I know that zoomers are probably squirming right now because they find the word 'adulting' cringe, but most of you are still at school so you don't get a say in this, OK?
Of course, as Julie Beck pointed out in The Atlantic, if we think of the transition to adulthood as a collection of markers (getting a job, moving away from your parents, getting married, and having kids), we'll see that for most of history, except the 1950s and '60s, people did not become adults in any kind of predictable way. In fact, many took so long to acquire the concept (or even avoided it altogether), that you might even build a case that no one is really a grown-up.
To illustrate just how chaotic adult life is, we at Bored Panda have collected some of the most popular adulting memes on the internet. Take a look!
