i live in never-never land...

i'm not entirely sure why this happens, but there seems to be a ridiculous phenomenon that occurs in college: people actually LOSE maturity and intelligence...i don't know if it's because some people don't have their mothers around to tell them "you know, i'm not sure that's really a good idea" anymore, but they start to act like toddlers, and age becomes hopelessly irrelevant..for example, the brilliant ones that feel like, since the law says cars are to yield to pedestrians, they are allowed to randomly run out into the middle of the road to cross the street (never mind that the crosswalk is less than 50 yards away), and that cars will magically stop for them...HELLO people, i'm not a magician when i drive..if i can't see you until i'm less than 3 feet away from you, my car will win (ending with you in the hospital)..then there's the activities that young people decide to participate in..for example, pillow fights and blanket forts...what, did we not ever leave the 3rd grade?
and then, my favorite thing is when you pair an extremely childish male with an equally childish female, and the whole level of child-like behavior is taken to a mind-numbing, brain-cell-killing level...without exception, these amazing relationship specimens immediately revert to baby talk..for example, "ohhh baby..wemme see what happened to your eensy weensy wittle toe..does i need to kiss it bettew?" it's all i can do to be in the same room with these people without vomiting..i would be much more happy if peter pan came and took these people to the place where they actually belong..the problem then becomes repopulating provo...
