We should have trusted Peter Pan when he said, "Never grow up." Growing up is a trap. That's what it is. Once one becomes an adult, some often unpleasant things become inevitable. Spending most of the time working and having little time for yourself and your family, living paycheck to paycheck; these are just some common adulting problems. And while we could grumble about all the dreary things that come with adulthood, we could also ignore them for a while and look at the funny side of things. Those are adult problems that (spoiler alert) are not, in fact, actual problems, or at least not something to worry about.

The Facebook page Adult Problems does precisely that. The page's content is all about sharing First World problems and silly problems adults face daily. Funny jokes for adults, self-deprecating humor, and sometimes actual problems adults encounter that many can relate to is what the posts featured on this page are about. In fact, being an adult is very much about knowing the difference between actual and trivial problems that can be laughed about and not taken seriously. 

Hence, to chuckle about the latter, we compiled the adult version of the First World problems list, which is pretty much just a compilation of funny jokes about being an adult. Saw a First World problem you can relate to? Make sure to give it an upvote. Also, what are some adult problems that you face regularly? Share them in the comments!

    Another subject desperately needed in school. Basic working skills, how to search for and apply for a job in our time.

    Nor is it the responsibility of anyone else to supply the things you can't afford. Teach your kids about the cost of living and give them your time and attention instead.

    Sad result here, however, I've called and hired people months later after the initial candidate flamed out. It can happen!

    i desire a house with every single space saving appliances and secret rooms possible,but unfortunately that stuff is too expensive to even have more than one purchased to afford to live that month due to bills, rent, taxes, and paid healthcare

    If Elf on the Shelf had existed back when I was a kid, that snitch would have been iced on the first day.

    In economically challenged times, there is NO better weapon to ease your hunger than being able to convert low cost raw ingredients into a meal. Become self sufficient - know how to cook!

    Exactly! People say “well if they don’t pay enough or value you, don’t work there, duh 🙄” but when people start standing up for themselves and refusing to work for s**t conditions it’s “nobody wants to work anymore, you’re all lazy.” We’re trying to change things here!

    I was hoping my dad would get me in the Christmas gift exchange this year so he would get me a duplicate car key.
