adults should have merit badges

that's right. you heard me correctly. I think adults should have merit badges. something that you can use to show off your accomplishments or something that can be used to display your shortcomings. beat mario world? here's a merit badge. saved a life today? here's a merit badge. choked on a chicken wing? here's a merit badge. why should boy scouts and girl scouts have all the fun? also, merit badges can be a great source for conversation. say you're out on a first day with a girl and you don't know what to talk about. take a look at the merit badge. does she have any that look like the ones you have? talk about that. also, merit badges can be used as a warning device. if you see a guy with a merit badge that looks like someone stabbing someone else, you might want to avoid him. these are just a couple of the reasons that just popped off the top of my head. I'm sure there's a plethora more so join me in the merit badge revolution. demand merit badges!
