26 SIGNS YOU HAVE GROWN UP
1. Your houseplants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them.
2. Having sex in a single bed is out of the question.
3. You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
4. 7:00am is when you get up, not when you go to bed.
5. You hear your favourite song in a lift.
6. You watch the Weather Channel.
7. Your friends marry and divorce instead of "hook up" and "break up."
8. You go from 130 days of holidays to 20.
9. Jeans and a Jumper no longer qualify as "dressed up."
10. You're the one calling the police because those f**king kids next door won't turn down the stereo.
11. Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you.
13. Your car insurance goes down and your car payments go up.
14. You feed your dog Pedigree chum instead of McDonald's leftovers.
15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.
16. You take naps from noon to 6 pm.
17. Dinner and a movie is the whole date instead of the beginning of one.
18. Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 am would severely upset, rather than settle, your stomach.
19. If you're a girl, you go to the chemists for ibuprofen and antacid, not condoms and pregnancy tests.
20. A £4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good stuff."
21. You actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time.
22. "I just can't drink the way I used to" replaces "I'm never going to drink that much again."
23. 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real work.
24. You drink at home to save money before going to a bar.
25: When you find out your friend is pregnant you congratulate them instead of asking "Oh s**t - what happened?
26. You read this entire list looking desperately for one sign that doesn't apply to you and can't find one to save your sorry old butt.

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

15 out of 26, I'm 57% grown up. The older I get, the more pleased about it I get too

Soooo, sooooo true, except for 2,9,17,18,22,23 and 25 would be a real shock!
It was obviously compiled by a young guy who thinks it's all true, but is obviously in for a pleasant surprise when he grows up.
Tell them about the bent treacle edges!
