Maybe this is the reason I get along so well with my junior high age grandson. Beneath the middle-aged grandma exterior, I’m really a 12 year old boy. 😛 ---

I thought the true test of maturity was the ability to hear the Lone Ranger song without thinking of William Tell? 😕:)😃 ---

I took it upon myself to improve the sign with my own white paint pen to read "Don't Stop Believing". Much better. ``` ---

There’s a residential street on Hatteras Island called Bartlick street adjacent to where a buddy of mine’s family had a place near the beach. Upon commencing drunken revelry, we decided a little duct tape would cover part of the “B” to change it to an “F”. We still laugh about that. And we were in our late 20’s/early 30’s when we did it. ---

> [@Mahaloth](#): > > That’s what I saw. I still think I’m too mature to giggle over it. What’s wrong with me? Well remember when you were a small child and your parents told you not to make faces or else it’ll “stick” that way? Well apparently yours got stuck in a frowny face and now you can’t have any fun. 😃 ---

How 'bout we post our real ages, too (or thereabouts for people who are a bit self conscious). Anyways, I’m 24, and I didn’t get it. I’d figured “cass” was some sort of sexual term I’d never heard of. But, then again, I didn’t get that [Malaysian Burger King ad](http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l140/highmaintainence_chic/BKsevenincher.jpg), either ---

I chuckled. Does that count? I was cut off recently by a driver whose number plate prefix was ANI. I wish I’d have been able to catch up with him to let him know his car told the world he (and his passengers) were arseholes. I don’t think he’d have got it. ---

I passed this little maturity test, but a few years back I laughed so hard I had to sit down on the sidewalk when I passed a church with a sign saying something like “ENTER IN THE REAR”. I might claim that I’ve matured a lot in the years that have passed, but I’m chuckling a bit just typing this so I don’t think so. 😃 ---

The OP in NOT imature. If he were, he would have taken a green marker and colored in the C’s. Bart Simpson does not approve. ---

> [@Rigamarole](#): > > I guess if you ignore the "C"s you can read ASS and ANAL, but it’s not very funny. Not because I’m mature, but because it’s a bit of a stretch - like laughing at the word “assassin” because it has two "ass"es in it. Big deal.

I must be mature because I didn’t laugh. However, every time I drive past the sign for a road near my home I think of the Dope. The street: Glascock. I think I’ve read one too many “maturity test” threads over the years. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/maturity-test/503292.md?page=1)
