25 SIGNS YOU HAVE GROWN UP
 
     1. Your houseplants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them.
 
     2. Having sex in a twin bed is out of the question.
 
     3. You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
 
    4. 6:00 AM is when you get up,not when you go to bed.
 
     5. You hear your favorite song in an elevator.
 
     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 vacation time to 14.
 
     9. Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up."
 
    10. You're the one calling the police because those %&@# kids next door won't turn down the stereo.
 
    11. Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you.
 
    12. You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.
 
    13. Your car insurance goes down and your car payments go up.
 
    14. You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald's leftovers.
 
    15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.
 
    16. You take naps.
 
    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. You go to the drug store for ibuprofen and antacid, not condoms and pregnancy tests.
 
    20. A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good shit."
 
    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 shit what the hell happened?"
 
Bonus:
 
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 ass.
 
    Then you forward it to a bunch of old friends 'cause you know they'll enjoy it & do.
 
    And now you know why I am forwarding this to you...

1. ) My houseplants are all dead...because I couldn't smoke any of them!
2. ) Having sex is out of the question...what was the question?
3. ) Haven't had a beer in the fridge for about 6 months!
4. ) I work odd hours, so 6:00 AM is irrelevant for me.
5. ) The only elevators I ride are in a retirement home, and they do not play music.
6. ) I haven't had a working television for a year now...but I used to watch the Weather Channel...
7. ) My friends are all too old to get either married or divorced...now we all just try to stay alive.
8. ) Actually, now I'm up to 4 weeks of vacation time.  That means I'm older than whoever made up this list in the first place!
9.  ) Dressed is dressed up!
10.) There are no kids in my neighborhood...except when grandchildren visit...then they're too young to stay up late playing music!
11.) My older relatives don't even remember sex...much less jokes about it!
12.) Who cares what time Taco Bell closes? "How late can I get indigestion" would be a more appropriate question!
13.) My car is paid off...and the insurance did get a little decrease by switching companies.
14.) No dogs...no pets.  No other life forms share my space.
15.) My back hurts most of the time anyway!
16.) Yes, I take naps.
17.) That's a date?  I thought it was the beginning of a nap!
18.) I'm a breast man...wings don't have enough meat.
19.) Yeah, well...
20.) For $4.00 it better be pretty good!
21.) Coffee is breakfast food!
22.) I can't drink the way I used to because I promised myself I wouldn't drink that much again! I don't drink as much in a year as I used to drink in one night!
23.) 90% of my home computer time is play. 
24.) I don't drink much at home, and I don't go to bars at all.
25.) If any of my friends get pregnant, I'll proclaim it a miracle!  I'll probably also ask if it was implanted!
 
26.) I'm at the age when I can remember when I looked forward to mail.  Now I clean the garbage out of my mailbox searching for bills. 
27.) I've learned the three most important keys for reading email: Ctrl+A, and Delete.
