Growing Up From Well-Behaved to Creepy

9 yo You are such a well behaved kid 17 yo You are really mature for your age. 23 yo He is a bit boring. 30 yo That guy over there is really creepy.

A four-panel stick-figure comic shows how a person’s social perception changes at ages 9, 17, 23, and 30. As the character grows older, praise for being well behaved and mature turns into being called boring and then creepy. It is used as a humorous reaction to aging, changing personalities, or realizing that ordinary behavior can look suspicious later in life.
