As an adult, what seemingly childish things do you get excited about?
I love bridges. If I see a cool looking bridge, I want to cross it, especially if it goes somewhere that I’m not familiar with. Same with stairs outdoors. They feel like an adventure to me.
Plush toys. Just bought a Spyro one and I’m waiting for production to start on the Apollo ones (if you’re wondering, yeah, the one of the iOS app’s mascot)
I like motorcycles. All motorcycles. Small, large, any brand from Aprilia to Zero. I like the way they sound, whether it’s a little two stroke Vespa or a ratty old Shovelhead or a six-cylinder Goldwing. They’re just so cool. And there are so many different engine configurations. Singles, parallel twins with 360, 270, or 180 degree cranks, V-Twins in several different angles and different crank splits, three bangers, four cylinders, even some with inline six or flat six engines. Just an entire mechanical symphony.
I like quiet bikes. I like loud bikes. I like electric bikes. Quiet ADV bikes, thundering cruisers, thumpy dual sports, screamy sport bikes, they’re all so cool.
Dogs are a big one, I can be furious while stuck in city traffic and then see a dog and I’m happy for a minute. Also those pajamas that have the feet covered and everything. Also cartoons and video games but I feel like those are more acceptable adult things nowadays
Lightning. I’ll leave my house every time to watch a storm for as long as it keeps up. It feels like the weather in my area has changed in the last 20 years so we don’t get as many, but I love storms.
