re: What's the simplest thing you've had to explain to a full grown adult?

I just don't understand how some people make it so far without knowing basic shite. I can understand not having to learn some stuff, but do you not get curious and want to learn at some point?

I could cook for myself when I was 8. I was doing my own laundry and mowing the lawn at 11. Not because I had to but because I was genuinely curious about the world and wanted to learn.
