I'm the kinda guy thats interested in lots of things like Yugioh, beyblades,Ninja Turtles. But I sorta feel embarrased because I'm 17 and to see all these little kiddies swapping cards and playing I feel obscure. Does anyone out there feel like me. PLease let me know to know I'm not alone.

You're as old as you feel. In the street where i live there's a 60 year old man who plays with electric trains all day. Just do what you like, not what others expect from you. ;)

Only when you yourself think you're too young for something, then you can qualify yourself as too young. What other people think of you, or think of the things you like is of minor importance. I admit it: when I was 17, I liked the idea of Pokemon, although it is considered 'childish'. Who cares? It's your life after all!

People around me, including myself, were all pokemon fanatics. We taped the shows, bought dvd's, the girls bought the stuffed animals. And we were 17 years and older! Whatever, we had fun. My sister watches spongebob and my dad watches DBZ & DBGT and they're 26 and 51 years old!!

Yeah, cartoons are cool!

Especially Ren&Stimpy, although that is an adult-cartoon, since it contains absurdist humor and disgusting drawings :D

I don't plan on ever developing a "too old" frame of mind. I'll be kid forever, and my wife (whomever may gain that status) will have to be able to deal with it :D .

Bah, you're never too old to do something! :D If you quit doing something because it just seems childish, you're just burnt out on it, like I was with getting Yu-Gi-Oh cards. All people think when you get older, you should quit doing things kids do, but you're never too old to do that. I know a guy in his twenties, he collects Yu-Gi-Oh, watching Dragon Ball Z, collects video games, the whole nine yards, and he's cool in my book [img]graemlins/arcadefreak.gif[/img]
