I’m baffled by those posts by kids marveling that anyone over 25 would be on tumblr. they don’t offend me, they just raise all sorts of questions. like, what IS tumblr, in their eyes? and why do they think it’s so inherently youthful? do they consider it fun and silly and thus not suitable for “old people” who must eschew all fun silly things? or do they think it’s an idiotic waste of time and thus not of interest to adults with “adult interests” who spend their time seriously and substantively? 

cuz i got news either way: adulthood is just as dumb and pointless as youth was. as an adult, you will need silly, stupid shit to distract you from your suffering just as much as you did before – probably more so! if you think you’ll magically turn into a serious person who has their shit together and isn’t amused by inanities, think again. you’ll still laugh at dumb memes when you’re 40, i’m sorry to tell you. this is it – for better or worse, adult-you will still be you.
