Well, you need some really big stairs.
Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In college, I used to use a friend's license to get in to bars...except it turned out some of the bouncers knew her. Oops.
I have avoided towering rages by not going in to work today. So far, so good.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I went to McGill. I know not of these shenanigans of which you speak.

The drinking age is 18? I still would have had a semester of trouble.

I hung out at Molly Malone's on Fairfax (Los Angeles) for years, without ever getting carded (this was late 80's). The folks who ran the bar were thrilled that I chose Molly's as my birthday party venue----they loved when regulars did that----until I told them it was my 21st birthday. Whoooops!

At one bar the bouncer said she was underage and that he was going to confiscate her drivers license. I had to explain that since it was after midnight it had now become the "next day" so she was therefore legal.
I had a bouncer try to put a big X on my hand. I put my hands behind my back and made my friend show him her watch, we had deliberately waited until 12:15 so there would be no issues.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Shoot, not like my birthday changes when my license expires. Geeeze.
Tell that to ABC, because they're the ones who set the rules that all ID must be current and that everyone in the bar must be of age and have ID on them. It's a fine and a strike if that's not complied with. So, it sucks that you got kicked out, but I understand where the bar was coming from.
I had a fake SoDak ID that I got for free, since I let the dude copy my AK license (which was still the laminated kind).

Pshaw. No problem. Most of your degree on the other hand? Unpossible.
McGill is the university that gave coupons for pitchers of beer to blood donors--no carding there. Pretty sure that they didn't card in the campus bars either. Don't remember it coming up and I did hang out with people who started university a full year early.
