What is a fun childish thing you still do as an adult? - midwest.social

For me, it’s sticking my hand out of the window of a moving car. Whether I’m driving or not, I love having the windows down and waving my hand in the wind. I’ve loved it since I was a child and I’ll never stop doing it!

Breaking hard-boiled eggs on my forehead when having visitors. I’m 40 something.
I like to knock on hard-boiled eggs to break them. Seems more polite.
I don’t knock for noone.
Sandwich biscuits (like Oreo and the likes, but there are plenty local brands) are extremely popular among kids where I live. I still eat them, the same way as I did as a kid: split them in halves, eat the filling-less halves, and then join the halves with filling so I get to eat biscuits with 2x more filling.
Oh thank god I’m no longer alone! Not that I probably was, I imagine tons of people do this, but I was the only one in my family that did. Whoo! There are at least two of us now!
Wait. What? I’m not the only one doing this weird shit, yay!
Happened so much they came out with double stuffed oreos… to which I clearly still did the same and had “4x” the center
Listening to bedtime stories, well now its audiobooks but its just the best way to fall asleep
DINO NUGGETS
Those just hit different
Thr pterodactyls are the best.
I love my nuggies as much as the next self respecting autistic, but I’ve bitten into too many bones to stay with the dinos… Even if they’d slap with the air fryer now. 😢
Which would you advise to a hungry person with not enough chicken nuggets in their lives?
I go with whatever giant bag I can grab at Costco.

Every once in a while when I’m out grocery shopping, I’ll buy a coloring book, Silly Putty or Play-doh. They’re soothing distractions and the smell of the crayons, putty and doh really take me back.

Also, if I’m a passenger in a car and it’s raining, I still play the “rain drop race” game on the window. Good times.

Yes, the rain drop race! I’ll exclaim accidentally and people I’m with just never seem to understand.
It’s the little things :)
oh yes, the smell of silly putty!
Running up stairs on all fours, like a monkey
Congrats on still being able to bend over at 40! I’m 2 years from 30 and everytime I bend over something pops lol.
If you’re not stretching daily, you’re gonna hate life. I’m also not stretching daily so uhhh do as I say not as I do? Lol

I can recomend to do just something easy. Find easiest and shortest routine (that lasts 2 minutes, literally) and do it in the morning.

Since I startet it, I feel much much better. It is not like full exercise, but at least muscles don’t hurt as much.

I do:

  • Head and Shoulder Rolls x5 to each side
  • Hip Circles:l x5 to each side
  • Arm Circles x5 to each side
  • squats x10
  • some others similar warm up exercises when I feel like it (ex. malasana squat)

Idea is to move every muscle in my body. It is not hard, lasts 2-3 minutes but makes my day few percents nicer.

You should add in toe touches, everyone should be able to touch their toes without bending at the knees. I recommend bending you’re knees, touch your toes, straighten your knees out till you feel the stretch, hold for a few seconds, do like 10 times.
It’s just more efficient!
Me too bro. We all have a MONKE inside us.
Stepping on crunchy leaves
Can’t help it either
Perfection 👌🏻
Blowing soap bubbles and accidently spilling half of the fluid.
Sometimes when I drive into a roundabout I’ll do a couple laps just for fun
Same! That roundabout happens to be right next to where we work on our racecar so it feels extra fun lol
I’ve never done this but reading this made me want to go do it next time!
Kicking, stabbing, and otherwise destroying ant mounds! It’s especially satisfying when you expose the eggs and get to watch the ants scramble to get them to safety!
Handstands in the pool, 37 here
One hundred percent do this as well
I’m a stay at home dad so I’m constantly playing house and building towers so my kid can knock them down. Good stuff.
I still ride my loaded grocery cart down the parking lot to my car after each trip. It’s the little things in life.
You’ve got the wheels right there, no reason not to use them.
Work smarter not harder.
I love skating in the parking lot with an empty shopping cart! But since I had a little unhappy accident I’m a bit afraid of using a cart full of groceries.
Wait…adults don’t do this? Shit, my parents always did, and I do because it’s faster than walking xD
I don’t trust people who don’t do this at least once per shopping trip.
One thing I do that I have since I can remember is triple cut the slices on a frozen pizza so that each slice is a single bite. Makes the pizza extra good!
A few months ago, I was outside blowing bubbles with my 4 year old. She moved on to something else, but I kept it up for a while. I forgot how fun it is to watch them fly off and see how far they go!
I don’t think I ever really stopped being a child, cuz I still do pretty much everything I did when I was 10. lol
Balance on random things when I’m walking. Also imagine racing my cart sometimes when I’m at the store.
Trying to see if I gained superpowers like trying to shoot webs to see if I became spiderman.
It’s not that often that I’m in a car I’m not driving anymore, but when I’m a passenger you can bet your ass I’m imagining a little ninja dude running along side the car, doing sick ninja flips over stuff on the side of the road.
I thought I was the only one that did this! Glad to know there are others out there!
For me it’s a skateboarder. Doing kickflips into grinding the rails and using the environment as ramps and obstacles. Tunnels suck.
Same, but for me it’s a BMX bike.
Laugh at farts, fart noises, fart jokes. Farts are funny heh heh
My grandma is nearly 90 years old and still laughs at farts until she’s blue in the face. Never gets old.
