a certain age ...
1. Your house plants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them.
2. Having sex in a twin bed is out of the question.
3. You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
4. 6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to bed.
5. You hear your favorite song on an elevator.
6. You watch the Weather Channel.
7. Your friends marry and divorce instead of hook up and break up.
8. You go from 130 days of vacation time to 14.
9. Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up."
10. You're the one calling the police because those kids next door won't turn down the stereo.
11. Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you.
12. You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.
13. Your car insurance goes down and your payments go up.
14. You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonalds leftovers.
15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.
16. You no longer take naps from noon to 6 PM.
17. Dinner and a movie is the whole date instead of the beginning of one.
18. Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 AM would severely upset, rather than settle, your stomach.
19. You go to the drug store for ibuprofen and antacid, not condoms and pregnancy tests.
20. A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good stuff."
21. You actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time.
22. "I just can't drink the way I used to," replaces, "I'm never going to drink that much again."
23. 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real work.
24. You no longer drink at home to save money before going to a bar.
25. You read this entire list looking desperately for one sign that doesn't apply to you.

heh, I once said that to my brother just before we were setting off to go fishing.
Me: What are you doing?
Brother: Just checking the weather.
Me: What for?
Brother: I want to see if it'll be fine weather.
Me: *gasp* You didn't used to do that!
Mind you earlier on he had some form of death race down a local street so I guess weather watching cancels it out.

LOL
That also reminds that as a kid I used to think that those 'Home Alone' movies were the funniest and most hilarious thing to watch.
Then when I started growing up I started realizing that those movies were nothing but dredfully unrealistic crap, and that those thieves would probably dead already after 2 minutes of trying to get inside the house.
Needless to say, as a kid you don't realize that Macaulay Culkin was one absolutely shit actor.
Enough of those don't apply to me to make me happy that I'm not all grown up yet. Except number 2 - really, once you get used to having all that space that double+ beds afford, you really can't go back.
wooo! im none of them yet!!!! but then again, im 15! i think this deserves a bit of a celebration!!! straight vodka for me...none of that mixed crap!!!! ahh...i love being young!
