redambrosia Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Well, assuming my parents didn't chase me out of the house thinking I was an evil stranger, I'd probably do what a normal 5 year old would do... play. I mean, even at 5 I knew I needed money to do all the fun things adults did, and I'd had no idea how to get money, so it would probably be safest to stay home and try to figure the whole thing out. I think it'd be a lot more fun to suddenly be a 5 year old, but with all my memories intact. (Assuming my hubby got the same "curse") Oh, and I'd probably spend a week figuring out the whole sudden tallness thing. I mean, I can barely operate my body as is. Sudden growth would be a disaster. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Jack Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) Probably steal all the money in my mother's purse and go down to the corner store to spend it all on candy. Or just get into a fight with my parents about how now that I'm big I get to decide what we watch on television and what I eat for dinner... That's assuming I was five. If I was more like ten... Yeah, like I'm gonna give away my evil plans on a public forum.... Edited January 25, 2018 by Mad Jack 2 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would be the 1st thing you do? I don't know. Freak out probably. Then probably do whatever I did when I was five. Waking up and being an adult without any idea what I'm supposed to be doing would be frightening. Sure, there are fun things an adult can do that a five year-old can't, but most of those require education or money, which I presumably wouldn't have. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would be the 1st thing you do? I suppose after the initial shock, the first activity I would do would be seeing a cool restricted film in the theatre. Or perhaps I would just walk around downtown. That's pretty much what kids think adults do, right? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan 24th, Today is HUMP Day! And for a reason... I associate it with Tacos. Even though it is not Tuesday, and tacos are for Tuesday. Do you have any food you associate with a particular day of the week? (Especially hump day.) If so why? I eat what I want when I want. Well in theory anyhow. No special days for certain meals except the traditional holiday stuff. 14 hours ago, Thes Hunter said: Jan 25th.

What would be the 1st thing you do? I honestly have no clue. The only thing I can remember from being 5 is what our kindergarten classroom looked like. I have no idea what I thought about back then as tv was limited, home computers non existant and I hadn't even heard of any of the stuff I enjoy now. I was never in a rush to grow up. I was a relatively serious kid but enjoyed being a kid and knew it wouldn't last. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would be the 1st thing you do? Tear out of the horribly undersized clothes that I'd be wearing. I mean, I feel constricted just from wearing stuff that I'd bought about 10 years ago, so waking up to find myself squeezed into something from back when I was 5 would be awful. 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jokemeister Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I wonder if tomorrows question will be "What would be the 1st thing you do if you were 10 years old yesterday?" 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
