LOL! I bought beer at a 7-11 store one day when I was about age 44. New
first day on the job clerk asked me for my ID. I said, "hahaha Good one!
You're kidding, right?" I really thought he *was* kidding.

Well he wasn't kidding, seemed offended that I said that, and insisted on my
ID.

So I showed him my ID and told him, "If you think I look that young, you
just made my day!" ;-D
