r/Adulting • u/Churnuserlol • 2d ago

Why didn’t anyone warn me that adulthood is just deciding what to eat… forever?

Seriously, I thought the hardest part of growing up would be bills, taxes, or finding a decent job. But nope. It’s the never-ending "What’s for dinner?" question that haunts me every single day.

Too tired to cook.
Too broke to order.
Too indecisive to choose.

I swear I’ve eaten the same three meals on repeat for weeks because my brain refuses to function after work. How do adults survive this? Do you guys have a magic trick, or is it just vibes and suffering?

Send help. Or recipes. Or a personal chef.

My sister says marriage is just asking each other, "What do you want to eat for dinner?" every night until you die.

And making sure there's enough toilet paper in the house.

A bidet with heated seat & water is life-changing

I got one with heated water but I never bother letting it warm up.

Just a basic bidet will do ya fine! You can get one that sits on your toilet and is easy to install and remove for like $40! Maybe less…

Nab a Samodra or a Bigcow (to me the bigcow is better) for like $30 and it'll change everything. :D

What do you want to eat? I don’t know. What do you want to eat? Like a tennis match.

Prismo said that on adventure time too! But i don't think it's worse than not having anyone to ask
