adultism

Noun. A disease that causes otherwise fun people to start acting like adults. This means they no longer go out and drink until they black out, stop having casual sex, and stop buying shoes and purses. There is no cure for Adultism.

Sally used to be so much fun, what happened?
She caught Adultism.
OMG, no wonder she's so boring!
