TRUE STORY: ‘Adulting’ calendars reward grown-ass adults with stickers

So THIS is a thing.


When something like this that goes so wrong on Amazon, leave it to The New York Post to get it oh-so right.


Hi — have you “adulted” yet today? Did you pay some bills? Show up to work on time? Schedule that annoying doctor’s appointment?
Cool! Now, did anybody give you a sticker?
No? Then congratulations! You’re a functioning grown-ass human who doesn’t expect daily rewards for getting your s–t done.

I mean, is it time to stop using sticker charts for my four year-old? Is he going to be so dependent on receiving a sticker every time he does something he should be doing in the first place that he's going to grow into an adult who needs a sticker every time he poops in the toilet or eats a salad? I mean, I do love me a good "I Voted" sticker, but for reals. If I got a sticker every time I took my meds...well, I'll just leave that one right there.


What's next for this questionable generation? Professional hobbyhorsing?



What a time to be alive.
