Comment on Does anyone feel like an actual adult?

Thinking of yourself as an “adult” is just a construct that was embedded into most people at a young age. When we were kids, we saw adults as these elevated beings that had transcended childhood and became something more. When you grow up, you realize you’re still the same person but with more responsibilities. It’s not the paradigm shift we thought it would be as kids, and that’s okay. I’m almost 40 and my idea of a perfect saturday is sleeping until 11am, waking up with a nice blunt, making some cheerios and watching cartoons until mid afternoon. Then spending the rest of the day playing video games or board games with friends. Adult life is just life, with extra steps.
