By “younger”, I thought they meant childhood, not… fifteen.

Bro the teens are when you are most cringe. That's where the real juicy stories are.

[–] Wanderer@lemm.ee 10 points 3 months ago

Any younger and you largely dgaf.

When you hit teens there something in you that starts making you want look cool to girls. That's the most important thing in the world.

Too young to drink drive and vote, old enough to be a parent and to soon enlist in the army

[–] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 17 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yep, and 18 is still pretty young.

[–] taladar@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 months ago

25 is still pretty young too and some of the cringiest behavior is people at that age acting as if they were still 17 (though not as bad as 45 year olds acting like they are 25 or 60+ year olds acting as if they were in the single digit ages).

15 is one of the criengiest time

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Yeah, 13-15 for me. Although I've spent all my teen years behind a computer and didn't socialize at all, so I was pretty weird overall. Well, I still am, but at least I can at least talk with strangers with no issues, although I still get nervous very rarely and talk nonsense.

You are 100% a child when you're 15 lol I know I coach 15 year olds every day

[–] node_user@feddit.uk 24 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It is childhood. No bills, no rent, no work, no responsibilities....

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

I still prefer my adulthood, because at least I am no longer bullied, I am not forced to do bullshit homework, and I don't need to learn stuff that I won't ever need in my life, but instead I can focus on learning stuff that either I am deeply interested in or has any practical use in real life.

Younger is just a comparative form. It doesn't imply a particular period of one's life.

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

I mean... fifteen is still childhood, isn't it?
