Playing
Why don't adults "play"? I know some adults talk about "playing," but it usually seems to mean going out to eat, to a bar or some other appropriate "adult" activity. I want to know why adults can't get together with their friends, pick up a few sticks in the backyard, and have a huge sword fight. Why isn't it socially acceptable for adults to run around the neighborhood, pretending to be on a quest? These are things I think more adults would be interested in doing than we might realize.

Is this a confession that you really would like to do that? Jordan would totally do that with you.
ReplyDeletei'm an adult, and my boyfriend and i have pillow fights all the time. one of these days i'll find us jumping on our bed.
ReplyDeletealso: ever heard of LARPers? Live Action Role Playing. It is essentially adults getting together and acting out a videogame and hitting each other with pvc pipe. they dress up and yell life stats at each other too. it's pretty funny.
