When you think about it, why do we so often associate adulthood with wisdom and maturity, yet find grown men delighting in childlike antics at every turn? It’s a scientific fact that men tend to die in more foolish ways, with studies suggesting it’s due to risk-taking behaviors. But I have my own theory—adulthood is, for many men, merely an elaborate charade masking their inner ten-year-olds! I mean, have you seen how they morph into excited kids the moment a new Star Wars movie hits the big screen? It’s hilarious, endearing, and oh-so-telling. Dive into the world of immaturity disguised as masculinity and revel in the photographic evidence that these adult boys never truly outgrow their love for sugary snacks, gaming, and the fine art of annoying their partners. Buckle up, folks; this is one fun ride! LEARN MORE.
Look. It’s a scientific fact that men are more stupid than women. A twenty-year study showed that 90% of the time, men die in more idiotic ways. Scientists say it’s because of risk-taking behaviors, but I’m willing to bet it’s because men just never grow up.
I’m not here to judge, but I’ve seen grown men revert to their ten-year-old state whenever a new Star Wars film comes out. These photos are hard evidence that men never actually grow up, and we love them for it.
Anyone that’s ever let the man in their life do the grocery shopping knows that “snacks” is an entire food group for them. One time I came home to a cupboard full of Little Debbie snack cakes for absolutely no reason.
This guy has taken his snack food to the next level by pairing it with a button up shirt, so it seems a little more grown up.

Men pass gas 24/7 and have no shame about it. Seriously, it must be some sort of weird evolutionary trait men still have. Maybe it’s a way to mark their territory, or leave their scent, or attract a mate.
