21 Times People Were Absolutely Clueless On How To Adult

We all aren't perfect. That's a fact.

We all don't know how to do everything. That's just impossible.

But at a certain age, we're all expected to be able to handle some things without too much difficulty to be considered full-fledged adults. These things include being able to cook a simple meal, being able to do our own laundry, being able to navigate simple directions and things like that.

By knowing how to do those simple things, people can consider you as an independent human being who doesn't need their parents to keep cleaning up after them. Unfortunately, though, not everyone reaches adulthood fully equipped with those skills.

While a lot of us were taught by our parents how to do these things, some people didn't have the opportunity to do so. Some might have been born with a silver spoon but others might have been a little too sheltered.

No matter what the reason is, there are people in this world who reach adulthood being a little clueless. Want to find out what some of the most ridiculous things people did not know how to do that made other people go "How do you not know how to do this?"

These are all a little bit horrifying but we have to understand that maybe these people weren't blessed with people who would educate them on the stuff. Plus, some of them might not have been blessed with the best common sense.

The best we can do in these situations is to be the teachers who will make life easier and simpler for them. At least they're learning, right?
