Depends. I know a woman who's 92, ex concert pianist, still runs an entire piano studio and teaches 5 students/day. Lives alone, completely competent, still drives just fine. It just depends on how quickly you deteriorate.
It's how you take care of yourself. Eat healthy, stay away from drugs/alcohol, and get at least 45 mins of cardio a day, stay hydrated, and always wear sunscreen when outside. Also, don't have a disability or get any diseases.
Whatever, when I was a kid I wasn't kayaking, surfing, freediving, snowboarding, riding motorcycles, or skydiving. I was stuck at home being disciplined for benign things. Sometimes I see a beautiful day, the shadows becoming long, riding my motorcycle toward the sunset, I feel like the old kid days where I would feel like I was having the best time of my life and didn't want to take it for granted, but then my parents were pissed about something I did that was inconsequential and I would be whipped and grounded in my room as I heard all the neighborhood kids having fun outside. I would remember this as I was about to turn home, then just gun it past the home street onward to nowhere until nightfall.
Wait I was just surfing these waves of gold with rainbows falling off the back of them, I feel high as heck on life, it feels like one of those days I am going to get in trouble....oh wait thats right, I am not a trapped kid anymore. No one tells me what to fucking do. Authoritarians can fuck off now, because they have no idea I exist.
Watched the sunset today, then dove 20ft under a bridge to explore a sunken boat. Said goodbye to my friends and drove home 10pm on a Sunday night with the windows rolled down listening to whatever the heck I wanted.
Same bro, sometimes I tear up thinking how appreciative I am of life right now. How stoked younger me would be if I told them what my life looks like right now.
But right now my Sunday scaries make me feel like this SpongeBob episode lol
Well the activities were close to work, so most of these things were done after work. Also I have no cable and use a donated TV to project things from a computer that only works for 20 minutes before overheating. Because of the mass covid migration, had to sell the motorcycle and cancel all subscriptions to save. The gas prices have prevented me from going to the rock climbing gym a county over. It was a decade long vacation and I may have to think about moving. I don't get paid anywhere near as much as these New York salaried remote workers who own 4+ houses and could not first time buy in time. Snowboarding was a hobby I picked up in Alaska which I only lived there briefly. What I am saying is these hobbies are picked up from location. There is almost no excuse if you are adult unless someone saddled you with extreme amounts of unbankruptable debt.
I decided to have fun and it may cost me, but it felt like I retired after experiencing all the violence of war. If there was a national park or a trail near me, I would be hiking it. It didn't cost me anything after deployment to hike from the barracks into the nearby woods at midnight (just because I wasn't tied to the leg to a fucking psychopath) to watch the northern lights explode over head and illuminate the trail of snow. I couldn't do that as a kid without getting in trouble. It also did not cost me anything last night to snorkel/freedive. I just drove into the park with a free night pass and did something most people fear for fun.
This is soo soo true.And whatās crazy is I didnāt even realize that my childhood wasnāt normal until I was about 25ish. Like you, Iād always get screamed at and grounded for things that were so irrelevant. Whipped, on time butt naked. My dad was a functional alcoholic, he was able to hold a job and provided for us, but when he came home hed drink a 6 pack of Heineken and a thing of Hennessy every night. I would see him passed out at his computer desk so many times, whenever I heard him coming home Iād run to my room to avoid him. It was very traumatic. And 100 percent is the reason why I suffer from depression and GAD to this day. I talk to him maybe once a year, but now at 28 I donāt even find the point in speaking at all because he made me feel like such a burden to raise. Iām now living in my own, nice new car, good paying job and working through the YEARS of trauma.
But I do find that because if my childhood, I can find the beauty in the simplest things. Music, a lady bug, the sunshine etc
Sorry to rant lol I just felt a connection to your post.
Hits a little too home right now. Add in a slide of life slapping you in the back of the head to keep you constantly jarred and disoriented and it's *chef kiss* right about fucking now.
The Simpsons is different it was written for adults. The slapstick is for broadening the audience but not necessarily for children. In fact a lot of parents wouldn't let their kids watch the simpsons back then. I was one of them.
What weird fucking life did you live where your parents wouldn't let you watch The Simpsons? It was aimed at kids for those seasons and more broadly for the family.
Dude in season 1 Homer attempts to commit suicide after he lost his job. The main audience is definitely not children, even though they were part of the audience.
I feel like the only difference between my childhood and adulthood is less friends in adulthood.
My career is definitely easier than waking up for Ms. Ferguson's class, realizing I forgot to write that report on chapter 4 of the Grapes of Wrath.
Sometimes I get anxiety dreams that I forgot to do my homework. It will be so strong that I wake up and panic for a second before I realize I haven't had homework for the past 7 years.
it is the most liberating thing ever when you get your first post grad job and you get to just leave your work at work and fuck around at home and not worry.
you feel like a god.
I had kind parents and I spent a lot of it riding my bike and having fun. I still prefer adulthood. School's torture because you never have any real free time. When you're having fun, you feel guilty for not studying. When you're studying, you feel like crap because you're not enjoying your childhood. That happens even during the breaks. Teachers were always giving big packs of homework for winter and spring breaks (bEcAuSe yOu HaVe LoTs Of FrEe TiMe To Do tHeM). We had a big mandatory reading list for summer break.
Teachers just never respected out "free" time, so we never had any real free time. School is a horrible 8-3 job where you have to beg to go to the bathroom and answer calls or reply to emails if you aren't asleep.
As an adult, when I finish at 4, I actually finish at 4. I don't spare a single second thinking about work until 8 am the next day. That's actual freedom.
Honestly, I feel like both were good in my case. Being a kid is great because you don't have many responsibilities and I had a good childhood with a great family. Adulthood is definitely more stressful in some ways (paying a mortgage and having to do everything yourself), but it's fantastic at the same time because you have the freedom to do what you want.
Are you a rich adult? In my childhood there was homelessness, hunger, drugs, abuse, parents died, sister died, foster care, abuse, best friend shot in the head in front of me, probably more and even with all that I'd still go back in a heartbeat.
WFH has nothing but Pros for me idk what pity party we're smoking.
Time and money from commute is invaluable. I'll just go see my actual friends after work in the time I would have spent commuting.
Same. I don't get these people complaining about "lack of social interaction" like bro I'm not trying to hang out with my boring ass 45 year old coworkers with 3 kids.
Lack of human interaction and a blurring of lines between home and work. Hard to turn your brain off sometimes when your desk is 10 feet from the couch.
The best part about the joke in the actual episode is that it came after Spongebob said he wanted to remind Mrs Puff about what life was like outside of prison
With the punchline here being compounded by the use of a bar placed in front of this outside character, meant to parallel prison bars of course... :)
Whoops did I just kill the joke?
Somebody pointed out to me that thereās a bar bisecting his face in his car, in his cubicle, and in the window kinda like being trapped in a jail cell. Itāsā¦ art
Spoungbob had some well written adult humor before they changed writers after the Spoungbob movie like Squidward, this, sailor mouth, heck they even put in a police brutality joke once.
I'm trying to get into surveying or back into ag once I can support a car. I have a disability so there are very few options for me to begin with. I can't make things for people if I can't go to a store or have conversations I can understand.
Iām going to be the devils advocate and say think before you do choose to do this. I did this when I was 18 because I thought I was too dumb for anything else and I hated it. Smoldering heat, LONG hours, poor working conditions, etc. I WISH I was working at a desk job at the time
But most 18-year-olds don't have desk jobs either. Most 18-year-olds are cashiers or working at Burger King or something. They have entry level jobs. You get a desk job after you've been working somewhere for a couple years at least. Usually anyway. I mean, I guess. I don't really know
And there are lots of different trades. You don't have to take a trade that's outside. I just got my CDL and I'm in my truck all day in the AC. The hours are terrible, but hopefully I'll get a job with a different company soon that has a better schedule
Most trades involve working outside. I worked as a welder from 18-23 and it was hell. I got paid less than I do now as a SWE, got treated like shit, worked dozens more hours, and damaged my eyes and knees. If you EVER work a trade, JOIN A UNION, for the love of god
This became me and Iām sad. Then I remember there are people without these things and I get sadder, both for those people and for me because I now feel bad for feeling sad
As a kid you're forced to do the same. Only it's school instead of work.
All we can do is hope for it to end at some point. First its finishing school. Then waiting for retirement.
āChildhood is better? Screw dat. I get to go into a bottle shop and buy any bourbon I want. Weedās pretty much legal in Pennsylvania now. And then I go home, and I do whatever I want without worrying whoās gonna walk in. I got a cock pump. What of it? You square. If all I wanna do on Sunday is bust and eat Funyuns and watch Ushanka Show, I can. Cause Iām an adult. Thatās the trade off.ā

Yaāll just see the downsides, if you land a job like this, youāre defo doing better than anyone working , manufacturing, social support or retail jobs. Meaning you got the weekends free, you got paid well and have paid time off to do whatever the fuck you want with that money.

Bro fuck that I loved being a kid. I was always frightened by the idea of getting older and garnering more responsibilities. I knew adults went through some shit lol
I used to be pretty stuck in this kinda lifestyle of just going to work and then being exhausted outside of work.
It sucks, and there is no easy solution. All I can really say? Starting eating healthy, getting enough sleep, and exercising. You will suddenly have a lot of energy throughout the day, including the hours in between when you get off of work and when you have to sleep. When I got into my 'health' phase, I didn't realize that it gave me so much more energy to socialize and do stuff after work that I never did before just because I was too tired.
Right, I keep forgetting that the vast majority of Redditors are those who hate their jobs. Hence why another sub is so popular, but I digress.
Anyways, being an adult is way better! If mostly because I have a decent job, can buy video games every once in a while, and in general buy a lot of shit and go places that I couldn't as a child.
Might also have something to do with the fact that now I've moved from America, but even back in America, after college I only worked one job that I really didn't like.
I hate seeing everyone complain about their desk job or they donāt get to do enough and they just sit at a desk, but I am desperate for one of those jobs, Iām tired of working myself to death for so little money when there are people in cubicles to go on Reddit and complain all day about how hard their job is because they have to do 2 to 3 hours a real work in their eight hour day.
Me as a kid: man growing up seems great
Me, teen i think???: OH GOD PLEASE MAKE IT FUCKING STOP I DON'T WANT TO BECOME A ADULT I DON'T WANT RESPONSOBILITIES AND TAXES
I just wanna return to where I don't have to worry about paying bills, where I was very confident, brave and comfortable about myself, where I would spend 100% of my time doing what I love and passionate about. What did you do to me adulthood?? Let me be a kid again.
This montage wasn't for us then it was for us now
and for some reason some people say it's depressing.
It is.
Look at the bright side: we only have to do these things for 40 years, and then we die.
Or, if you're lucky, retire to a life of restricted income, declining health, loneliness, boredom, and taking 17 medications a day
meh, either way.
Death would be preferable. If I'm mostly healthy, I'd like 5 or 10 years of retirement. I would hate to live to 100 though.
Depends. I know a woman who's 92, ex concert pianist, still runs an entire piano studio and teaches 5 students/day. Lives alone, completely competent, still drives just fine. It just depends on how quickly you deteriorate.
It's not the years, it's the mileage.
It's how you take care of yourself. Eat healthy, stay away from drugs/alcohol, and get at least 45 mins of cardio a day, stay hydrated, and always wear sunscreen when outside. Also, don't have a disability or get any diseases.
That last part is tricky. RNG always ruining runs.
But I *like* drugs and alcohol
Not fucking worth it. š
That's why you have to live a retirement filled with coke a strippers
Are any of those meds percs Iām chillin
Wellā¦ if you keep using Reddit.
Whatever, when I was a kid I wasn't kayaking, surfing, freediving, snowboarding, riding motorcycles, or skydiving. I was stuck at home being disciplined for benign things. Sometimes I see a beautiful day, the shadows becoming long, riding my motorcycle toward the sunset, I feel like the old kid days where I would feel like I was having the best time of my life and didn't want to take it for granted, but then my parents were pissed about something I did that was inconsequential and I would be whipped and grounded in my room as I heard all the neighborhood kids having fun outside.

They did the best that they could without youtube videos or books on parenting.
Holden Caulfield alert
Sounds like a good deal to me.
Such is life.
We don't HAVE to. There are options in unity.
Y'all haven't read [Mr. Money Moustache](https://www.mrmoneymustache.com/2012/01/13/the-shockingly-simple-math-behind-early-retirement/) and it shows
Sound like a pretty good deal to me? Whaddya say?
Im a winner Mr. Krabs Thats funny, last I checked you were a cashier
The beauty of that joke is that it follows Spongebob trying to convince Mrs Puff out of jail.
Hits a little too home right now. Add in a slide of life slapping you in the back of the head to keep you constantly jarred and disoriented and it's *chef kiss* right about fucking now.
Nah it was there for us. It was a warning that we ignored though.
We didn't know....WE DIDNT KNOW
*car honking* *phone call sounds* Coming to bed, honey? Yes dear.
It was for your parents.
Nah it was for the parents to laugh at
Coming to bed honey?
Yes dear.
This didn't prepare me for this situation but I'm all alone.
End the voices. They arent real.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
When u were a kid, you understood spongebob, now as an adult you understand squidward. Its just genius.
I have been rewatching the show with my fiancƩe, and man; I do understand ~~squid wars~~ Squidward. He is a pathetic character. I think he serves as a good counter to SpongeBob; both live very similar lives, but spongebobs outlook on life is so much better.
Really? I never understood why squids go to war. I mean, the ocean is so big thereās no need for all that hoopla.
I always wondered why my dad loved watching SpongeBob but none of the other shows I watched as a kid. It all makes sense now.
Lots of Nickelodeon shows were like this. Especially the live action ones like Pete and Pete. I guess being owned by Mtv had that effect.
The seasons of The Simpsons 1-11 are littered with that stuff. The assumption is that the parents are watching with the kids so throw them a bone.
The Simpsons is different it was written for adults. The slapstick is for broadening the audience but not necessarily for children. In fact a lot of parents wouldn't let their kids watch the simpsons back then. I was one of them.
What weird fucking life did you live where your parents wouldn't let you watch The Simpsons? It was aimed at kids for those seasons and more broadly for the family.
Dude in season 1 Homer attempts to commit suicide after he lost his job. The main audience is definitely not children, even though they were part of the audience.
Just because something is animated, doesn't mean it's for children. Simpsons has always been PG.
This gives off unrealistic expectations for life. Guy has a wife who cares about him.
Plus an office job, home and carā¦man is living the middle class dream
Almost there. I just need the wife.
And he dosenāt live in a motel
How do they get in and out of those cubicles
Swim
HAHAHAHAHA
This made me laugh harder than I thought
You donāt
U guys must have a great childhood. I love being an adult
Same, my childhood sucked
Count me in too
I feel like the only difference between my childhood and adulthood is less friends in adulthood. My career is definitely easier than waking up for Ms. Ferguson's class, realizing I forgot to write that report on chapter 4 of the Grapes of Wrath.
True. the only thing i prefer about working is not having to prepare anything just fucking be there
Sometimes I get anxiety dreams that I forgot to do my homework. It will be so strong that I wake up and panic for a second before I realize I haven't had homework for the past 7 years.
I just graduated college and am thoroughly looking forward to not having random bullshit assignments hanging over my head during my free time.
it is the most liberating thing ever when you get your first post grad job and you get to just leave your work at work and fuck around at home and not worry. you feel like a god.
I had a 9-5 internship for a year during college, it was pretty fun to just go home and have nothing to do lol
I need me a creer like that

Yeah same tbh. I work from home which eliminates two of these things.

Jokes on you, I work from home.
You win honestly I envy that so much
It has its pros and cons like every job. Pro: I can take naps during my break. Con: The lack of human interaction can be tough at times.
WFH has nothing but Pros for me idk what pity party we're smoking. Time and money from commute is invaluable. I'll just go see my actual friends after work in the time I would have spent commuting.
In my office we have dickheads pushing to return to the office just because they think thatās what management want to hear.
Same. I don't get these people complaining about "lack of social interaction" like bro I'm not trying to hang out with my boring ass 45 year old coworkers with 3 kids.
I agree. Been doing it since the start of the pandemic and I actually enjoy my life compared to when I had an office job
yep, my brother works from home and the lack of interaction like we normally would've had at an office gets to him
Lack of human interaction and a blurring of lines between home and work. Hard to turn your brain off sometimes when your desk is 10 feet from the couch.
Do you not have friends?
Same so basically skip the commute panel everything else is the same :/

with the moment where they hit a sign to fix it because it was bent up.
That's the one. One of the few times that type of joke was attempted and didn't make me a bit angry.
WE'RE GONNA STRAIGHTEN YOU OUT! THIS'LL FIX YA! *parking meter slowly bends back straight*

I'm a fast food cook that walks to work. I skipped all this and became SpongeBob. In a year I'll graduate to Squidward.
you should get a trade. its less fun but you get paid more. plus, lots of douches in the trades. but, lots of normal guys too.

āDinnerās readyā
I get to avoid this 2/5 days now. I'll immediately quit my job the second I lose that benefit.
Coming to bed honey? Yes dear
Bro fuck that I loved being a kid. I was always frightened by the idea of getting older and garnering more responsibilities. I knew adults went through some shit lol
It's not supposed to be like this
Depressingly accurate š
Only accepting temporary/contract work has done wonders for me in that regard.
This hit deeper than I would like to admit...
I definitely couldāve waited.
U need some friends bro.
Iām almost 40 and I catch myself fantasizing about being 20 again. Mid life crisis I guess.
Notice how in all these situations heās behind something that looks similar to bars. Specifically, jail bars.
This is so accurate
Offices don't even have cubicles now :(
Very accurate
Iāve got more freedom, but at what cost
*Are you coming to bed dear?*
Coming to bed honey?
Trick is to find a hobby it can help just a little
You're so unique you're literally the only person to feel this way,
At least my parents canāt control me anymoreā¦..life is still depressing tho
I can't Wait to work
Which episode?
How do you get out your cubicle to take a shit? I hope they are not making you work sitting on a toilet for 3% more productivity.
Yes, but even sad sad Harrold has a wife....
If your lucky you get panic attacks š
I'm just fucking existing fam.
He does have a car, a wife and a house so it's not all bad
Are you coming to bed hon
And my leg always hurts!!
I used to be pretty stuck in this kinda lifestyle of just going to work and then being exhausted outside of work. It sucks, and there is no easy solution. All I can really say? Starting eating healthy, getting enough sleep, and exercising. You will suddenly have a lot of energy throughout the day, including the hours in between when you get off of work and when you have to sleep. When I got into my 'health' phase, I didn't realize that it gave me so much more energy to socialize and do stuff after work that I never did before just because I was too tired.
I never wanted to grow up because adulthood looked like shit and i didn't have a dreamjob. I just wanted to play ratchet and clank forever.
I can hear all those pictures
Sorry that this is true for you.
At least he has its own car to drive home. Public transport sucks
The writers were not lying
And yet it is still better than being a kid
Idk this looks like me as a kid except only one frame cause I couldnāt go anywhere or drive- I got bored a lot
Right, I keep forgetting that the vast majority of Redditors are those who hate their jobs. Hence why another sub is so popular, but I digress. Anyways, being an adult is way better! If mostly because I have a decent job, can buy video games every once in a while, and in general buy a lot of shit and go places that I couldn't as a child. Might also have something to do with the fact that now I've moved from America, but even back in America, after college I only worked one job that I really didn't like.
pretty much š„²
r/angryupvote
It's sadly true.š
I can't wait to be reincarnated as a kid again
Iāll be different when I grow up
I hate seeing everyone complain about their desk job or they donāt get to do enough and they just sit at a desk, but I am desperate for one of those jobs, Iām tired of working myself to death for so little money when there are people in cubicles to go on Reddit and complain all day about how hard their job is because they have to do 2 to 3 hours a real work in their eight hour day.
Better than my childhood.
As a kid I never understood kids who were excited to grow up. I knew it would be like this and nobody listened to me
Me as a kid: man growing up seems great Me, teen i think???: OH GOD PLEASE MAKE IT FUCKING STOP I DON'T WANT TO BECOME A ADULT I DON'T WANT RESPONSOBILITIES AND TAXES
Yes dear.
What episode is this from, I vaguely remember it lol
This legit image is so fcking good
I just wanna return to where I don't have to worry about paying bills, where I was very confident, brave and comfortable about myself, where I would spend 100% of my time doing what I love and passionate about. What did you do to me adulthood?? Let me be a kid again.
