It’s not uncommon to have specific favorites or passions that we hold onto tightly, even when it might seem irrational to others. There are some favorites that we cannot get rid of.
A user asked the forum, “What is one thing you will never grow out of?”. Here are the top responses.
GAMING
“Gaming.”
OVERSIZED HOODIE
“The oversized hoodie my mom got me.”
CARTOONS
“Cartoons/ animation shows and movies.”
LEGOS
“Legos. I am in my 50s and still like to put together a build now and then.”
STUFFED ANIMALS
“Stuffed animals. I’m in high school, and I have over 20+ stuffed animals in my room. I used to have more, but I got rid of them a while ago. Don’t worry, I’m not ashamed of having them. I think they are awesome.”
READING
“Reading comics and graphic novels.”
BEING POSITIVE
“Being positive and cheery! Because being positive and cheerful is the key to making everyone around you happy too.”
FRUIT SNACKS
“Fruit snacks. I buy them for my kids’ lunchboxes, but I also buy myself some.”
GUITAR
“Guitar. You can do so many things with it, especially the electric guitar. First, it sounds like a human voice, but when you add effects, you can make it sound like any instrument. Make it sound like a Sitar or Violin or anything.
Check out Cathedral by Van Halen; he makes it sound like a violin. Other instruments may sound decent, but an electric piano synth with a guitar effect sounds very artificial. Observe it if you ever hear one.”
WATCHING PRO WRESTLING
“Watching pro wrestling. It’s uncommon in my peer group, but I caught that virus as a 13-year-old kid over 35 years ago and never lost it.”
SNACK FEAST
“Snack feast. Load a plate of snacks such as sweets, crisps, and the odd sandwich or two.
My grandma would often make them for my brothers and me when we visited her for the school holidays and would call it a 1000 and 1 piece. It’s like Christmas or a birthday party food being served as a meal.”
SWINGING
“Swinging on the big swing sets. It makes my stomach tickle and flip, and I can laugh like I’m still ten years old. I do it even when I’m down. Instant mood lift. Soaring through the air.”
RUNNING
“Running up the stairs. Don’t care how old I get; I will attempt to run up those stairs no matter what.”
CURIOSITY
“Curiosity about the world, learning, and adapting continues indefinitely.”
CEREAL
“Cereal. I love so many of them.”
ANIMATED MOVIES
“Watching Japanese anime or Animated movies in general.”
DINOSAURS
“Dinosaurs. Please, I want a brachiosaurus so bad.”
CLASSIC FILMS
“My love for manga and classic films. I wake up early to read/or watch and stay in bed under the covers. Always makes me feel happy like it did when I was a little kid.”
WHIPPED CREAM
“Squirting whipped cream directly into my mouth.”
DISNEY
“Disney. I am 37 years old and spent most of my life going to Disneyland because I lived so close. I will never be ashamed of loving it!”
TUNA SANDWICH
“Homemade tuna sandwich and watching cartoons on a Saturday morning.”
HOT WHEELS
“Hot Wheels. I have 100s. Just bought the batmobile from the Flash movie a couple of weeks ago.”
METAL DETECTING
“Metal detecting. Yes, wearing black socks and shorts. Swinging the coil, soaking up the sun, digging bottle caps, pulling tabs, and the occasional treasure.”
SOAP BUBBLES
“Soap bubbles. I love doing the dishes and getting some bubbles in the air around me.”
GYM
“Gym, football, or even inline skating. We have a small window of prime, so you bet I’ll carry those on for as long as possible!”
ROLLERBLADING
“Rollerblading. I’m in my 30s, and it still makes me feel like a giddy little kid.”
LOGGING
“Logging. My dad took me cutting logs before I was big enough or strong enough to swing an ax.
I grew, though. It never gets old.”
ROCKS
“Rocks. They’re cool, and I love giving them to people.”
MAKING JOKES
“Making jokes. Even not very elaborate ones. Then laughing at them like a child.”
WATER PARKS
“Water parks. They have been my absolute favorite thing to do for decades. I’m a 37-year-old male, and I routinely go in the summer. I have held season passes and will go multiple times per week. I usually go alone, which is a bummer, but life is too short not to do what you love.”
