Worst Things About Being an Adult

The Top Ten
1 Having to Have a Job

Honestly yes, at the risk of sounding like a spoiled brat (forgive me, I was raised like one from both parents) thank you so much mother and father for giving me the gift of life, I gift I have to literally work for until the day I die or I'll be homeless and miserable.

I would like to just collect money for free.

2 Having to Pay Bills

Bills, bills, bills and more bills get use to seeing them in your mailbox.

3 Having to Pay Taxes

Honestly, yes, who even decided this was a good idea, government gets money from MY hard WORK?

Everyone's least favorite word in the English dictionary.

I'm not looking forward to being an adult.

4 Being Expected to Act Like an Adult

Me in eighth grade: (Cries because Dad won't let me go to Walmart)
Dad: You are not eight years old. You are in eighth grade, the oldest year of middle school, and you shouldn't cry over such a small thing. It's not as bad as Grandpa's death two years ago.
Me as an adult: I'm not going to Walmart, because I'm afraid Dad won't let me. I don't even want to be banned from Walmart or severely punished when I get home.

Not going to Walmart is one of my childhood punishments that has become a goal and a blessing in my adulthood.

5 Never Having Enough Time

My life goes by WAY too fast due to all the homework I get in college and I also sleep in a lot and my parents make me go to bed early.

Tell me about it my job always keeps me busy I almost never have time to go On The Top Tens List website anymore.

Between Work and Other stuff most adults never time to watch movies, play video games or anything else fun.

6 No Summer Vacation
7 Having to Be Responsible All the Time

As a kid you mess up no big deal but as an adult everything falls on your shoulders.

8 Getting Thrown in Jail When You Break the Law

Kids/Teens are sent to detention centres when they break the law.

9 Worrying About Getting an STD
10 Relationship Pressures
The Contenders
11 Metabolism Slows Down
12 Physical Appearance Deteriorates
13 Not Being Able to Party Anymore
14 Lose Touch with What's "Cool"

Think of what Abe Simpson said when you reach older age. "With it"

15 If You Don't Do It, No One Else Will
16 People Telling You that You're Too Old for ________

Honestly, at 25, I get stares for playing Pokemon and Yugioh, but to them, I say, mind yo own damn business, if you want to be boring and miserable, be my guess, but I will always enjoy watching Spongebob and playing video games and card games.

If someone ever tells me I am too old for amusement parks and roller coasters, they will feel my wrath.

Honestly, screw anyone who says I'm "too old" to do things like trick or treating.

17 Life is More Boring

That is definitely true. As you get older, life is no longer fun like it was when you were a little kid. For me, whenever it snows and school gets cancelled (I'm a teenager), I get really stressed, irritable, sad, depressed, etc. When I was younger, I used to get really excited whenever it snowed, but now, I no longer do. I live in Lynnwood, WA. I'm just glad that the snow is not as bad as some states, like Chicago.

When I was a little kid, my life was fun. I got to do whatever I wanted, such as playing with toys, playing out in the snow, miss school (due to snowy weather, since I didn't like school until now). But now, whenever I had snow day, I realized how boring it was :(

18 Having to Raise Kids
19 Always Being Tired
20 Growing Hair in Places
21 Mid-Life Crisis
22 Hangovers
23 Being Closer to Death
24 Parents No Longer Fix Your Problems

For example I'm an adult and my mom is overprotective and won't allow me to use to go out alone, but when I ask her to take me on vacations more, she told me that she doesn't have to care about my problems anymore since I'm an adult and that I have to deal with it. FML! >:(

I mean it's part of life. Being independent is way way better than having to rely on other people on spoonfeeding you.
