> no one is actually an adult at the age of 25 despite those people wishing it were so. You do not have your shit figured out

Too strong.

You're an adult who doesn't have their shit figured out. Some people never get it figured out, others take into their 30s, 40s or even 50s.

And then in your 60s, you've got new shit to figure out.

Isn’t your brain still forming until you’re like… 26? It’s probably more correct to say that 25 year olds are children in that case. Other ages are mostly arbitrary.
