well yeah, you can also say everyone is still a reptile but evolution just made us better at hiding it.

You can say a lot of things. Think about it. There are things. You can say them. And then they are said.

i would tend to believe that looking for sodomy via the internet could be scary given the number of variables involved. I would personally probably prefer something a little more like window shopping.


Posted by Halcyon+On+On on Nov-18-2011 18:00:

Yeah, could be Kentucky State Troopers trying to entrap you!

Maturity = giving up on your dreams


Posted by Halcyon+On+On on Nov-18-2011 18:26:

That's a pretty pathetic point of view. But then again, so are most adages and bumper-sticker advice that have to do with dreams or whatnot.

Maturity = Not buying into trite "bumper-sticker" slogans.

That has all the feel of a bumper-sticker.

Maturity = Drinking champagne for no reason at all.






Better?


Posted by meriter on Nov-18-2011 19:50:

That sounds more like alcoholism

Well, I do have experience with both champagne and alcoholism.








Maturity = Knowing when to say when


Posted by meriter on Nov-18-2011 19:55:

when the bottle is empty

That's just knowing when to get more.

Maturity is a pipe and a sensible haircut.

"To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." - C.S. Lewis

I don't think they make bumper stickers that big.
