Once you were dreaming of becoming an astronaut, visiting the furthest places, climbing the highest mountains, finding the biggest love, and then it was all gone one day.
Adulthood happened. It knocked on the door, handed you responsibilities you were not ready for and said that everything’s on your shoulders now. So now, most of my fellow dear millennials are juggling between things like the pandemic that made the world feel like an apocalyptic movie you didn’t sign up for, student loans, unaffordable rent, crazy expensive mochas your body nevertheless needs no-questions-asked, barely fine Tinder dates, sleepless Netflix binges, stressful jobs or the even more stressful absence of one, and lots other things nobody prepared us for.
So, dear adults, even though we can’t just get back to our childhood which equals devouring Harry Potter books and carelessly sleeping under the stairs, we can laugh at the absurdity we’re in right now. Scroll down through the best tweets that sum up adult life below and prepare to laugh and cry, and then laugh. Who cares, they already think of millennials as not very stable ones.

You actually subscribed? I always thought it just drops on your head like a brick
Without the drawer, they're in a pile. Without the pile, they're around the house. But they are NEVER in the trash because I need each one of the 18 chargers that work with nothing in my house. I just do.
Using a good pen has always brought me joy. Maybe I'm weird but I love stationary.
Well, I'm not an adult yet and I've read BP for long enough to realize that most adults in authority are kind of frauds haha. I have mastered the ability to guess what your childhood was like based on your behavior as an authoritative figure, ooooo *intense music as I open my third eye*
I truly am frightened on these multi lane hiways just stay to the right we gotta turn off somewhere!
28 - 4000 BC: I am the oldest member of the tribe and it's an honour to be chosen for the sacrifice
And teenage is whining "Why are there always ball-breakers to break my balls-uh?! Hello, grandma..."
I have one in the kitchen that has a sensor, so it opens when my hand gets near it. Great for when I am holding myself upright with the other hand.
Remember in comedy movies there was that dad, who kept weird old outfits and told "That was a great trend, it will come back, you'll see"? I am that dad now.
My friend is buying me a car battery for a Christmas present. I'm so happy!
Or complaining about the ridiculous noise kids listen to these days and realise with horror you turned into your dad.
Pretending you are a person that can do what you need to do, then going home and hiding under the covers until you recover from having done it.
Sorry for the delay, I will talk to you shortly.-I will forget that you ever existed in the next 5 minutes.
God bless grandparents and their "still thinking in francs instead of euros" annual generosity!
Who says that? Nobody says that! Everyone knows your best years are your 30s!
I just want to lie in bed WITH Taylor Swift but I don't think that's gonna happen. Sigh.
