When we were children, adulthood seemed full of wonders, freedom, cake for dinner and the ability to drive. This is all very true, but growing up often means understanding that some of the real parts of adulthood are just enjoying the mundane, as incomprehensible as that might seem to younger folks.
We’ve gathered a collection of all the random hilarious and relatable things that people go through as adults. So get comfortable as you scroll, upvote your favorite posts and be sure to share your own thoughts in the comments below.

Its called 'Repurposing" and its good for the environment. Instead of throwing it in the trash you keep and reuse it. maybe to store stuff in maybe for the cat, maybe to send something to someone else. Its a great way to be 'green'.

But the problem is that we keep too many so then they just sit in a pile because we *might* find a use for them some day

At some point in time you will decide that you just don't care what you wear, whether or not you put on makeup, and yes, that music IS too loud for you to be able to see. So, from my point of view, it isn't all down hill, more like rolling hills, example: No more monthly cycle 🙂, you are now blessed with hot flashes, cold flashes, and the ever fun night sweats. You quit getting carded for alcohol, but you don't drink much because it can mess with your daily medications. You get to play with your grandcats, granddogs, and grandchildren and spoil them, but then they go home and you miss them. My advice, don't worry about the passage of time, each day is precious, be glad for what you have and send kindness into the world.

The only time the supermarkets near me rearrange, it's to move the gluten free stuff. They can't seem to decide whether to keep them with the health food, in their own section, or dispersed with everything else. Drives me crazy!
Amy S 1 year ago
Drives me crazy when they mix it in with everything else. I don't want to walk down the aisle of delicious looking bread to get to my sad little gluten free loaf. And I imagine regular bread buyers don't want a g-free one in the way because they're not going to buy it.

I just give my finger to stuff that goes wrong these days, litteraly giving the finger. Its a charm i learned from Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency 😅
C.S. Lewis famously wrote “When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.” As a kid, this might seem incomprehensible, since kid-stuff pales in comparison to the massive amount of options adults have.
Many people are hit with a sense of disappointment when they reach adulthood. Yeah, you are “free,” but now you have bills to pay, responsibilities, the dishes, the laundry and whatever other never-ending list of chores one has to deal with daily.

So annoying when you have to tip out a basket of clean clothes because you need it to take the next lot on/off the line! Not sure about the washing & drying times though. My machine the shortest 'time' listed is 44mins, but it always takes a lot longer than that and I dry on the line, so time depends on weather.

y'all clean? it takes so much energy and strength tho, idk how anyone does it with any regularity.
However, most folks will also discover the joys of adulthood. That freedom is still a wonderful feeling, something that you almost take for granted until, for example, you visit your parents house and start to remember all the rules that once dictated your life. There is nothing like coming home to your favorite stove top burner and putting away dishes your way.

I once left before a comedy show because the queue was too long and it was obvious we wouldn't get in in time. (We've already waited almost an hour before the queue even moved.) Friends thought I was crazy as we had bought the tickets in advance. I left and had burgers instead. Awesome burgers.

In my mind places can now have high ticket prices OR long lines. If I've paid a fortune to go somewhere, you better have hired enough staff to get me inside promptly. If you offer a premium queue jump service, only sell enough tickets that it doesn't form its own queue. $100+ theme park tickets with 3 hour queues to do what you came for? Hill no

It’s also pretty illuminating to start truly learning things yourself. Often this comes from experience, but it’s still useful. Young-adult-hood is about making mistakes and getting certain things “out of your system.” We might cringe at our younger selves, but it was a learning period at the end of the day.

Oh, and when I, as around 8 or 10 years of age, read about the tallest man in the world, Robert Pershing Wadlow, in the Guiness Book of Records, I didn't register that dying at age 22 was VERY young.

Worst injury I got was when the left handlebar slammed backwards and tried to take my thumb off. 6 weeks in a cast, and then 6 months of physical therapy to get it working again. Lost a little bit of range of motion, but otherwise no lasting effects. I was able to keep it a secret from my mom for over ten years. Then one day the subject of hand injuries came up, and my mouth said “when I broke my thumb” before my brain could catch up to it and redirect it.

Only true if you don't have your own kids. If you have kids, you start to realize the differences between the ages. So before I had kids, everyone who was 20 years younger the four older than me looked like they were the same age. Now that my kids are grown up I can give you approximate ages for kids I see on TV or out in the mall or whatever, but only up to the age of my eldest. If you are older than her but still 20 years or more younger than me, I just call you her age.

On Halloween, the neighbors on the other side came 'round with their two little kids. They're very nice people. However, my brain insists they're around 20 years old, maybe 24 MAXIMUM. I know logically that they're closer to my age (42) but they look younger and I cannot convince my brain that they've got to be at least in their 30s XD I also could not tell you how old their oldest child is.

I have a friend almost 60 who literally can have 15 people turning up at the door at any time. It was quite stressful living with him, he has so many, many friends and acquaintances who haven’t seemed to figure out polite phoning in advance. It was seriously several times per day. I on the other hand am only 30 but cower in fear when a door knocks at mine (almost always Amazon) I think this is much less to do with age, and more to do with extraversion/introversion. I swear, every time I speak on the phone with him, he’s got at least 4 randoms there. I figure that he opens his house to all the waifs and strays because he bought a huge house with his ex wife with a plan of a family, and feels that now he’s alone there, he should welcome people . Ironically, he’s a grumpy old shouty man, but has 50+ friends attending his birthdays. I don’t bother celebrating mine, I’ll get one or two happy birthdays but no visitors. What am I doing wrong?

Our brand new high school hosted teachers that were more interested in screwing each other (except for the Biology teacher who was more interested in screwing his students). The drama was invigorating, and the school closed down in 9 years. It turned into a vocational school, no idea what it is now. It was an "experiment" (only one other school in California was like it), and it failed miserably. Had everything a modern school could have, but was mis-managed from the start (the school board).

My mom used to nick them from department stores XD Or whenever she'd buy an article of clothing and the cashier tried to take it off the hanger and fold it into a bag, my mom would go "Ohhh NO. Put THAT in the bag too."

nah, the peak is when there's a group of customers surrounding a common product display (eggs, butter, juice, crackers..TOILET PAPER...) and they are all laughing together and remembering the 'old' prices....and they all walk away empty handed

Life doesn't get faster. You just forget pretty much every moment of your life's routine; so, yesterday feels just like today. One week ago feels just like today. One year ago feels just like today. That's because every day is the same.

Yep, it’s a real phenomenon. It also has to do with us having fewer new experiences as we age, slower processing time as we get older and just having lived longer.

I remember having a complete MELTDOWN while out Christmas shopping w/ my parents cause no matter how much I begged to get home by 8 for Peanuts Christmas, we didn't make it home in time to see any of it and my dad was like, 'stop crying! it'll be on next year!' That seemed like forever to a little kid! And now I'm like, 'didn't I JUST put these decorations away? How is it thanksgiving already?'

I owned a music electronics repair shop. As musicians are late risers, I rarely had any customers until noon. I worked 12 Pm-6PM.

My grocery store finally stopped playing easy listening about 2 yrs ago. Then they played 60s-90s for about a year and I was in heaven. After a year of this they switched to electronic dance music, I'm in hell.

That sounds awful, I'm sorry you have to deal with that. Maybe if possible you can order your groceries online from that grocery store and just drive to pick them up?

Wait till you get to the age when what's playing in elevators and grocery stores are songs you remember thinking, "Kids listen to cr*p like this now?" when you first heard them.
Norm Gilmore 1 year ago
Yeah, but those songs you disliked as a teen are now familiar and comforting..

And the price of a decent pillow that doesn't turn into a lumpy wad of stuffing after two months of use.
Tim Douglass 1 year ago
Funny thing is that I found the best pillow in a big bin at Costco for only $10 for two. It is firm, but shapeable and doesn't ever get hard, even after months of use. I can make it thick to keep my neck straight when I sleep on my side, or thin it out with a roll under my neck when I sleep on my back, or whatever else works for the moment. ... They have, of course, discontinued it.
