It’s one thing to go into a task knowing that it’s going to be hard the whole way. It’s going to be a lot of work, but it’ll be worth it in the end, blah blah blah, and so we dive right in.
We get offended, I think, when we’re not expecting a big to-do but a project or task turns out to be a whole pile of work when we were expecting a tiny speck.
Here are 16 things you might want to prepare for, because they’re probably going to be far more trouble than you think at the start.
16. Sometimes you just don’t want to be there anymore.
Leaving a party/social gathering. I wish it wasn’t considered rude to just fucking leave.
15. How did you think it such a hardship 10 minutes before?
And getting out of the shower after it took you so long to get in.
14. Delayed gratification is hard.
Saving up to retire.
13. It’s depressing because it’s true.
getting mental health treatment without having to fight everyone on the way in a test of your determination.
Last year I was having a really difficult time with some family stuff. I currently live in the southeastern United States.
Trying to find a psychologist that would even call me back was impossible. I seriously hope this is a unique problem that no one ever has to deal with.
12. It really is the little things.
When the damn seatbelt keeps getting stuck while you’re trying to put it on! You be raging in your car before you’ve left your driveway.
11. All about who you know.
Looking for a job when you have no connections.
I’d like to add applying for jobs specifically. So tired of all these Indeed postings trying to make me take a mini exam to prove I’m worthy of applying
10. This makes me angry.
Getting your tubes tied without having already had at least 2 children.
My wife and I aren’t having kids and she doesn’t want to worry about it, but NO doctor will even consider it, and we’re both in our 30s.
9. It’s no picnic.
Period.
I dream of not having the sometimes unbearable pain and all this fucking blood to clean up every time.
I once passed out because of that, I was unable to call anyone to get me painkillers.
8. They must be from the Midwest.
Leaving a restaurant with my family.
OK, meal is over, let’s say our goodbyes and head out.
OK, standing next to the table, let’s say our goodbyes and head out.
OK, just outside the front door, let’s say our goodbyes and head out.
OK, made it to the parking lot, let’s say our goodbyes and head out.
FFS, just say bye and walk away!
Why is this so hard!
7. I feel this one in my bones.
Taxes.
On year 4 of doing them myself.
I’m either doing it right or should be expecting a call from the IRS some time in the future.
6. Comfort is key after the year we’ve had.
Figuring out what to wear to work that will be both comfortable and not look bad/sloppy.
5. A circle that leads to nowhere.
Getting a job with no experience.
4. And then having to express them. Ugh.
emotions honestly.
like what the f*ck dude how can something i cant even see make me feel the way they make you feel
3. It’s harder to find things in common.
Making friends as an adult.
Young kids don’t really have the forward thinking or mental blocks that plague adults.
Kids are pretty carefree and are unaware of a lot of things.
When you don’t have these mental blocks or that voice inside of your head, it’s pretty easy to meet and make friends.
Think of it as a weird “ignorance is bliss”.
2. Who is telling the truth?
Knowing what a proper diet and exercise routine is, everyone’s out there trying to monetize it and it seems like everything either beginner or advanced nothing in between.
1. See also: breastfeeding.
Childbirth.
Literally every human that comes into this world requires either 1) that their mother endure hours of unimaginable pain before literally ripping apart her genitals to allow this new human life an entrance into the world or 2) that their mother allow a group of strangers to slice through her abdominal muscles into her uterus to extract a baby, before then undergoing many weeks of pain and physical recovery from the trauma of major surgery.
Wow, if some of these aren’t so true.
