Aging rules!
There are definitely a few perks to getting older. Some people take you more seriously. You can eat whatever you want. Hopefully you can live on your own. But there are also some definite downsides. For example, the hangovers. Rampant misanthropy. Having to pay rent and bills. These observational memes and tweets sum it all up in style. Hang in there fellow, olds. We'll get through this together.

This series of clever memes really helped put our worries about the future into perspective.

Do you ever wonder what the world will be like when us Millennials get older? We certainly do.

Let's just get this out of the way: can anyone really say Matt Damon's name without thinking of that scene in Team America: World Police? We certainly can't.

Times are tough right now, and people are finding themselves having to cope with being responsible adults. The whole "adulting" thing felt a little easier when we could go out, blow off steam, or just order a meal from Seamless. Thanks to coronavirus, these privileges are no longer available to us. We're having to cook meals for ourselves, do our own laundry, and find ways to self-soothe. And while we're capable, let's face it: it ain't fun. And these memes and posts pretty much sum that feeling up.
Reality can really be a b*tch, is there such a thing as aging gracefully?
Ever wonder why family photos from the past make everyone seem older than they are? You're not alone. The same idea seemed to stump Twitter user Brandon McCarthy, who took to social media to find out WTF is up with the phenomenon. Other people quickly chimed in with photos of actors, musicians, and professional sports players who looked far older than their years. We may have plastic surgery and fillers on our side, but it's more likely that better skincare and less cigarette smoking are helping us out in old age. Whatever it is, these photographs are definitely making us feel better about our wrinkles and imperfections.
"I'm This Old" is a brand new Twitter meme that really has people confronted with their age, and that's the scariest thought of all.
If you remember all or most of these things then you're likely a sad Millennial who's feeling a little panicked yourself about getting older (we're totally not projecting here or anything...). Worry not, because you're not the only one going through the harrowing process of feeling like you don't fit in with the kids anymore. Pretty soon you're going to look at a group of 20-year-olds and be tempted to say "how do you do, fellow kids?"
If you've been on the internet over the past week then you've probably heard about the "how hard did aging hit you challenge," in which people on social media compare photos of themselves from 2009 with a current photo from 2019. The challenge started on Facebook and quickly gained popularity on other platforms, also inspiring some people to make satirical then-and-now posts.
