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.
Yes, but you’re liable to break your dad’s spine that way.
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 😅
Me too!
Gotta protect your momma’s back!
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)
sound effects with my mouth…engine noises, explosions, etc
Pretending to use The Force to open automatic doors.
Oh, it isn’t just me then…
Chocolate milk.
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 like banana flavoured milk too
I am a 38-year-old adult and I love Tamagotchis. Also Pokemon, anime, comic books, stickers, sitting on the floor, and using the shower wand as a microphone.
Got into Lego again a few years ago. It definitely has changed a lot since I was a kid in the previous millennium.
You’re all just being human. You’re not childish, just being human.
Sleeping with a teddy bear
Nothing wrong with sleeping with stuff animals.
I should probably get one seeing how I often end up just hugging the blanket when I sleep.
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
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?
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.
Lemmygrad is a marxist-focused instance and Hexbear is currently making the migration to mainline Lemmy right now.

Childfree gang?
There’s a distinction between child-ish and child-like. So far I haven’t seen anyone say they enjoy anything child-ish (except maybe alternative song lyrics?), but all the lovely child-like responses warm my heart. I eat “sugar cereal” for dessert. Because I’m an adult and I can. Also, I make up silly songs all the time and talk to myself and my cats in silly voices.
