when i found out i had horrible credit (well no credit really) applying for my car after my old car broke down and my parents wouldnt help me buy a car and kicked me off the insurance. oh well guess thats where well off grandparents come into cosign the loan. to bad they wont pay for anything for me :P
 
^That sucks. I hope things work out in the end. Though I have a feeling you have history on your insurance to warrant your parents to kick you off. Unless they hate you (I think my parents do...)
 
Why do threads like this get started and then said starter doesn't post an answer to their own question?

Presumably when I found out my wife was pregnant and I had to grow up. Actually, now that the kids are getting cooler toys, I think I've regressed a bit...

Is there an option for "I was a man, but now I'm not" that doesn't involve the loss of one's manhood? :lol:
 
You really don't but then again you do. You can be 29 and still act 19. Second Childhood or the 40yr old virgin.

@TB:
I know it was a movie. I'm just saying if it happened to someone in reality (I'm sure there are some out there).

yea every things kool got a car and all that but i think it was my parents way of trying to make me mature and help build my credit and start to get my insurance down. guess it was a good thing kinda seeing as they were kinda right. my first 6 months of insurance were $330 a mo for a '05 focus:scared: that was unreal all because im under 25 and a male:ouch:. thankfully it went down to about $220 a mo this time around.
 
One time, at age four, whilst in the shower..

No, when I started paying rent to live in my parents house and had to buy all my own food, pay my own bills, etc. I'm sure there's a more philosophical answer here somewhere, but I'm too tired to figure it out right now.
 
Boys will be boys. ;)

And another favorite of mine: the only difference between men and boys is the price of the toys. :)
 
When I first looked at the tax deduction on my wage slip. I almost cried.
 
Probably when some kid was being a pest and his mother came along and told him to "Leave that man alone" :scared:
 
I was born with a mustache..... :lol:

No seriously when kids started addressing me as Sir.
 
when i got my pubes....

Agreed but that makes me unable to vote, there is no option for under 18's, how discriminative:grumpy:.

:odd:


You're kidding me, right? It wouldn't surprise me if you are both under 15, and therefore do not qualify for being a man. If what you said is true, all of us would be men between 12 and 15.


Technically I am not a man yet either, being 17 and not had an experience or situation in which it required me to grow the hell up.

EDIT: one of you is 13, the other in 9th grade (from reading profiles). You have to understand, we are talking about proper life experiences here that made people realise they had more to do in this world. I guess 18 is the minimum age this can happen. See you in 5 years.

EDIT2: 6000th post :D

This thought indicates that you are not yet a man. So does the lack of capital letters, proper spelling, and punctuation.

I knew I was a man during the 18-25 bracket; specifically age 21, though not for legal reasons. It was after I graduated from college, which my parents had paid for and helped me through. I knew I was a man when I applied to/got into graduate schools, traveled to visit them, applied for/got tuition loans, found an apartment in a new city halfway across the country, and moved in with my fiancee - all on my own initiative without asking my parents for help or advice.

At that point I knew I could get a handle on this adulthood thing.

I'll know I'm a man when people don't look surprised when I tell them I'm 20 years old.
 
The day I punched my old man in the mouth and laid him out on the kitchen floor.

Before that he always took me down, but finally my balls dropped and I laid him out for once. Have the scar on my knuckle to prove it. Me and the old man have had an understanding ever since. 👍
