Here's everything you need to know about being grown up: Nobody cares, and you're on your own.

If you're a kid and eat a trash diet, skip school, don't take your medicines...... someone will care. As an adult you could literally go outside in your underwear in the rain right now and eat mud and no one will stop you. As long as you're not hurting other people or breaking their things, no one cares. As an adult no one cares if you eat cake for 3 meals a day, spend all your money on Funkopops and refuse to ever shower or get a job.......and as much as kids might think this is a good thing, it actually really sucks.

If only this were true. Far too many people seem to care rather a lot about stuff that shouldn't matter at all to them.

While not caring about the things that should matter to them

Well some people do care, they just can't stop you from living like that.

I have friends and family who are struggling and live like that and I'd like to help them if I could.

My wife would care.

Your doctor will care, but that would mean someone doing this stuff is actually going to one.
