When I was a kid I thought adults knew stuff and had life figured out. I grew up to realize that no one knows shit.

Same. Grown ups have all the answers. Until I became one and learned there are 3 types of grownups: -people who think they have the answers and think you are the dumbass -people who know they don't know stuff and only sometimes think you are the dumbass -people who don't know stuff, don't know what they don't know, could not give a crap about what they should know and you are in their way.

Bah! I had everything figured out by 15! Stupid adults would never listen.
