I'm at that age (32) where it's neither a compliment nor an insult to be carded. It's nice to know I still look young, but at the same time I don't wanna be lumped in with those goofy young whippersnappers!
Fear is the mind-killer.

I'm 25, but I think I look young for my age. If you put aside places that ID everyone (e.g., nightclubs), as well as places that don't ID me because they know who I am (e.g., the bar across the street from my office), right now it's about a 50/50 chance that I'll get asked for ID if I buy alcohol. Maybe it helps that I usually drink wine... underage drinkers generally aren't going to order a nice glass of Merlot.

Some other observations/thoughts:

* On Cape Cod (Massachusetts), they almost never ask for my ID. I guess it's because everyone is so laid back there.

* I've never been asked to show ID at a movie. One time the lady selling tickets asked if we were 17 or older, and when I politely told her our ages, she got embarassed and apologized.

* While flying first class (don't be jealous--they were all upgrades--you think I'd actually pay those fares?), I've never been asked for ID when I've ordered a drink. Come to think of it, I was underage every single time. mr.green

* I've never been asked for ID when I've purchased something with the "Parental Advisory" sticker. One time (I think it was when I bought the Three Chains o' Gold video) the sales clerk asked if I was over 16... I said yes and asked if she needed ID, but she said no.

* Don't ask whether I'm over 21 and then ask to see ID. If you're not going to accept my word, then just ask for my ID.

* Don't ask for my "driver's license" unless I'm renting a car. My ability to drive is irrelevant to whether or not I'm old enough to purchase and drink adult beverages.
Please note: effective March 21, 2010, I've stepped down from my prince.org Moderator position.
