post-adolescence 

the time in life when you awake from adolescence. usualy about the age of 19 to 25. you may still have a headache from your teenage kicks of the past, but in whole you are pretty lucky to become a real man or woman. its maybe the coolest time because you realize that you now are a twenty-something (a sexmachine in a cool outfit) and the opposite of a teenager (a whimpy wannabe).
common changes: better taste in music, better clothes, better sex, going to college or earn own money, less acne, less teenage angst and coming to the conclusion that those realy popular kids who bullied around in highschool are going to be the ones with the most boring/fucked up life.
as long as you are in highschool you can't see that there is a life after this twilight zone... but hell yeah there is! wait until your post-adolescence

A kick ass rock band from Seattle.

Artist Bio
Post Adolescence was formed in‭ ‬2006‭ ‬by lead-singer/guitarist Johnny Straube,‭ ‬bassist Gar Hooker,‭ ‬and drummer Brian McCrossen.‭ ‬Drawing‭ ‬mainly on British influences,‭ ‬Post Adolescence‭ ‬integrates the‭ ‬the crunch of‭ ‬Manic Street Preachers and Placebo,‭ the glamour of ‬T.‭ ‬Rex and David Bowie,‭ ‬and the raw sound‭ ‬of‭ ‬The Clash and Buzzcocks.

The band‭ ‬has just released their debut album‭ "‬My Nothing,‭" ‬and have played shows at both of Seattle‭’‬s‭ ‬Showbox stages to help promote it.‭ ‬Recorded at Seattle‭’‬s London Bridge Studios and mastered by Barry Corliss of Master Works,‭ "‬My Nothing‭" ‬features introspective lyrics of heartbreak and loss,‭ ‬balanced with up-beat pop anthems.

Recently added to the line-up are Mark Clem and Adrian Garver,‭ ‬who trade off on guitars and keyboards.‭ ‬They have provided a springboard for the band to bring a fresh but familiar sound to new songs in the works.
Post Adolescence members are Johnny Straube - Guitar, Vocals / Gar Hooker - Bass, Vocals / Brian McCrossen - Drums / Mark Clem - Guitar, Keys, Vocals / Adrian Garver - Guitar, Keys

Management: Lisa McLernon (UK/Europe) - lisa.mclernon@live.co.uk

Post-Adolescent Idealistic Phase 

A person who just graduated high school/college student who tries to act like an adult, but still behaves like a high-schooler. They usually tend to use large words, pretending to have a large vocabulary because they think that it makes them look smart and impressive. Tend to think they know everything. (hint-the whole cast of "Real World")

Post-Adolescent Idealistic Phase 

The time after the pointless teen years in which a young person develops what are called "standards" and "morals." It is a time in which eyes are opened and "The Truth" suddenly becomes clear.

Usually beginning when one enters college, said young person reads deep literature, searches for the meaning of life, and listens to college radio, all the while secretly becoming even more confused than when he/she was an lame 16 year old.

The Post-Adolescent Idealistic Phase usually entails naive 18-20something year olds upholding hopeful, yet unrealistic morals. Often, utopian dreams can be confused for "The Truth."

After the phase has ended, the young person must beware becoming highly hypocritical and/or jaded once life has slapped them around a bit.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
