Is there anything productive we can say about what it means to be an adult? We turn to movies and TV, memes and tweets, and occasionally our friends and family for guidance on how to "adult." We want answers for how to get the best apartment, the best partner, the best job, the best concert tickets (ok I'm rambling now). 

 

The point is every time we look for answers, we are constantly reminded that there is no rule book and we are left to our own devices. If you're reading this and you are not an adult, this might seem empowering to some degree. If you're reading this and you are an adult, you know that this is less empowering and more bewildering. There's not much to do other than find witty remarks and pop culture references to send to your best friends in order to commiserate. We don't expect anything more or anything less from you. Here at FAIL Blog, we've got you covered. Keep scrolling below for these dark truths, and for more content like this, check out these therapy memes.
