Being an adult means knowing that doing ridiculous things isn't what makes you an adult.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-19 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."

- CS Lewis

wonder what this says about you, anon.

C. S. Lewis was talking about how taste in literature shouldn't have to change with age, not about acting out like a complete tool in public.

I think that quote is saying exactly the same thing being discussed about Miley Cyrus. She is trying too hard to act "adult" with her sometimes tasteless antics, and as a result makes herself seem immature.
