NERF Guns/Age limit

[Stikibunn]

Don't listen to the people here. You are talking to Gamers, many of which watch a show about talking ponies learning lessons about friendship or whatever.

In other words, you are asking the wrong people.

It's because it's immature, it's really that simple. Is something inherently wrong about you playing with Nerf Guns? No. Is it immature? Yes. That is the answer to your question and I'm pretty sure you know full well that is the case. It's because when you are a adult or close to being one, people expect you to be less giddy about the idea of shooting foam darts around. Kind of like how everyone eventually expected you to get rid of your Power Ranger PJs.

Even simpler: Because you are acting like a child when you shouldn't.

Now, before someone takes this the wrong way. I personally don't care what you do, but if you really need someone to shove what should be obvious into your face, well I can't just let you stay ignorant, now can I? If you don't want such a socially awkward situation (which is because YOU are being awkward) then order online, problem solved.

No. Just no. I disagree with you almost entirely.
YES people would say that enjoying toys IS immature.... but you know what? The kind of person who would give someone a judging look like that is also immature.
Becoming an adult isn't always about throwing away things that still interest you because they are "immature" deciding you are no longer going to become excited about something is in itself a sign of immaturity, a thing that happens during the latter stages of adolescence when the desire to be grown up already is paramount.

For example
I enjoy Thomas the Tank engine, or at least the pre-Hitt Entertainment episodes. Thomas is aimed at 4 year olds, yet as a grown adult who is a train buff I have learned to look at the children's stories in a new light. I don't see it in the same way as when I was 3 but I still enjoy it (Although secretly. I don't go telling folks I love it!)

Once you grow up and mature you learn to realise that being grown up doesn't mean you have to be your parents. Yes you MIGHT grow out of certain things, I for one don't like playing pretend as much as I used to for example, but that doesn't mean you should stop doing something because you are embarrassed by still liking it.
