getting old

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.

If you've passed the age of 25, then you've almost certainly hit that inevitable quarter-life crisis where you start feeling like an old person. Suddenly you have to be in bed by 10 pm every night or else you'll feel like utter sh*t every morning, and going out seems like the most mundane chore in the world. It's rough, but unfortunately it's just a part of life, so own it!

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. 

While these goofy memes may not be award-winners, they're certainly more than capable of demolishing your boredom and maybe even putting a smile on your face. There's nothing like a healthy mix of memes, tweets, and comics to keep you from feeling like a psychopath. We're here to help!

"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?"

Not enough people acknowledge the struggles that come with graduating college and transitioning into the so-called real world. In college you look forward to parties every weekend, while in the adultingworld, you can't wait to jump into bed the minute you get home from work on Friday nights. And then there's bills to pay and the pressure to settle down with your soul mate, among many, many other things. Needless to say, it's a lot to juggle!
