Drivel that cannot fit in a single panel comic.

I'm taking the afternoon off to see Wallace and Gromit: Curse of the Wererabbit at the movie theater. Walter and I will eat lunch and then go to the movie.

Received this from a friend:

25 SIGNS YOU HAVE GROWN UP :(

  1. Your house plants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them. (I do not have any houseplants)
  2. Having sex in a twin bed is out of the question. (I'm still flexible enough)
  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. (Unless I'm having a bout of insomnia)
  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. (My vacation in measured in hours and I have more than 14 days worth because I'm such a dedicated employee)
  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. (The %&@! kids next door are actually the same age and the sound system in their vehicle also serves as the sound system for their house)
  11. Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you. (I have to mentally brace myself when I receive an e-mail from my mother.)
  12. You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.
  13. Your car insurance goes down and your car payments go up.
  14. You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald's leftovers.
  15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.
  16. You no longer take naps from noon to 6 PM! (I got a @#$%! job!)
  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 now severely upsets, rather than settles, 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. (Does Fruit Loops and chocolate soy milk count as food?)
  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 drink at home to save money before going to a bar. (I don't go to bars)
  25. You read this entire list looking desperately for one sign that doesn't apply to you and can't find one to save your sorry old butt.

I'm wearing a Patrick watch that came from a cereal box. I'm so mature :P
