Being an adult these days seems to be staring at a medium-sized screen all day, then coming home to stare at a small screen whilst the big screen is on in the background 🙄🙄🙄

Being an adult is sitting on a chair while staring at medium screens all day. After work, you sit on the couch, staring at a little screen while a big screen is on in the background.
