I really like being on a message board with adults.
I go on one with mostly teenagers, and the problem is that they act like, well, teenagers.

They can't spell, they think they're always right, and they're constantly going "EWW EWW EWW!" when people mention things that are not exactly their flavor.

Just some of them, not all of them, but still.

9. Sounds like Craigslist
Their classified ads are great, but the forums are full of flamers, trolls, and kids. Not worth the aggravation.

15. One of the few funny things Jerry Seinfeld ever said....
Don't get me wrong. I loved Seinfeld the TV show but I've never been much of a fan of his stand-up,

What causes homophobia? What is it that makes a heterosexual man worry? I think it's because men know that deep down we have weak sales resistance. We're constantly buying shoes that hurt us, pants that don't fit right. Men think, "Obviously I can be talked into anything. What if I accidentally wander into some sort of homosexual store, thinking it's a shoe store, and the salesman goes, 'Just hold this guy's hand, walk around the store a little bit, see how you feel. No obligation, no pressure, just try it. Would you like to see him in a sandal?'"

:rofl:

Holy Crap. If I wanted to talk to a teenager, I'd log off and talk to my kids.

19. dont forget
that in order to talk like someone less than your current age that you MuSt refrain from capitalization punctuations grammar correct speeling proofreading proper links runnon sentence structure and anything else that makes you seem like a mature adult or at least someone that actually paid some modicum of attention in gradeschool much less college if you were so lucky or university if you were elitist enough to get on a trustfund from mummy and daddy and heavenforbid you managed to get a doctorate in something completely useless to the teen mind :P
