They don't even check my ID anymore 😢

Yup places will just ask for my date of birth now, if they even bother to do that at all.

I'm 37 and have a long beard. I agree the bears helps convincing I'm old enough. But I remember I was offended I got asked my ID all the time. "Do I really look that young? When are people going to take me seriously as an adult!" Now that I'm never asked anymore, I feel old.

I feel like if someone shows up at a bar with multiple bears, they deserve a free drink no matter their age.

Why do I never meet people like you... Normally I get bashed for a typo but I would love to get free beer instead.
