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?

    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 😅

    I love avatar the last airbender too. I haven’t found a show like it since. Besides that, I still like anime (though less nowadays because of some sexist parts)

      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.

      I should probably get one seeing how I often end up just hugging the blanket when I sleep.

      I vaguely recall an article linked on the SITE THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED that something like 40% of adults sleep with a stuffed animal or comfort object

      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?

        They don’t care, at worst they just assume you’re buying them for a kid. It takes a lot more than that for a cashier to even notice.

        So go get some smiles, those things are delicious.

      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.

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

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

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

    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.

    YA Novels can be good – such an easy, engaging story. I really enjoyed the “I am Number Four” and “Jumper” series-es.
