19 Times Zooey Deschanel GIFs Got The Everyday Struggle Of Being An Adult Just Right
Legally, the "authorities" claim that you're a certifiable adult at the age of 18. Which is ridiculous, because you can't even drink a lick of alcohol until three years after that. But even at 21, you don't consider yourself an adult. You certainly don't act like an adult (if your parents' laments are any indicator). But... you are. Because America is all sorts of crazy and they've given you that kind of sublime responsibility. But you're having problems just making your own lunch these days.
Here are some GIFs of the most endearing child-like adult, Zooey Deschanel, nailing what it feels like trying to be a real life grown up.
Key word: trying.
