12 Indicators that you're becoming an adult.


1. You find a strange joy in flossing.

2. Stuff you wouldn't eat when you were a kid? They're your favourite foods now. All hail prawn sandwiches.

3. OMG I owe the tax office how much?!

4. You find yourself calculating the amount of years you have left until your biological clock explodes and the factory closes.

5. You quit your job, move to a country across the world and discover European beer.

6. You have a favourite cheese, a favourite wine, a favourite location to consume both in, and a cast of regulars to consume them with. You are officially one of those middle-class yuppy types.

7. Weekend benders leave you absolutely and irrevocably wrecked. Two years ago you could have survived the upcoming week with nothing more than a whiff of Berocca. Now you need a thirteen-hour sleep, four Panadeine Fortes, two dirty kebabs, and a small Asian lady to walk on your back.

8. The number of weddings you've been invited to outnumbers the amount of outfits you have to wear to them.

9. You worry about the Gen Z's who've grown up with Facebook. How will they develop social skills IRL? And what happens when they grow up and they've had their baby photos on facebook since the beginning of the interwebs?

10. You reminisce about the 90's in the same vein your grandma reminisces about the good old days. Nickelodeon! Tamagotchi's! Hypercolour shirts! The sound of dial-up! (Never forget)

11. You find yourself explaining the origins of the floppy disc symbol in Microsoft Word to your 11-year-old cousin.

12. You can't work out why everyone is losing their shit over Justin Bieber. Why?! (I just googled 'Justin Bieber pants down' so you won't ever have to.)
