For me, I’m nearly 40 and I really love Avatar the last Airbender, reading YA novels, and sometimes I make pasta with fun shapes, just because I can.

What do you enjoy?

    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

      Been thinking about getting the McCain smile fries at the store for a while now. Do you ever get weird looks from the cashier, or do they not care?

    Love this topic! I’m with you on the YA novels, sometimes I just like an easier read, and does loving Harry Potter count?

    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.

      I was really bummed out when I developed lactose intolerance, but I was shocked by how good the Silk Dark Chocolate soy one was.

      Also found some brands sell it lactose free here, but unfortunately they’re harder to come across in stores.

    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?

    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.

      It’s a habit at this point. Mentally I know it won’t break my mama’s back, but emotionally… emotionally, I -have- to step over it 😅

    Got into Lego again a few years ago. It definitely has changed a lot since I was a kid in the previous millennium.

      I also got back into Lego. I’m early 20s, so the sets of my childhood weren’t that different from what’s being made now.

      But it is cool to finally have the Death Star and Millennium Falcon like middle school me fantasized about.

      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.

    • 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.

    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

    😅 Coloring books. Dino nuggies. Chocolate milk. Cartoons. Plushies. Fairy tales.

    Also, ATLA is amazing no matter what age you are 🤩
