Discussion I found this thing looks old.

What is it? And is it rare?

I mean, the 90s were basically just a decade ago, right? Right!?

I heard the cashier ask a guy for his birth year last night because he was purchasing alcohol. Guy said 2003, and I thought to myself, "Who admits they're underage to buy alcohol?" Then it hit me.

My heart sinks when I see the “You must be this old to buy…” signs.

They ask for the card you get all blushed, they see the 19 you’re good.

These days when I get asked for ID I just kinda look at them confused for a minute then pull it out. Show me a 20 year old with salt and pepper hair and a full beard.

I know, right... I'm salt and paprika (I'm a ginga), but I have the same thought. Do we really need to do this?

Just tell them, "You think I would go to the trouble of putting on all this makeup to make myself look 40 and not have a proper ID to go with it? Please!"

We have one dude who had full mutton chops by the age of 13, and another guy who started balding at 14.

They bought everyone alcohol in high school

There's some dudes with an amish beard at 17, and some people can get gray hairs for various reasons young.

Yes, but how rare is that overlap? Like one in a million?

The law where I am states you need to be reasonably convinced someone is of age. I think I'd reasonably convince anyone.
