Why’d you have to go and make things so complicated
Manage episode 486669267 series 3635682
Was Avril Lavigne right - is life just too complicated? In Episode 20, Danielle and Cheryl realize that in their 30s, they were just training to be an adult. Now, it’s go time. At this age, we have mortgages, kids, aging parents, career changes, ever-changing bodies, and the constant challenge of making everyone happy. A wise friend once explained that it’s because we’re trying to make everyone happy no one ends up being happy, while another mentioned that everyone wants change but no one’s actually implementing it. So here Danielle and Cheryl are, craving the simplicity of what they learned back in the day – getting out of quicksand (a skill they thought would play a bigger role in their adult lives than it actually has), playing the recorder, and square dance do-si-do-ing. They also touch upon modern complications like email hacking, 15-character passwords, two-step authentications, and how no one actually mails mail anymore.
