25 Signs That You’ve Grown Up

Here’s a list of 25 signs that you’ve moved on from your crazy university days and into adulthood. It doesn’t necessarily mean that your lust for life has to end — my thirties represent some of the best and wildest times I’ve had (“He doesn’t need a bachelor party, his goddamn life has been a bachelor party,” said my buddy George once). But yes, I haven’t stumbled from a party at 6 a.m. in quite some time.

A quick note about item 24, “You drink at home to save money before going to a bar”: we always did that back at Crazy Go Nuts University. We called it “warming up”.

  • Indeed, I've also done that for years. Started in university, and continued on after university for at least 3-4 years. Don't do it much over here in Ireland these days, but that's primarily because I don't go *out* in Ireland all that much :)

  • "I just can't drink the way I used to," replaces, "I'm never going to drink that much again."

    Um yeah. UM, YEAH.

  • At the UWashington, that was referred to as "prefunk". The most memorable occasions were before home football games, where it started at 10 am with pancakes and mimosas.

  • #24 is called pre-drinking. It becomes unneccesary when two pints of Stella will do you in. Ergo, it's a young man's game.

  • I have managed to kill all my plants, and I do have more beer in the fridge than food. I do not watch the Weather Channel, but, I have heard my favourite song on an elevator (or the lobby of my building) more than once.

    Mmmh, I'm kinda grown up, kinda not so much, I guess.
