It was an email going around a while back titled “Adult Truths” that listed several things you eventually learn as an adult. Pretty funny and true for most of these. So I share these with you in case you haven’t seen them before. Enjoy!
Adult Truths
- I think part of a best friend’s job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die. (you know who you are!)
- Nothing stinks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you’re wrong.
- I totally take back all those times I didn’t want to nap when I was younger.
- There is great need for a sarcasm font.
- How in the world are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet? (I just roll and roll and roll!)
- Was learning cursive really necessary?
- MapQuest really needs to start their directions on # 5. I’m pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood. (LOL)
- Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.
- I can’t remember the last time I wasn’t at least kind of tired.
- Bad decisions make good stories.
- You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren’t going to do anything productive for the rest of the day. (YES!)
- Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don’t want to have to restart my Collection…again. (thank you!)
- I’m always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page technical report that I swear I did not make any changes to. (this applies to other apps too)
- I keep some people’s phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call. (this is a must!)
- I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than Kay.
- I wish Google Maps had an “Avoid Ghetto” routing option. (ROTFL!!)
- I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.
- How many times is it appropriate to say “What?” before you just nod and smile because you still didn’t hear or understand a word they said? (I feel bad sometimes after like the third What because I don’t want to keep asking…
) - I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent a jerk from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters!
- Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.
- Sometimes I’ll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is. (LOL!)
- Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey, but I’d bet everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time.
- The first testicular guard, the “Cup,” was used in Hockey in 1874 and the first helmet was used in 1974. That means it only took 100 years for men to realize that their brain is also important. (OMG, can’t stop laughing!)
- Has anyone figured out why there’s an eject button on the DVD remote? Don’t you still have to get up and take out the DVD??? (Umm, I sometimes hit Eject when people are over just so they can take it out for me….shhh!)
Over to you…
Do you have any other “adult truths” to share? I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Girl I saw you nodding! Yes, some of these still crack me up…I think I just like pressing the eject button just because….shhhh
These are funny but some really hit home. Like the bad decisions leading to good stories – I think I have a few too many good stories, lol….
I think we all have some of those stories…some that our friends can still bribe us with LOL
Ah dear, and I thought it was just me and the fitted sheets….and storing phone numbers

Girl, the fitted sheet is a beast to fold. I just fold it as best I can and then tuck those ugly corners in … nobody sees it anyway
LOL
fun cool and great to remember to offer others a good laugh… something like Murphy’s law’s affirmations! Thanks cool post..!
Thanks Patricia! I love to laugh and bring laughter to others so I’m glad you got a smile out of this. That’s what life’s about right – having fun
Talk soon!
This is one of the funniest lists I ever read, Thanks! Check your messages in FAcebook, Kesha, please.

Hey Ali, glad you enjoyed these
BTW I’ll check my messages and get back with you too….
Too funny. And I’m so pleased to see someone else out there still uses Mapquest and Google Maps besides me. And now, it’s bedtime.

Oh girl I’m always using Google maps so I always crack up at the one about avoiding the ghetto LOL
Glad you enjoyed these
These are all so good.
I so want a sarcasm font…
I have told a lot of good stories after bad decisions
I have said before that my GPS should have an avoid the hood setting.
Join the club with those good stories…we all have them
I remember one time when looking for a friend’s house in the Chi, I wished I had the avoid the hood setting LOL
Appreciate your comment!
Awesome post…just awesome! So fun to read and had me feeling so normal. I would add that I have given up looking for the stray sock. Should it decide to come home one day, I’ll still be here. It does still drive me crazy that every single damn time I use the bathroom, my dog sits, whines and scratches at the door waiting for me to come out. There is no escape door in the bathroom, but perhaps there should be. And by the way…there is no difference between boredom and hunger. Duh!? Lovely read, Kesha.

LOL I knew it…boredom and hunger are the same!
Tammy, I cannot for the life of me figure out where the stray socks go! Every once in a while, one comes up missing and it’s just me in the house! 
And our pets are funny acting that way right?! My cat doesn’t like closed doors. If she’s in my room with me, she’ll scratch on the door to be let out. Then once she’s out, she’ll scratch and whine to be let back in. Crazy cat!
So I leave all doors cracked for her convenience…*yeah, she runs the house* LOL
Wow–all of these are pretty much on point! Except you don’t see #19 happening too much anymore (folks wanna be selfish now! LOL) and #21 is looking down at the cell phone more than a watch! LOL –I love these they’re great!

MELISASource recently posted..Music Mondays: Be the YOU that You’re Supposed to Be!
LOL yes, people are quick to pull up right on the tail of another car almost hitting them to not let folks in. I do let people in sometimes just to be nice (except on the Poplar bridge going to 44/55 because people like to ride the 64/40 lane until the very last minute and then try to get over – SUCKAS!)
Since I feel naked without a watch, it’s still watch for me…easier to look at than finding my phone!
Thanks for sharing chica!

I’m late to the part, but I’m dying over this list!
What I want to know is, why is the quickest way to get to 90% of places always to take a route through the hood? I mean the scenic route where you see the projects, shoes hanging on the light pole, and probably a few trap houses…LOL! These are things that I NEED to know! Please and thank you!

Unfortunately girl I have the same questions with no answers…I don’t get the shoes on the wire; still don’t know what that means…I continue to scratch my head on that
But when you find out, please let me know! LOL
Hey girl, I know what it means. LOL! I just want to know why we have to go there!
It means that they sell dope on that block.

Seriously!! I would not have guessed that in a million years!! Goes to show how people will go out of their way to make a statement LOL
Learned something new today…thanks boo!
This is one of the funniest lists I ever read, Thanks!
Glad you like!

I love this list. Only one I can’t relate to, I don’t use an alarm. But I think I have figured out how to hit snooze on my body clock effectively.
I totally keep numbers in my phone so I know not to answer them. And will give them names like don’t you dare! I am currently using the barking ringtone for an ex. Lol.
Girl, you know that’s the game – you gotta keep those numbers so you won’t accidentally answer the nut bags, crazies, and stalkers!! LOL
Oh, and I forgot to mention family!
One of our favorites is Jenga. Write something naughty on each of the blocks…whoever removes it has to do what is written on the block. Our set has things like remove an article of clothing, not shoes or socks or kiss the person to your right on the mouth for 2 full minutes, grab a body part of the person to your left, etc.
