an adult 

An adult is when you're an, uh, well it's when you think you're a big boy, but really you're just a child in grown person's body and you hate your job and the other person that lives in your house.

"I hate my life, I want to die," says an adult.

An adult diaper kind of night 

A phrase used when emphasizing the commitment to the grind, so committed you have no time for even subtle bowel movements. The phrase can also be used when describing how a rather uncooperative food or drink might unsettle the stomach to the point of a bowel movement within the pants

Brad: yo you trying to grab some tequila shots before the game?

Chad: eh man idk, it’s looking like an adult diaper kind of night

Jenna: I got a 5 page paper due at 8am and I haven’t even started, it’s looking like an adult diaper kind of night.

An Adult Man

You're an adult CHRISTIAN man. You are LITERALLY taking the word of anyone in a white robe. A Catholic too. So literally any old man an a white robe. And you only HOPE... That that white robe isn't wiping an alter-boy's shit off of his dick as he walks up to a podium to tell you not to talk about Hym. Just a little brown stain that lines up right with his crotch in the inside of his robe. You are taking his word for it. And that's what you're doing here. You are taking the word on the guy validating your incest cult.

Hym "An adult man. What evidence do I need to prove to you that God is real? Fucking none. For you to appeal to a material burden of proof is insane! Ooooh man. Super evasive. Tried to jive talk his way out of the question 4 times and then he make up a story. That seem like the Christian gambit. Avoid the question. Make up a story. It what you're doing to me. It's what you just did just there in front of everyone."

An Adult conversation

I don't see how I'm not being the adult here.

Hym "I don't think you want to have an adult conversation. I think you want to sit me down as though you are the principal of my high-school or my shrink and you want to walk me though the shit I said that you don't like but we would be doing that for YOU to feel better about it and you don't need to feel better about it as a prerequisite for ME getting what to which I HAVE A RIGHT. You don't need to feel good about it. I do not need to assuage your cognitive dissonance.

'Yes Hym. They are harassing you. Yes Hym. It resemble the delusions of reference commonly associated with schizophrenia and NO that is not your mind. It IS a problem that people are doing that to people. We are going to go investigate that and make sure we aren't misdiagnosing people with schizophrenia and causing mass murders because that NOT YOUR JOB. Yes Hym. Your dissertation did contribute to the current model of artificial intelligence. Here is your your royalty check. This is Dr. Shit-for-brains. He is going to test you for neurocystcerosis because if you were right and you were losing a lot of weight and experiencing prurtitus and you were right about having worms 7 years ago and the doctor to whom you went overlooked it, it could have progressed into neurocystcerosis. And we are going to check that white build-up on your gum above the tooth with a hole in it because your filling crumbled out years ago because we can't give you an anti-inflamatory for your brain-cysts if you have an infection.' THAT is what YOU being an adult looks like. That is what an adult conversation looks like for you. YOU being an adult does not look like 'BuT yOu SaId ThIs! BuT yOu SaId ThAt! BuT wHaT aBoUt ThE tHiNg YoU sAiD!?' That is you being a pedantic child while I die."
