And now a bow in the direction of slightly immature...

I was born in the year of the monkey and supposedly embody several ... attributes characteristic of monkeys. Here are a few ...with parenthetical rewording from my peanut gallery:
bright ( ingenuously and annoyingly curious )
verbal ( a pit bull with an exquisite vocabulary)
creative ( tenacious )
tempermental ( cranky ( ! ) )
and here's my favourite..... slightly immature.

so I thought, what the hell.... let's do a little of that... here are some examples of how to embody slightly immature without even trying...

-actively cultivating downward social mobility
-actively cultivating being underestimated
-going to a meeting ostensibly because I want to but mostly because it will irritate the hell out of someone there who wishes I wasn't attending
-being gracious rather than defensive ( the four most annoying words I can use in a volatile situation: you might be right)
-deliberating saying a a person's name frequently during an officious phone call or face to face conversation
-using the 3-5-7 second pause in a " conversation " ... just to make sure I have not spoken until the other person is finished speaking
-telling the person I just wanted to be sure he was finished speaking when he says " well!? " after a 3-5-7 second pause.... ( this one is remarkably effective, by the way...)
-saying just loudly enough on a crowded elevator " who's the pervert who's feeling my ass? "
-groaning dramatically in the bathroom ( make sure the stall door is securely shut... )

and why should I have all the fun? please, join me in this little exercise in silliness.... be a monkey even if you're not.... and if you are, do what comes naturally...
