I'm 27 And I

-  Know, and regularly recite, all the words to Willy Bum Bum (if you don't know it, search for it on YouTube or watch it here).

-  Own a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles t shirt.

-  Haven't really mastered a new skill since I learned to drive.  I can cook very simple things but still get overly flustered over cooking for no apparent reason.

-  Still laugh at my jokes.  Especially if no one else is laughing.

-  Am still trying to become a Pokemon master.

-  Realised that my favourite foods are ones that you don't have to chew very much.  Mashed potato and tomato soup feature quite highly on this list.



-  Have to dramatically act out Tenacious D's Tribute whenever I hear it.

-  Only recently discovered that Fanta is a pile of shit. 

-  Own, in conjunction with Mrs Addman, over 500 DVDs and Blu Rays.  This isn't a confession, this is more of a brag.

- Am more addicted to sugar now than I was when I was a child.

- Did this same article when I was 23 and 25, and most of that stuff still applies today.

Well I've listed a bunch of embaressing stuff, and now it's your turn.  Come on, 'fess up, what are your kidulthood confessions?

  1. I relate way too much to a lot of these things. Hell yeah, TMNT t-shirt! Hell yeah Tenacious D's Tribute! Hell yeah foods you don't have to chew too much (you writing that helped me realize I too enjoy non-chewing food stuffs).
    I still and will forever, hopefully, enjoy a good fart joke. When I'm in my car driving to work, I will often spontaneously attempt to beat-box. And my final confession: I will annually attempt to move things with telekinesis just to see if I somehow manifested a mutant power or developed the power of the Force.

    1. Yes! I do the telekinesis thing too! In fact, I walk towards doors with my arm up and try to push them open with my mind. When it doesn't work, I don't look like an idiot because it looks like I was just lifting my arm to open the door manually, but one of these I swear it'll work.

  2. I'm right there with you regarding the Willy Bum Bum song and Tribute by Tenacious D. Unfortunately I've abandoned my hope of becoming a Pokemon Master over the past few years.

    Let's see. I read Bleach Manga. Like Pickleope, I beat-box but all the time. My friends and I chuckle at the varying ways one can say 'pussy'. And, I play with my peepee just as much now as I did back in the day.

    1. Oh yeah, you've gotta play with to make sure it still works.

      Although I have to sag, spilling bleach on your manga is very irresponsible. I'd suggest you don't read it on the toilet in future.

  3. I'm not much of a cook either and do also have to dramatically re enact Tribute. Well, I own 7 stuffed animals and have more on the way, and have a surprisingly impressive toy collection.

    1. Yes! Another vote for Tribute! Everyone gets down to the D! I think we should all meet up and reenact Tribute, if that wasn't so tragically sad.

  4. I'm old enough to remember when they were called Teenage Mutant HERO turtles because the grown ups in charge thought the word NINJA would cause idiot kids like me headbutt moving cars or swallow piss covered razor blades or something.

    I still call Snickers - Marathons and Starbursts - Opal Fruits.

    If it contains spam - I'll eat it.

    I own more comics than I have room for and had to buy a new bed just so I could use the space underneath as storage.

    I love custard Creams... but you knew that. hahahahaha

    1. Oh yes, I remember them being called Hero turtles, but we always called them Ninja turtle anyway, because let's face it, they were ninjas.

      I agree on the spam front. Spam is a delicious meat. I'd like to meet the animal responsible and shake it warmly by the hoof.

  5. You're twenty-seven? Why, you're just a kid. I mean that in the very best way, tinged with jealousy. Take care.

    1. Did you think I was older? I can see how my immense wisdom and battle-hardened fizzog might have fooled you. I'll catch you up on the age front some day :)

  6. I know I am the slightly eccentric CHILD of cyberspace but I can fit two of you into me . . . . I refer to age not anything else I am a nice chap...... I love mashed potato but with loads of butter. You cant beat a mashed potato butty . . . . . if you have not tried one you should .. . . you will not regret it.

    Luckily I have reached the age where mentally I am now going backwards so at some point soon I will pass you heading in the other direction, saying things like OOOO LOOK a MAN WITH A BLUE HEAD.

  7. Kidulthood confessions...obviously I don't have any. I am a shining example of adulthoodedness and everything I say and do is done with utmost maturity. Saying that, I do giggle when someone says 'well, what I do do is...', mentally burst into a song whatever anyone says to me, e.g hello, how you doing? (sorry you couldnt get through, why dont you leave etc.) or I like (big butts and I cannot lie) and so on and so forth. When someone is angry or arguing with me or crying, I have an overwhelming desire to laugh even though I dont want to.I always have pudding before a meal.When I have sauce I always make sure its a smiley face. Smarties, skittles or m&ms are always divided up into colour groupings and eaten in a very specific manner. I have been known to go down the stairs on my bum just because. Damn this list is endless! I shall stop now and leave you with the knowledge that I loved TMNT and the answer to that question is Raphael and yeah. Surely thats enough to get me kicked out of the adult club.

    1. Wow, loads of great things here that I might try and pick some of these up myself. Especially that going down stairs on my bum thing, that sounds like loads of childish fun.
