Hooky

I was just reading an article about the maturity and development of the 20-something male in America. The thesis behind this woman's work is that the modern male takes longer to leave the adolescent faze, sometimes waiting until entering well into the mid twenties to take on responsibilities of adulthood.

Along those lines, I confess that on Wednesday I proudly waved a one finger salute to my boss and my crazy deadlines. I played hooky from work to play a video game I downloaded the night before.

Take that adulthood!

Someone explain to me again what the benefits are for the modern male to jump into adulthood?

In my experience there aren't a lot of bennies for the modern female, either. Fucking hate being a grown up. Except there's beer.

I am not sure Peter Pan.
May be it is the beer or being able to legelly sleep with Stiffler's Mama.
But its best not to grow up or quit believing in fairies.
