Yes, we’re grown-ups now. Many of us are in our 30s. You can’t adult today? You’re proud because you adulted earlier? Are you capable of an original thought? Are you looking for a pat on the back because you went grocery shopping and bought vegetables? Do you think everyone within ear shot gives a fuck that you paid your bills on time or can’t function like a human being without drinking coffee? Ironically, saying that you “adulted” or are “adulting” or that you can’t “adult” is the most juvenile, asinine, thing on the planet. Second only to Donald Trump. —This. 100% this. THIS. TTTTHHHIISIISSSS amirite guys? ami ami?

get over yourself
If this is what you have to “bitch” about… I sort of feel sorry for the lack of life you must have. People use slang, young adults still feel wildly under prepared for life as an adult because one of the things they NEVER taught us growing up was that no one is ever fully prepared or has all the answers, you just learn to fake having it all together better and better. So, yeah, sometimes we act a bit juvenile and use terms like “adulting” and feel accomplished when we manage what seems like a mundane “adult” task when every other attempt at doing so lately has failed spectacularly. Get over it. Now, if you’ll excuse me… I have some adulting to do.
It is kinda amazing & Trump probably isn’t #1
