Top Ten Things that Suck About Being an Adult

Kids get to have all the fun! Here are the top ten things that suck about being an adult.

#10 No Recess

It all starts in Kindergarten; you spend some time coloring in books, then you play with toys for a while (except that bastard Tommy usually takes the good ones) then you color some more, and then you get a snack and it's nap time; it's a good system. Skip ahead, now you're in Grade School and things are starting to suck a little more but it's still a good system; they try to make you learn stuff for a while but then in the middle of the day you get to go play on the swings. Does it work that way for adults? No! Do you get to leave the office in the middle of the day and tell your boss "If you need me I'll be on the slide?" Hell no! It's so unfair.

#9 No extras with your food

Special "Prizes" in your breakfast food, happy meal toys, etc, all a part of life when you're a kid. Do we get a free bonus gift at the drive through? No we get the option to "buy" something extra (Shrek Collectors cup $4.99) and do what with it? Give it to the kid in the backseat.

#8 Winter Sucks

As a kid: "Snow day! School's closed yay!" As an adult: "Crap! Can't get to work; boss is gonna be pissed; gonna be behind on my work; get to spend the day injuring myself shoveling stupid snow."

#7 Summer Sucks

Summer vacation really needs to apply to the rest of us!

#6 Halloween Sucks

Dressing up in a costume and having people give you free stuff only really works for kids at Halloween and strippers working their way through college. For the rest of us, we are forced to buy our own peanut butter cups.

#5 Christmas Sucks

When you're a kid you just wake up and open presents; as an adult you wake up after a couple of hours of sleep after spending the nigh trying to keep injuries and loud profanity to a minimum while attempting to assemble that great surprise gift.

#4 Kid Food is way Better that Grown-up Food

Just take a look at the cereal isle; our cereal is high in fiber while the kid cereal is high in marshmallow. "Hey this one is good for your heart, and that one has a full daily serving of BLA, BLAH, BLAH! Who cares!?! This one is a great source of marshmallows shaped like ghosts." Why do I have to get the weird look at the check-out counter when I'm getting my Coco Puff on; should I not be allowed to enjoy some fruity pebbles just because I'm not Six? And another thing, as if I don't feel enough shame when I'm buying Spaghetti-O's, why do they make the ones with cartoon shapes cheaper so that for the sake of a bargain I have to feel awkward as they ring up my "Dora The Explorer" special pasta with meatballs!?!

#3 Pointless Tasks are Required

Whether it's stupid paperwork your boss makes you do, taxes, banking, or trying to flesh out a Top Ten List when you can really only think of Nine, pointless tasks are a part of everyday life for the average adult.

#2 People Judge you for Just Wanting to Eat Cereal and Watch Cartoons

No I don't smoke pot! I just like Captain Crunch and bugs Bunny! Is that a crime?

#1 And of course Work Sucks!

Everyone hates their job. Don't believe the people who say "I just love my job!" Those are the ones who eventually snap and come in shooting. If you are reading this at work (shame on you, you lazy bastard do some work) I say, enough! Don't let the kids have all the fun; tell your boss that if he/she needs anything you'll be on the swings, and go to recess!

Will Facebook Game Shows beat HQ Trivia

The HQ Trivia app has been on a steady climb in popularity over the last year. The concept is great and understandably popular. It's the world of professional game shows made available to everyone. Not only can you compete in a real live game show on your phone, but you can win real money. The app has sponsors like Nike allowing them to shell out large amounts of winnings to trivia winners. It's simple, get 12 questions correct, get paid. Payments are maid through Paypal and average $10-$12 per winner. This isn't exactly going to pay the mortgage, but getting actual money to play a game on your phone is a pretty sweet deal. Hq Trivia stocks have continued to rise, but Facebook looks to stop that. Let's be real. This is what Facebook does. They are not an innovative companny. they are an opportunistic company that allows others to innovate and then take their ideas and improve on them. Remember MySpace? The fact is that Zuckerberg has never come up with anything origin...

How to Increase Strength: The Best Exercises

Strength training is important for athletes of all kinds and anyone interested in fitness and overall health. It's important to know what exercises are best for your fitness goals. Some workouts are best for burning calories others for building muscle and some are designed for adding strength and endurance. Here are some of the best exercises to increase strength. Increase Arm Strength Twenty-Ones for stronger biceps: One of the best bicep workouts, twenty-ones push your arms to their limits. Begin with dumbbells that are a challenging weight but not too heavy (you're going to have to do 21 reps.) First perform a standard curl, but stop half way and hold for a second. Lower and repeat for 7 reps. On the last rep, hold at the halfway point and then do 7 reps the rest of the way up toward your shoulders. Don't let the weights drop below the halfway point. You are doing half reps at the bottom and then the top. Next bring the weights a...

13 Reasons Why Season 3. Will it Happen? Why it Shouldn't

13 Reasons Why was a compelling story both as a book and a Netflix Original Series. Season 2 hit the streaming service May 2018 to a divided audience. Fans of the series have been waiting to see what happens next, but some people (like the author of this post) feel that follow ups work against what was great about the original. What really made season one stand out was the heavy reality of the story and the finality of the end. Watching the series finale left me with lasting effects creating an impact no TV show has before. Throughout the series you get to know Hannah Baker and grow to love her character. You know how her life comes to an end, but, much like suicidal people in real life, can't imagine that she would do that. The whole story is about showing you that everyone has struggles we don't understand, and that every action has a consequence. As I watched the series, I expected a plot twist where she wasn't really dead and it was all someone's hospital bed fe...
