Anyone who's still living at home five years out of high school (that's a fair amount of time to complete a college degree and become gainfully employed) is either a coward or a lazy SOB.
I'm living with my mom because she has terminal cancer and needs someone around to help her out. Which am I: a coward, or a lazy SOB? Can I drop whichever of the two titles applies to me if I go to my mom today and tell her that it's time for me to get my own place?
