I like to do ALL of those things, except video games. I played Atari in my 20's though.

You know, I even think adults in their 40's like to do different things than adults in their mid to late 20's.

Teens probably wouldn't mind bar hopping--IF they could get away with it. Bar hopping was never that big for me, but I might go to shoot pool or sing karaoke. I still don't mind doing those things, I just don't seem to get around to doing them.

That is unfair but I still dont have those answers either, as to why they want to demolish the United States, I really dont understand that It was the best system ever...

All I can say is; you need to stop living your life in fear
Gee mucus, I had hoped to get back to you earlier with an apology. It was unkind of me to respond to you in the manner which I did and I'm sorry for doing so.
The Christmas holiday never seems to uplift my spirit, it's a time when I find myself more depressed than usual, perhaps something to do with my past. Please don't
take my snarky reply to heart, it was not meant to be an attack on you but moreso a reflection upon my own problems. I promise to be more respectful of you
(and, of others) as we move along into this new year. I really should revise my personal recipe (or formula), for the homebrewed Egg-Nog, and next year, use real rum
instead of my usual mixture of lacquer thinner and coffin varnish.

Of course you can have adults doing teen things and teens doing adult things.

One thing I didn't mention is girls like to shop together in a mall and some teens still like to hang out in malls. But I don't see how shopping or hanging out in a shopping is recreational and enjoyable these days.

Usually, towns and cities these days with plenty of cultural scene are the popular cities and towns and ones people want to live in.

Shopping is only enjoyable if you have the money, LOL! As a young adult, I find myself enjoying both adult and teen-like activities.

Seems more of an "urban/suburban" list of things that teens and adults like to do.
Of all those, movies and working out are the things I tend to do.
Hiking, fishing, shooting, poking around old ruins, spelunking, now that's what I consider a good time.
Sadly, never could get anyone else to go.

"what are we supposed to do there"**in a nasally whiny voice**

MAYBE that's YOUR definition. I've seen many men at malls and such. AND many of these "MEN" proved it in combat or everyday lives. Just because every man doesn't hang around gunshows and shops doesn't mean they're not a man

Sounds a lot like myself actually and I wouldnt say I have a sad existence. Just because a lot of us choose not to jump up and down singing "Happy Happy Joy Joy" or choosing to be antisocial shouldnt put us into the sorry sad existence category.

Im 39 and I like laying on the couch watching documentaries on TV, kicking back in the recliner listening to classical music, and sitting outside watching the deer and hummingbirds eat.

Nice pic BTW Reminds me of one job I was on I was doing security at a site where they were building a new school and one morning as the sun popped up I saw several deer all around me just grazing on the grass [they hadn't dug that section up yet]. I sat there very silent and enjoyed watchiong them up close [had a couple walk up so close I could have reached out and touched them]
