Adult Truths
everyday wisdom ^ | 10/16/2019 | multiple

1. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.

2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.

3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

6. Was learning cursive really necessary?

7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on # 5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.

9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.

10. Bad decisions make good stories.

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.

12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection...again.

13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page technical report that I swear I did not make any changes to.

14. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.

15. I think the freezer deserves a light as well.

16. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than Kay.

17. I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.

18. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.

19. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear or understand a word they said?

20. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent a jerk from cutting in at the front

My husband is an expert at folding fitted sheets - he learned the trick from his mom.

It’s still a mystery to me...

Numbers two and three are the best.

It’s incredible how babies and kids fight sleep.

I stuff the fitted sheet into a pillow case. Problem solved.

Thanks! Mostly true. I very much agree about obituaries, and usually the cause of death is not really a secret.

I do believe that our freezer (about a 20-year-old “side-by-side”) has it own light inside.

If you only own one fitted sheet, you’ll never have to fold it.

re #14: I just deleted a couple of ‘those’ phone numbers that had been in my phone for about a decade. LOL

6. Was learning cursive really necessary?

Yes! Your brain works better and thinks about language in a better way when you learn to write cursive. Same foes for learning a foreign language you are unlikely to use.

You fold a fitted sheet by nesting the points of the four corners inside each other. If you do it in the correct order, you have already got the sheet folded in quarters.

Hey, it's the only thing I know, so I'm faking the rest...

I want a “surface road” option for my car’s nav system. It invariably puts on on the nearest interstate, frequently making the drive longer.

“I think part of a best friend’s job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.”

Meh. A person should be doing it himself every time he shuts down his browser and/or his device. Only takes a few seconds.

Life is too short.
