2. You sometimes eat cereal for lunch…

Guilty.

[yellowdoghunter]

And cold sandwiches for dinner....guilty. You try cooking when it’s 105 outside!

[jmacusa]

I snack on Life Cereal or Kix (Fruit Loops sometimes) right out of the box like you would eating potato chips. Been doing that since I was a kid.

Yo dude. Off topic, but...

Dabo said he has watched the film and thinks if Clemson and FSU played 10 times Clemson would win 5 and FSU would win 5.

Well, maybe not so off target. Dabo needs to grow up...

[Mr. K]

heck I sometimes eat cereal for dinner

the new chocolate gluten-free chex are de-lish!

and honey-nut cheerios are good for you, so its like a salad

My unproveable theory;

Adam and Eve were created as mature adults .. never went through puberty

Jesus is refered to as the last Adam

Jesus ministry (maturity) began at 30 and ended at 33

thus

I conclude a man matures in the 30 - 35 year block.

That theory holds true to my own life and as I observe the world around me.

[knarf]

Raisin Bran is my night time cereal of choice ... keeps me regular.

[MaxMax]

You are 100% right. Looking back I didn’t become fully aware until about 33.

4. Your ultimate career goal is to get to the point where you can go to work in your pyjamas

I sometimes CAN work in my pjs (software development working from home) but it wasn't a career goal.

[knarf]

Thanx, I appreciate the nod.

Like I said ... it's unproveable ... unless everybody agrees with me .. and if THAT happens ... I'm running for President !

Signs you are a proper grown up (and then some):
     You worry about which cereal will keep you regular.

• 2. You sometimes eat cereal for lunch…
• 9. You’ve been known to return from a weekly food shop with six bottles of wine generic soda pop, three packets of Supernoodles and a single apple
• 10. You and your housemates do clean the place, but you can’t get it to look as clean as home did
• 15. You’ve realised there’s no point in buying sugar, salt or pepper for your kitchen when you can get those little sachets free in so many food outlets…
• 16. …and the plastic cutlery is useful for when washing up seems too stressful
• 27. You took a coat to be dry-cleaned once and talked about it for days because it made you sound so grown-up
• 28. You still make a Christmas list each year…

Guilty as charged!

• 4. Your ultimate career goal is to get to the point where you can go to work in your pyjamas

Been there, done that, still doing it. I win!

Which is why I eat this.

[Boiler Plate]

Geez I eat cereal for dinner.

I pretty much own 1 to 4 and my kids are out of college.

[dfwgator]

I’ve even been known to occasionally have *gasp* Ramen Noodles.

[knarf]

And if I left my teeth on the nightstand or actually put them in that plastic thing with the fizzie.

[Alex Murphy]

I’ve even been known to occasionally have *gasp* Ramen Noodles.

Ah, but do you eat them unreconstituted, i.e. right out of the package?

[bonfire]

The fizzie is in the plastic thingy but where are my damn teef!

[dfwgator]

I’ve done that!
