I still haven't figured out why kids are in such a rush to grow up, becoming an adult only to pay bills and get dumped.

It blows my mind. It’s like when all you wanted was to graduate high school and go off to college so you can get a good job right after, only to get to college and find out all you do is drink and cry and eat ramen, and jobs are still hard to get when you have a degree.
