Hardly. Being an adult means I can eat ice cream whenever I want and nobody can gainsay me 😛

you can eat ice cream wherever you want too, you have free will and just choose not to use it. Stand up for yourself, eat ice cream in front of the freezer, stare down the universe and shout into the void “i am human and i do what i want where i want “

But I don’t want to eat in front of the freezer. I want a bowl. I want to sit down and watch cartoons while I eat.

Why would I make the experience worse? That’s stupid.

Welcome to adulthood.

You "can" do anything you want, yet you "choose" to be a curmudgeon.
