For me, it’s sticking my hand out of the window of a moving car. Whether I’m driving or not, I love having the windows down and waving my hand in the wind. I’ve loved it since I was a child and I’ll never stop doing it!

    Walking/balancing on curbs, retaining walls, downed trees in the forest - pretty much anything.

    Riding the grocery carts through the store if nobody is around to hit. Ive slammed into a display once, took almost 5 min to get it back together, and no employees came to help the entire time, but i dont blame them.

    It’s not that often that I’m in a car I’m not driving anymore, but when I’m a passenger you can bet your ass I’m imagining a little ninja dude running along side the car, doing sick ninja flips over stuff on the side of the road.

          I can recomend to do just something easy. Find easiest and shortest routine (that lasts 2 minutes, literally) and do it in the morning.

          Since I startet it, I feel much much better. It is not like full exercise, but at least muscles don’t hurt as much.

          I do:

          • Head and Shoulder Rolls x5 to each side
          • Hip Circles:l x5 to each side
          • Arm Circles x5 to each side
          • squats x10
          • some others similar warm up exercises when I feel like it (ex. malasana squat)

          Idea is to move every muscle in my body. It is not hard, lasts 2-3 minutes but makes my day few percents nicer.

    This is more of a highschool childish, but occasionally I like to smoke weed and stay up till 3am playing video games. Then call in sick for work the next day of course

        If you want a boring, pretty much dead monoculture of a patch of grass, you gotta work for it. ;) I think that real nature, including useful plants for bees and other critters have much more value. Children should play on lush meadows with flowers and interesting insects to discover, instead of a mentally and visually dull organic carpet, that is merely a facade for wannabe-perfection.

          Totally agree with you. As small as my patch of lawn is, I’ve still thrown loads of clover, nasturtium, compost, etc. I’m trying to help it become a self-sustaining ecosystem, but I’ll admit, I’m kinda winging it.

    I play pretend, two hand touch football, Frisbee, study ant hills, build snow forts, sandcastles, etc. Who said being an adult meant no fun would be had?

    Play with swords.

    I do historical reenactment in the SCA and the fencers use actual metal blades to fight. It’s HEMA but with fun clothes and a ton of other optional activities like brewing and making our own coins (those are my chosen activities, but a lot of people do costuming, calligraphy, music, apothecary… the list goes on).

    It makes my inner child so happy 😊

    when you go shopping, push off with your trolley and pull yourself up to go for a little ride down an empty isle. 40m and I still do it

    Me and my wife (no kids) have recently decided to do the ‘stuff you enjoyed being a kid’ type outings. Such as dino parks, castles, zoos, theme parks.

    If you are an adult having kids is usually how you end up in those places and we decided just to do those things for ourselves.

    I don’t think I ever really stopped being a child, cuz I still do pretty much everything I did when I was 10. lol

    I watch cartoons, I play with toys (mostly Lego) and video games, I blow dandelions, I do the hand out the window thing in a car, I’ll dress up like a ninja and prowl around in the dark, etc.

    Edit: Reading this a second time, makes it sound like I am Charlie from It’s Always Sunny…

    47 and I still try to get out to a skatepark at least twice a week.

    No idea how long I’m going to be able to do it, but I’m going to make every session count.

      You’d be amazed. You’ll probably be doing it up to 60, as long as you don’t injur yourself.

        So, as long as I don’t don’t injure myself… in 37 years of skating…

        Are there any other options I could consider? Cause that ship sailed a long time ago :)

        Honestly though, while its forced me to change my style of skating, I enjoy it as much now as I ever have. Learning new tricks, getting a solid whole body work out, meeting and hanging out with new people, it’s all still there.
