[new] I Invented the Term KIDULT in 1980... (Avg. Score: none / Raters: 0) (#8)

FYI...

Search on the word "Kidult" in Google. See what you find. Guess what? I invented that term in 1980 to describe a new kind of big-kid-hybrid-adult that I saw evidence of all around me. I found that this type of person was emerging way back in 1980 and I shared that concept (and the "Kidult" term) with literally thousands of people throughout the course of the early 80's. That term is now used by nearly every big advertising company in the world - they use it describe exactly that type of person - the big-kid-hybrid-adult (usually male).

Did I copyright the term for some kind of "proof"? No, I didn't. I don't really need proof. I'm not interested in claiming the rights to any of the things that come to me intuitively. While it might be nice to get some royalties on some of this stuff, I'm already very well paid from my "normal" work as a Systems Analyst and IT Project Manager.
