i swear i though that i was the only one doing "adulthood" wrong!!!

so adults DON'T have life figured out. I wonder if I will by the time I'm dead.

Whoever relates to these cartoons has a poor outlook on life, I had some hard years but have had a good time most of the way through. At 40 I'm fitter, faster and stronger than ever doing pretty much what I want when I want. Don't waste money and there will usually be enough in the kitty to do most things within reason which is why I don't work anywhere near as hard as in my 20's. I earn less but have a much better easier job and don't need the money, plus more time to do what I want. Zero debts, no kids and only occasional women when I can be bothered. Time to think about and study subjects such as whether NASA really went to the moon or if the earth is flat. Much better to be an adult than a kid who is told what to do and how to think.

As an 'adulting' author myself, I always stop to look at these and find them amusing. However, they can also make my job a little harder because people laugh and think this is how it is so this is how it has to stay. Aging and adulting can be difficult but I think sometimes stuff like this can demonize aging and perpetuate our youth-centred culture. I'm happy to get older and I personally found being in my twenties a lot more tedious! {If you're into it, check me at beingthirties.com} ;)

Awesome!

clichés! clichés everywhere!
