Reactions To Adult Life All '90s Kids Understand

There are certain inevitable moments in life that, as adults, most of us will experience: That first big home repair, looking for another job, buying a new car. But every time these very adult things happen, part of me still feels like a kid — and I react as such, perfectly exemplified by these hilarious '90s GIFs. "What do you mean, I need a new car battery? They just replaced this one eight years ago." "I have to get a pap every year? What do they think is hiding up there?!" "I just found $10 in an old purse. Let's go out and I'll buy you something pretty." There's always something.

"Adulting," as we've so affectionately coined the term as of late, is no easy task, especially when the '90s child inside all of us is crying for Nickelodeon and Bagel Bites. Gone are the simple days of Oregon Trail and playing outside until the street lights came on; they've been replaced with bills, learning how to wash delicates, and trying to remember the last time you washed your sheets. (The answer to that last one, by the way, is usually, "way too long ago.")

Well into our 30s, certain life experiences still surprise us, reminding us that we're grown-ups and probably shouldn't be eating Pop Tarts for dinner anymore. (I do what I want. No shame.) The '90s live on in all of us, though, and these GIFs have our adult selves thinking, "Oh... dang... That's totally me."
