Groaning when you climb up a flight of stairs is the new norm. Remembering names has become more difficult, although to be fair, you were never particularly good at that anyway. And the music? This new stuff sounds like angry robots having a rave in a blender. Does this sound like you? Congrats, you're getting older. You are officially a grown-up.

There are many things I can't do anymore, all thanks to… aging. I constantly feel like a hungover sloth. Some would say, 'Change your diet' while others would advise I exercise more. What if I told you I do both those things? And I'm still exhausted.

Scroll down for a hearty good laugh about what it feels like to grow up, and then check out these running shoes stuffed with hilarious memes.
