Or... never grow up, and live the glamorous life of Richard Stallman. Did you know he once got laid? Hard to believe. The guy looks like a bum, acts like a bum, talks like a bum, smells like a bum. Apparently he was lucky enough to wet his dick before he got old. Of course now nobody will touch him.

Yes, "grow up" by using the terms other people want you to use and how they want you to use them, even if they are misleading and/or propaganda.

Grow up means it's immature to not let megacorps abuse you like they desire?
Or does it just mean being a indifferent worker drone that is a good citizen and does what the TV tells them too?

It seems most people's definition of "maturity" includes being a complacent consumer whore who never rocks the boat and has no principles.
