Does the last day of school before break make students extra-stupid or something? Because, ISTG, the number who have wandered into my lab today and asked if we have a printer while standing right next to the printer is just stunning. Especially when it's the first thing they see coming in the door. (If they even got so far as "is this printer okay for everyone to use", I'd understand. But...)

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Whether it was because I looked my age or not, he still should have carded, it's state law.
Huh? I rarely get carded in WI.

Oh! I saw that this morning, Nora, and I was like, "This is different than any other thing? I mean, really. DUMB."

The law in my state says anyone under 35 must be carded for alcohol. And while you are not required to card those over 35, if you sell them alcohol without an ID its against the law.
This is what I found on Yahoo. Seems kind of like a catch-22 to me.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I usually won't get carded (well, I also rarely drink, so that might explain it), but when I get on the bus and asking for bus pass the drivers will assume I'm under 18, which get discount.
Being me, I correct them (23), and pay the full price (unless I get a student discount). I don't want to get a discount I don't deserve, and there are plenty of other ways I can screw society with. Lying isn't one of them.
However, I do have the urge to do something stupid these days and acting my age. I'm just too tired to do so, and well, kindda behind in Natter...

Um, Facebook didn't ruin your relationship, Facebook clued you in to the fact that you were dating an asshole.

Our wings are not tired.
When I buy wine at the grocery store I tease the clerk about not bothering to even glance at me.
I'm 54 now. I was carded past the age of 40, but my age shows more lately. In February I'll be able to move to an adult community.
As a youngster I asked an elderly friend what is was like to be old. She said she felt the same as she did when she was my age; it was the way other people treated her that had changed.
