I think I made up this phrase, not sure if it already existed.
When you 'Benjamin Button,' you move backward in life or participate in something that one views as a digression or immature.
Here are some examples:
"He was an investment banker, but was recently laid off. Now he mows lawns for cash. Ya, he really Benjamin Buttoned."
"This weekend, I'm going to the comic book store, grab a few lunchables, and try and get through the entire Freaks and Geeks series. You know, really get all Benjamin Buttoned."
"My bro and his wife just bought season tickets to the Bears. They also wear their jerseys every weekend, have a cooler that looks like a football, and refers to the team as 'we.'
I am not watching the game with those Benjamin Buttons."
And that's how it works. Use it.
