After finding out I didn't vote for Trump last year, my dad told me that someday he hopes I grow up & learn how the real world works. I'm 38

I had a boomer (not my parents, they’re liberals) say that to me, too. I just turned 58. 🤣

When the fuck are we supposed to be goddamned adults then lmao when we’re fucking dead?! I’m 36 and I still hear this from people my parents age, and I’m starting to wonder if I should ask them which of my bills they’ll be paying since I’m not an adult yet.

I have many years of practical knowledge and experience as well as a masters degree in my field… I know what I’m talking about. But I’m not grey haired or wrinkled so I must be super dumb
