Adults. What are those?

Subs take it up the butt
This has been bugging me for a long time and I need to vent about it. Ever since I was a kid, I was raised to be a proper adult when I grew up, meaning but not limited to:
* Writing with proper spelling and grammar.
* Being on time.
* Fulfill your responsibilities.
* Clean up after yourself.
* Be kind to others.
* Help around the house.
* Fill out forms properly.
* Be responsible with your money.
* Ect etc etc....
As a now near middle age adult, I think everything I was taught was a bunch of bullshit. You already know my beef I have with my stepdad. In short, he won't replace the garbage bags in the bins and will leave trash around because it's "not his job" and he'll leave a cup or two in the sink overnight whereas he used to give me grief for it if I did the same thing. Gives us shit for leaving the lights on, but it's ok when he does it. Blah blah blah, this is just a small sample and this journal is not about him. What this journal IS about are the so called adults (or Boomers for the most part) that don't practice what they preach. Everyday, I see these older adults never filling out stuff properly at my bank job and them getting mad when you have them fill out a new form. Ask for ID? They'll clutch their pearls as if you asked them to sacrifice their first born child. Driving? They'll break whatever rules of the road that exist cause fuck you, they got places to be! Scammed by that Nigerian prince? They'll insist that it's not a scam.
Continuing this further, we were always chided for throwing a tantrum if we didn't get what we wanted as kids. Nowadays, you see grown ass men and women stabbing people or shooting the place up because the McDonald's ran out of nuggets or running to corporate to bitch about an employee that's following the rules. We got these grown ass people causing a scene when they make a commotion over their finances when they are the ones being irresponsible with their money. We got mother fucking adults who would rather piss and moan and be petty and not use the words instead of being a GOD DAMN ADULT and communicating their feelings!
And people wonder why I am so disillusioned with everything.

I also think it's basically a case of projection or outright hypocrisy for some. They see someone else making mistakes? Shame them! But don't look at us when we make mistakes. In fact, everyone just close your eyes when we do it. Clearly you people making mistakes is worse than us making the same damn mistakes we berate you for.
I do feel the same about things, it’s just crazy how far we have fallen with social interaction, along with letting our emotions drive us.
