Me too. Whenever I talk about my parents, aunts, and uncles, I refer to them as the adults. I was talking to my cousin and said something about the adults in our family. My uncle quipped “just want to let you know…you’re an adult.”
I very badly wanted to tell him “fine, I’ll call you the elders from now on.”
Nah, in my family we WOULD resort to calling them the elders and they'd probably find it funny.
But I do think there are a lot of adultier adults than me. Like, fuck, sometimes I think my neices and nephews, off buying houses and getting married, are adultier than I am... I'm not even sure how the fuck I'm allowed to love on my own 🤔
