'Harm's Way'
[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.
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.
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.
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.
Ha, what Brenda said about the Facebook thing.

I just chatted for the first time in AGES with one of my college roommies on Facebook and found out that she's pregnant again for the 2nd time. So Facebook wins in my book!
I am just amazed that this is not only stupid and wrong, but is considered actual journalism!
In other WTF news, oh dear.
Heh. I liked the author's tone and writing. Couple of things made me laugh out loud, yet she managed to not be particularly harsh.
Am 41, usually get pegged for mid-thirties, feel about my age. I think I'll probably feel this age for a long time; I'm comfortable in it.
I've looked basically same since I was 16 (give or take 15 or 20 pounds). People still think I'm 25.
