The opposite of tribdog, smurf, and I.
 
"Tits away, I'm hurt"

is an anagram of

"what is maturity?"
 
"My tits hurt, Waia" is also an anagram..
 
So is "what air is my tut?"
 
Oh grow up! Saying "t*ts" isn't big, and it isn't clever. Nobody is impressed with this kind of banter. Now if you were to say "jugs" a few times and swap the letters around a bit, that's an entirely different matter. Women will find you attractive and men will respect you. You may even find yourself in line for a Nobel prize, who knows?
 
I'm more mature than any of you immature people! NA-NI-NA-NI-NAH-NAH! :smile: :smile: :smile:
 
Maturity is not snickering and giggling whenever you hear the word 'booger' :biggrin:.

we still did that in high school (we would have claimed out of humour) and probably would still do it now.

All these years and you're still sore about us pointing at you and saying "ooooooooouuuuuhhhhh." Boy, you sure hold a grudge. :-p

You know you're mature when you find yourself rolling your eyes at people and muttering, "Oh, grow up." :rolleyes: :-p

maturity is the abitily to rise above petty'ness' and fickle arguments and the ability to see a problem in perspective, but not too much perspective, or you'll end up realising that we are a tiny planet in a tiny solar system in a possibly bigger galaxy, in, depending on what you believe one of many universes... you then realize that nothing matters...
