Differences between being an adult and being a child: Spending a Saturday at the library for non-academic purposes
child: expects to be mocked by peers if they found out that s/he spent a Saturday at the library for non-academic purposes
adult: is probably there with several like-minded friends. Peers are too busy with mowing their lawns or doing children's science fair projects to notice Adult You. And if someone does mock you for spending your Saturday in the library, you're enough of an adult that you can just say, "well, just [bleep] all y'all" and go back to taking advantage of the library's free WiFi and $1 Keurig coffee while reading The American Way of Death, Revisited.
Also, watching the complete fourth season of The Simpsons is like visiting a childhood friend that you haven't seen in years.

There's no place quite like a library, is there? They just make you feel so good and rejuvenated :-)
