Paying bills. Constant exhaustion. Wondering what’s for dinner. An aching back. And that’s on a good day of adulting.
Seriously, it’s the worst, and here are 12 tweets that sum up why:
1. More like 7 to 14 years

8. Every night
When parents say to kids "go to ur room & think about what you've done" it's really good practice for what you'll do every night as an adult

10. Ugh, inflation
11. Also: turned my head, stood up too quickly…
Injuries as a kid:
fouled on a layup
fell off trampoline
pulled muscle running
Injuries as an adult:
slept wrong
sat too long
coughed

Adulthood is trying each of the same six passwords that you use for everything and complaining that you're tired.
