This happened to me last week and I meant to post it early. I'm still in mild shock and amused by it.
Last week, I was asked for I.D. while buy a pack of cigarettes.
Slightly taken aback I handed over some I.D. and pointed out that I was twenty-four. The woman said that they had to ask anyone that looks under twenty-five; it's a new thing to prevent binge-drinking. "Strange," I thought "You can't do much binge drinking with a pack of twenty Lambert & Butler [I'm a classy guy!]."
Am I so out of touch? You need to be 18 to buy ciggies now, when did that happen?! The problem would be easily solved by me stopping smoking, but I'm just not a quitter. Besides, will this happen now whenever I buy alcohol?
Laws can be silly.

You were only asked because you were with me, and the woman serving you knew me. Mind you, as you pointed out, how many teenagers have facial hair??
I am very upset to read that you still smoke. :( When you coming to visit????!!!!! I nay be homeless soon, LL seems to be in court next month over a small matter of Mortgage Repayments :s :s :s just when things start to go MY WAY!!!!!!!!
yes, I am very upset that he still smokes too.... just because I can get on my high horse about these things.... so there.... and get down and see her.... what else are you doing ;)
Alright, let's set this straight. I don't do drugs, I'm not a big drinker. Let me smoke. Come on, I accept you guys for who you are, why can't you guys accept me for this?
I for one only said it to wind you up, I was bored and stressed.... I don't mind if you smoke... plus accepting me for who I am is a big step... well done you ;)
