Adult szn is that stretch of time when life piles on the grown-up stuff all at once — tax deadlines, lease renewals, insurance paperwork, and suddenly everyone around you is engaged or buying homes. It's less a fixed calendar date and more a cultural mood that descends when the universe decides you've had enough fun. Used ironically by people who feel blindsided by the realities of adulthood, adult szn signals collective suffering with a dash of dark humour about how no one actually feels prepared for any of this.
Car broke down, dentist bill arrived, and my landlord raised the rent — it's fully adult szn right now.
