Reminds of the time I woke up from a dead nap (probably 4 hours long) ran downstairs to my dad, got mad at him that he didn’t tell me what time the movie was and went back upstairs to bed like a big cranky toddler.
I was 18…we were never planning to see a movie that day lol
As I've gotten older as an adult I've come full circle to disliking naps again for the sole reason that it fucks up my sleep schedule.
Also I got sleep apnea and since most naps I've ever taken in my life are accidental, the naps aren't refreshing cause I wasn't able to put on my CPAP first.
Do they really help? If a car window blows air at my face I kinda freak out. I breathe but it’s uncomfortable and I want to get away. It’s too much and I highly dislike it. We’re also talking about the car going 40 mph. Nothing extreme.
Oh yes! It really does help! BUT, I had to get anti anxiety meds from my doctor to be able to use mine for the first month. I would put my mask on, I use a low profile nasal pillow, and instantly have a panic attack. I would yank that thing off my face so fast. If I hadn’t had help from meds, I would have never used it.
This is the correct answer. As an adult, nap time is a wondrous luxury that you don't get to enjoy regularly. But as kids, we whine about it and take it for granted.
is coffee milk a new england thing? i grew up in massachusetts & when i was in elementary school they served it at lunch (u could even get it heated up if u wanted) but whenever i mention it to other people they look at me like im crazy.
I've recently come around to coffee.
I don't drink it on the daily, but if someone offers, I won't object to a cup. In the past I would say "no, I'd like water instead."
My kind of person. I know SO MANY people who say they hate them. But I'll sit there and force them to try some and almost everyone ends up loving them. Just gotta know how to make them. They're amazing
The taste better now actually than they did in the past because effort has been spent to improve the qualities of the plant, removed most of the bitterness
If I had a nickel for every person that tried to force me to try brussel sprouts 'their' way...they are not amazing. They are gross, and I don't like them. And as an adult, I don't have to eat them if I don't want to. And if you continue to harass me about it, we just won't be dining together again.
Well, you didn't try MY way yet, that's gonna change your whole take on brussels sprouts, you're gonna love it, I swear it, everybody loves them after they tried MY recipe!!!!
But seriously, my game changing brussel sprouts experience was roasting them and mixing them with pecan, maple syrup and bacon. I will say that I love it, I won't make you eat it. Promise.
Chores and Errands. As an adult now I'm like "Hell yeah, I'm being productive today!" and it's more fun when I'm doing it with my boyfriend (soon to be husband)
Looking at nature. I used to hate "stupid" family trips to places like the Grand Canyon, Sedona, Sequoia, flower fields, botanical gardens, etc... Now that is my JAM. Thankfully my kids don't hate it anywhere near as much as I did so they tolerate it. Now I just gotta get them to actually enjoy it.
Agreed! Whenever I eat out for breakfast and one of the sides options is fruit, I always ask what the fruit is. If they say melon, I just think cheap bastards and their stupid filler fruit! I want berries man!
We had a cat when I was growing up that was unintentionally toilet trained and his main treat he would get was cantaloupe. Simba loved cantaloupe, spicy pork rinds, and Popsicles.
Miss him everyday. He was a 20 lb menace who fucked with not only the neighbors husky, and my moms boyfriends St. Bernard. He would perch on the couch and hit him everytime he walked by and then gave him a look like 'You bite me, you and Ol Yeller are gonna have a lot in common. Fuck off, this is my house.'
I liked politics until majoring in politics sci (as a part time female bartender). Sooo many people (read-older white men) would sit down at my bar, ask me my major, assume my beliefs, and immediately start an argument with me.
Granted, their assumptions were normally correct, but I’m just trying to work man, not argue with you about basic human rights.
Doing nothing. I always had to be entertained or occupied. If I had to sit still and have nothing to watch or do, time felt like it took forever.
Now? Now I dream of doing nothing. The unending pleasure of just sitting there, no noise, nothing to worry about. Just relaxing. It's beautiful
“It’s a Wonderful Life”
I remember HATING this movie as a kid when my family would watch it at Christmas. To me, it was just some boring old black and white movie that didn’t have anything shiny or exciting. Now, as an adult, it’s my favorite Christmas movie, and I think George Bailey is one of the most well-written characters in fiction. The ending makes me choke up every time I watch it now.
pickles on a maccas cheeseburger. absolutely divine, perfect crunch with perfect saltiness. makes the burger so good.
when i was a kid, i used to peel them off with disgust and hand them to my dad. he was pretty upset the first time i just ate the burger without hesitation.
there’s a lot, but mainly spicy foods. my parents used to joke that even milk was too spicy for me. i’d like it to be known that i have never said that 😂. but after i left at 17, it’s like a switch was flipped and all i ate was spicy food for several months. i love everything spicy now, and the only thing so far that has been “too spicy” was a 2x spicy buldak ramen, i swear i hallucinated.
Cantaloupe
Hated it as a kid, tasted like soap.
Now, can eat a whole one, peeled and cut of course.
Sweet Queens, Sugar Queens, farmers market people sell me something, ha!
Invader Zim. Actually, I wasn’t a kid when it came out, I was a teen, but I couldn’t get into that show…that is until years later, when Enter the Florpus was out for a while and it was on Netflix. I decided to watch it and I actually enjoyed it, so I gave the rest of the series a chance, and now I’m a fan. I have one of the more recent Gir hoodies that was released at Hot Topic, and I’m going to wear it as my Halloween costume this year, paired with plain black pants. I am going to wear a shirt underneath, especially since the zipper is so comically big that it slides down a little. I don’t need perverted guys staring at my…well…you know.
Beans…. still ate them because I wasn’t given a choice in our Mexican home lol so I would add queso fresco to help with the taste… I still eat them this way lol buut I love it and of course gotta have a good chile de molcajete
Reality TV shows. i used to think they were so lame and my mom watched them all the time, but now i actually enjoy the cheesy exaggeration in many of the shows. cooking reality tv specifically, like Bar Rescue or Master Chef
Drinking water. Sensitive to the taste of it, hardly drank plain water when I was a kid until we had a quality filter installed. And only in the past five years did I start to really enjoy hydrating myself with water consistently throughout the day.
* Broccoli. I HATED broccoli as a kid. Now I have to have fresh broccoli (not cooked, I still don't like it) a few times a week.
* Brussels Sprouts: BUT, they have to be the way my mom makes them, roasted in the oven with salt and a little bit of olive oil. My mom adds something else, but I don't remember what it is, but her method is amazing. No one else's sprouts come close.
Going to bed early and staying in.
Staying in on a Saturday is the closest thing to pure euphoria you can feel.
Laundry, grocery shopping, sitting in the sun with a book, and cooking a home made meal on a Friday or Saturday is literally my heaven
Nap time.
My issue with naps as an adult is that I will accidentally nap for 3 hours and wake up confused
For me it’s not that I wake up confused… I just wake up angry that I have to get up instead of roll over
Reminds of the time I woke up from a dead nap (probably 4 hours long) ran downstairs to my dad, got mad at him that he didn’t tell me what time the movie was and went back upstairs to bed like a big cranky toddler. I was 18…we were never planning to see a movie that day lol
I yelled at my stepdad, thinking I slept through school the next morning and missed a field trip.
Ok now I’m the confused one. 😅
What year is it?!
Uh…3057?
Imagine... the boss " alright people its 1:00...you know what that means... nap time"
As I've gotten older as an adult I've come full circle to disliking naps again for the sole reason that it fucks up my sleep schedule. Also I got sleep apnea and since most naps I've ever taken in my life are accidental, the naps aren't refreshing cause I wasn't able to put on my CPAP first.
This happened to me today. I was just watching tv and fell asleep without my cpap. I felt like hammered shit when I woke up.
Do they really help? If a car window blows air at my face I kinda freak out. I breathe but it’s uncomfortable and I want to get away. It’s too much and I highly dislike it. We’re also talking about the car going 40 mph. Nothing extreme.
Oh yes! It really does help! BUT, I had to get anti anxiety meds from my doctor to be able to use mine for the first month.

Naps with a cat can't be beat!
sorry gotta go with dogs on this one - my dogs never put their butthole on my face while sleeping
came here to say this, saw it, and was sad for all of us.
This is the correct answer. As an adult, nap time is a wondrous luxury that you don't get to enjoy regularly. But as kids, we whine about it and take it for granted.
I don’t like naps, it feels like a waste a time

Loved Coffee Milk ( From Rhode Island) just learned last week it has Caffeine... Dr said I would be 6'2 ... at 5"8 I blame you coffee milk
is coffee milk a new england thing? i grew up in massachusetts & when i was in elementary school they served it at lunch (u could even get it heated up if u wanted) but whenever i mention it to other people they look at me like im crazy.
I grew up in NH and am upset that I completely missed out on this, lol
I've recently come around to coffee. I don't drink it on the daily, but if someone offers, I won't object to a cup. In the past I would say "no, I'd like water instead."
I liked coffee when I was a kid, but stopped liking it when I got older.

Trips to Home Depot.
This!
Wow yes! I remember dreading Home Depot trips. Now it’s like an adult playground 🤣
Every time I go to home depot. I think of the scene in The Wire where snoop buys a nail gun.
Chores and Errands. As an adult now I'm like "Hell yeah, I'm being productive today!" and it's more fun when I'm doing it with my boyfriend (soon to be husband)
I love this. Get you a partner who makes grocery shopping fun. 💖
I never understood why adults loved going to spas as a kid and a teen but now? Man, I can fall asleep within 15 minutes of a good massage.
I can fall asleep withing 15 minutes of just about anything. Except bedtime.

Do you need an adult?
Cantaloupe
As an adult… I hate cantaloupe lol. I’m not a picky eater either, but cantaloupe and honeydew are gross to me.
Good that means more for me then.
Haha that’s what my husband says too
There's a special place in hell for the sick fucks that make fruit salad with most of it consisting of those shitty things.
Agreed! Whenever I eat out for breakfast and one of the sides options is fruit, I always ask what the fruit is. If they say melon, I just think cheap bastards and their stupid filler fruit! I want berries man!
Most foods are palatable to me but that and Lima beans just don't work with my brain chemistry

Tools. Tools meant work and I was a somewhat lazy kid but now I geek out on good tools.
Fish
Politics. Excruciating as a kid but I’m majoring in Government now.
[удалено]
I totally agree. I used to like politics and then I realized it’s something that makes people hate me and that’s just annoying
People are starting to realize that that stakes can get pretty high. Also a very vocal part of the population in my nation are in a cult.

“Chores.” There’s nothing better than a clean house and made bed to climb into and get a good nights rest. My FOMO is missing out on sleep in my bed 🤣

Working out and eating healthy. Something about gut biomes or habits just makes it... feel right.
