And I’m not counting things like what you do or get when you grow up like having a bank account or getting a real job. Nor am I accepting the whole ‘I just grew up’.

My sign of my childhood ending or accepting that it has ended is when all of the nu-metal bands I was introduced to and listened to a lot of us just ended up fractured. They all didn’t endure the passage of time and it was really just a matter of you had to be there to know how popular they were or the scene was.

The bands I used to have listened to have gone the way of Classic Rock on the radio. Spammed tracks from some bands because that’s all the DJ knows or that’s all they’re allowed to play.

            Just in case you’re being serious, I’ll be the responsible adult and say that penises are just like most other body parts and simply grow with the rest of the body until adulthood.

              Thank you. I don’t have one, so I wasn’t sure if it like… Shed or something? I don’t know, I don’t know what’s going on down there, but you guys are doing great.

            Re: shedding, that’s a problem for some people later in life. Most people need to trim back the foreskin on a regular basis, but for some, it just sloughs right off like your toenails.

            That’s why it’s important to wear briefs as a child - one day, it just falls right off, and you wanna catch it. You don’t want that little fucker rolling out the bottom of your pants leg in the middle of church.
