Eh, not everybody hates being an adult. I love having my own money to spend on video games as I want, not having to wait on a birthday or Christmas, even then only as a maybe because my family was poor. I also feel like I have plenty of time to play video games. The secret is to just not have kids. I work 40 hours a week AND am in college and still feel like I have plenty of time for my hobbies, which is gaming when I want it to be. I've been working through my backlog and have completed 30 games this year. I don't know, being an adult is pretty cool when you aren't blinded by nostalgia and don't care about having kids. 🤷

My childhood was also pretty depressing between the growing up in poverty and being LGBT growing up in a deep south US, religious home. So give me adulthood any day of the week.
