11 Embarrassing Adulting Milestones Nobody Talks About

Being an adult is hard; Scrubbing Bubbles® Bubbly Bleach Gel Toilet Bowl Cleaner and Fresh Gel Toilet Cleaning Stamp makes it easier!

1. When you finally learn you can’t go out on weeknights...

...by going out on a weeknight.

2. When you're forced to make a weird pantry dinner because you forgot to go grocery shopping.

"Forgot."

3. When you experience a backache for the first time.

Complaining about your back: not just for dads!

4. When it dawns on you that everything your parents had in their house was something they purchased.

Need scissors? You're gonna have to buy them. Ditto stamps, tape, and literally everything else.

5. When falling asleep at 10:30 p.m. becomes a normal thing.

Adulting truth: Bedtimes are cool.

6. When someone refers to your favorite song as a "throwback" or "classic."

And in just a few years, it'll be considered an "oldie."

7. When you have to look up a tutorial for something simple like changing a light bulb.

Simple is a relative concept, OK!!!

8. When you start to feel like you've got a handle on money stuff and then someone mentions "financial instruments."

That's advanced-level money stuff.

9. When you’re super proud of yourself for assembling a shelf but it falls apart a week later.

Happens to the best of us...right?

10. When you get genuinely excited about something your 16-year-old self found unbearably boring.

Socks, appliances, quality ingredients...!

11. When you learn to clean the bathroom before it gets gross.

Cleaning is easier when you start with a clean(ish) bathroom.
