Turns Out, There’s A Facebook Page With 390K Followers Called ‘Adult Problems’, And Here Are 50 Of Their Best Posts
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!

In that case any child of mine were going to be spoiled entitled brats, I believe.
I just started adding a criminal amount of exclamation marks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh hell no the remote belongs to me now. Will add to my collection of remotes for things I do not have nor will ever.
Mine was thinking that someday I'd be able to sleep in anytime I want.
Another subject desperately needed in school. Basic working skills, how to search for and apply for a job in our time.
Stop penalizing kids (and adults) for missing school or work because of illness or family emergency.
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.
then we shall join together, i have been working on a size changer,and i shall become your giant mount to ride into battle!
Sad result here, however, I've called and hired people months later after the initial candidate flamed out. It can happen!
Imagine if we find a different world and all of BP signed up to go there. Such a nice life.
Do you feel like putting it together and making something? I can't, the couch won't let me get up..
Pissing people off as well. Control your damned crotch fruit you asshats!
I DON'T WANNA TURN 18 ANYMORE!!! WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
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
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 dont understand the whole work wife/husband....is this a regional thing.... is it supposed to be cute? So many questions.
I use to do this. I liked it better. It's not just the time spent at work. It's also the time spent getting ready which includes enough sleep, clean clothes, bathing, time driving there and so on.
I can show you a tour of my home planet. Hedgehog planet have 50 hours a day, and guess what? We work eight hours and that’s it, the rest is for chillaxing. It sucks to be on Earth. I wanna go home if it’s not for this stupid experiment… oops. I shouldn’t have written that. No more internet for me today.
Saturdays are cleaning and grocery days. If I am lucky sunday is my weekend.
At closing time!!! Bruh I got s**t to do 20mins of overtime ain't worth it please leave..
who are still attempting to murder each other as "generic sword fighter" or a f*****g robot who can become a procedural beyblade of death
usually, you don't. in 47 years of working, i have exactly 4 former co-workers that i'm still friends with and still see on occasion.
I swear some people never studied for the driver's test or even glanced at the book. EVERY. DAY. I encounter someone at a 4-way, who THEY got there 1st, and are to my right, so they should got 1st. Nope, they'll sit there and then wave me through.
Just happened to me and it is not fun. Fell off a ladder with a cabinet in my hands, went to hospital said I was ok, had two days off and was NOT OK, turns out I now have COVID so more days off and clients that are not happy.
Yeah but my friends respect my mom a lot more than my “silly outlook calendar” 😅
Even when you wake up, your mind’s on work. Get home, eat dinner, do chores and you only have an hour to yourself. Depression sets in pretty quickly there. But if you try to bring it up, “oh kids these days are so lazy!”
My partner just turned 60 but is young for his age. His working week is 40 hours over 4 nights. He regularly does 5 or 6 nights if the giant worldwide internet based supplier of any item you wish to purchase needs extra staff. He walks over 20,000 steps per night so it’s keeping him fit but sleeps most of the day and we can’t enjoy the extra money the overtime pays because he’s at work at night and I work during the day. It’s all going into savings and huge gas and electricity bills!
Wow. So much toxicity in such a short statement. There are more things wrong with this than there are words in the sentence.
Worked at a fiberoptic plant that did this. Tell em you're quitting and security walks you out on the spot.
I literally had my sister call me a liar when I told her I had to work Christmas Eve and Day then again New Year's Eve and Day.
January 9th? Did the week after New Year’s used to be a magical time I missed out on? 😅
The generational ageism on the internet is exhausting. I'm a Gen X member and am so tired of these boomers vs millenials arguments. it's lazy.
Free groceries, definitely. The left over money will be invested in a maid, so also no more cleaning. I like to cook and doong laundry is ok.
Load More Replies... Gotta choose the free groceries for life.. with all the money I save, I can hire a cook and cleaner and I'll sleep better at night not worrying about those things.
That is evil. I want to with free groceries, but decades of insomnia is making me go with sleep.
Did you know we're supposed to sleep in two shifts, with a few hours (of non-screen time) in between?
Load More Replies... 
Free groceries! I love to cook, I do most of the cleaning and wash anyway and I average about 6 to 7 hrs a night. One or two more if Jameson is involved.
Never having to.cook. I would eat so much better if I didn't have to cook. Its the most boring thing to have to do around the house.
Standard child benefits are 1-3. 4 is possible with medication. 5 is your best option.
Groceries, hands down. I don't mind cleaning or doing laundry. I don't like cooking, but that's what the InstantPot is for. And I sleep just fine now that my meds are correct. But groceries are stupid expensive.
Sleep! Sleep! Sleep! If I could always get enough sleep, I could handle everything else!
Sleep. I'm an insomniac and I've very literally never had eight hours of uninterrupted sleep that I can recall in my life.
Did you know we're supposed to sleep in two shifts, with a few hours (of non-screen time) in between?
Load More Replies... Ooooh s**t... I hate laundry... I also hate cooking... and I'm not a good sleeper... I don't like grocery shopping, either...
Hmmm..... if clothes are on the floor then do they get washed by default because of house cleaning itself? If not then 4 all the way; I can't remember the last time I slept uninterrupted, nevermind 8 hours. I'd kill for proper good sleep every day but that must include no body pains from sleeping so long without switching positions
If my house cleaned itself, I'd have more time to cook, wash clothes, and sleep.
for anyone who's also wondering: the little pipe in the big pipe is sucking air while fuel is pumped. When it can't suck air any more (because the fuel level touches the nozzle), it makes a springloaded ball drop inside that closes the valve.
My mom's a nurse. There were times growing up where we didn't see each other for an entire week even though we lived in the same house. When she worked night shift we never saw her. It's sad. She missed out on so much with us growing up and she's a single mom.
Adult equivalent is opening the fridge to stare inside to see if anything changed in the past hour.
My husband works in a restaurant. That means he works weekends. Period. It also means that the time he's scheduled to be off is approximate, not definite. In our almost 8 years of marriage, the number of times I've had to explain this to his buddy and his dad is stupid 🤦♀️
I have that guy. The radio was on today and he asked me if I remembered anything I did in 1995. I have a stupidly good memory but it was a big year for me as I graduated Uni, spent part of my summer in Greece then celebrated my 21st birthday. He started laughing and said he was still in high school with a few years to go. Then as he was leaving he wished me a merry Christmas as I won’t see him again until afterwards. Told him not to worry as even though I am on annual leave for most of the next 2 weeks I am still going to phone him every day, even on the weekends.
Stuffing. My mother's sausage meat stuffing. Not stuffed, cooked in a separate dish. We fight over that
My friend got this worse. Her birthday was on Christmas, and it kinda sucked for everyone to go up to her and yell, ‘Hey girl, this random thing is the gift for your birthday, Christmas, and by the way Happy New Year ‘cuz you’re not getting anything new too!’ Which is why I am always deprived of money every Christmas to take her to eat cupcakes and birthday/Christmas stuff.
And for Pete's sake keep track if how many times your grandma had a funeral.
Her: "I love you!" Me: That's a terrible idea!" And that's when the fight started...
