Seriously, I think one or two of those apply to me. I don't think that says anything about my maturity level in dealing with others, or the way I come across, or how far I've developed from the time I was a teenager (or even from three years ago, or a year ago) simply because I don't let any of those things dominate my life. (Bars, stuffed animals, computer games, TVs, sci-fi, all that...those are present in my life, but a definite sub-class of the whole.)
Well, I'm with you on 5, 6, 8-10. #7 - the same (except I can't hide my TV). #4 - I have a couple for mindless entertainment and to help with puzzle solving. #3 is about 50/50. #2 - well, can't say I'm just into it for the art. #1 - does this mean you won't be my sugar daddy? :P
Oh, well, when you get as jaded and cynical as I, you tend to notice that the similarities overrun the differences: The same bartender serves the same liquor to the same bar-trolls. The only difference is the paint color, mode of dress, whether there's a backroom or not, and how much the cab fare is back home.
You're failing to recognize the details. There's a notable difference between The Eagle and Blakes here in Atlanta.
Blakes being where folks who like to pretend they have money hang out in, and the Eagle being where folks who like to pretend they are into leather and kink hang out in.
Never the twain shall meet!
What I find more fascinating are the amazing similarities between The Eagle in Atlanta and the Eagle in Vancouver, Montreal, San Francisco, Boston...etc.
Oh, you don't want to get me started on the subject of "folks who like to pretend they are into leather and kink..." I'll be on the warpath for days... (and not against the non-leather-and kink crowd, either!) and that won't be good when I'm supposed to be nice and charming for all the leather folks in D.C. this weekend. -- e.g. there are "leather and kink" folk here on LJ -- who belong to a little clique I privately (dis)affectionately refer to as the "rat pack" for their penchant to hang out in hotel lobbies (of events like IML and MAL) hanging all over each other like they're stoned out of their minds, and barely speak a word to other guys who are "outsiders" to their little group

"Grown-up" or "old fogey?" ;)

*shrug* To each their own. :)
