> Look at all the "adult" men today, especially in America for some reason, whose desks are littered with action figures and whose offices contain a shrine to comic book superheros and Star Wars/Trek that would put the Sistine Chapel to shame.
Eh. I've adulted plenty, sir. I've started companies, I'm the father of 3 boys, and now I run a program at a nonprofit and I'm responsible for the safety and well-being of a lot of youth.
But I still like watching Mobile Suit Gundam, building plastic models, and playing SNES games on my MiSTer. And that's OK: maybe you don't find meaning in it and maybe you view it as childish. But I find enjoyment in these simple things and don't need to eviscerate them to prove how grown up I am.
(And now and then, my boys catch enthusiasm for these things, and we can experience them together which is really awesome, too).
