So I'm legally an adult now. About time, too. Liqour hellholes, cheap hookers and seedy casinos, here I come!

ThreeOhFour

Liquor and casinos aren't worth it, man!

Hookers... well, a guy has to have some fun, I guess!

As someone who has done the 18 thing, allow me to give piece of advice: It kicks ass!

;D

Second piece of advice: Get some I.D! You don't just instantly look older now! I get people who come into my shop to buy an 18 rated game and act surprised that I'm asking for I.D since they turned 18 last week, and  clearly look like an adult now.

Happy birthday fella. I didn't realise you were so young.
I'm 25 and I only went to my first casino about 6 weeks ago... and I've yet to sample the delights of a STD-ridden crack-whore, but I'm sure when the time comes the warts will more than make up for the rashes.

When I was under 18 game shops were so much moe relaxed about selling 18-rated games to minors... my mate bought Grand Theft Auto with no problems... but it was his dad that made him take it back and own up to being underage... hahahaha... unlucky.

Holy crap I'm older than you?! I've been 18 since Jan...
Not to mention that I went into my first casino when I was 7, and I'm Mormon!!

Stupot, in leicester, a fair few years back, this videogame shop manager actually got fined over a grand for mistakenly selling an 18 rated game to someone under 18.

So I have to be very careful!

Akatosh

So getting ripped off in seedy casinos isn't actually an integral part of adulthood? Aww, poo. Anyway, thanks, I'm having a nice birthday so far.  ;)

Don't worry, I've had some I.D. since I turned 16. A lot of places are really strict in terms of age restrictions over here, so you more or less have to get it as soon as possible.

Darth Mandarb

I vaguely remember turning 18 ...

The very next year they introduced this new invention called the Wheel!!!

Anyway ... happy birthday!

Two Pieces of Advice from the Wise and Elderly Darth:
1) Just remember ... now when you beat up the hookers you can go to jail for it.  You are, after all, an adult.
2) Being an adult doesn't automatically make you man.  That you must earn.

I have spoken ;)

I could just imagine you unzipping your flies ominously as you said that...

Happy B-day.

Well, I can't really remember my 18th either. I didn't have a party or something and I didn't do anything afterwards that I haven't done before (I'm not a fan of casinos).

Reagarding the ID-Thingy:

A few month ago I was asked for my ID when buying some BEER. I did that with 14, it's legal with 16 and I'm 24. Well, that woman was quite surprised when looking at my ID, but, well, I guess she was just being careful..

Nostradamus

Welcome to the first day of the rest of your life.

Soon you're gonna start the REAL life. You know, the part with responsbility, the one where you have to earn money for a living, do stuff you don't wanna do, basically the part of life that is crappy. Wave those years of irresponsibile no worry childhood goodbye!!

Also being able to drink legally... *ahem*  ::)   is great. I'm sure you haven't drank, smoked a cigarette or had sex before.  :=

At this point masturbating starts getting frustrating when before it was exciting, and it's all downhill from there. Happy birfday!

Gamble, my young friend, whatever it is gamble...

abstauber

In case you've got a drivers license, it's probably the last chance to get drunk in the next few month. Because now you're cursed to drive all your friends who got 18 before and had to drive you ;D
Happy B-Day!

And since you're now credit-worthy, gambling might be good idea :)

kaputtnik

I was not aware of the fact that when entering a brothel they actually ask for your ID. Do they really? Other than that, my only advice is: Vote the crap out of them!
I, object.

The Suitor

Happy Birthday, man!

It kills me that just about every other country you only have to be 18 to buy booze. In America it's 21, not that I'm complaining now. But I had to wait so long to buy my own booze.

Oliwerko

Happy B-Day man!

I'm 18 since the 6th of October, so we're pretty much peers.
Actually, I see absolutely no change when being an adult.
I didn't buy/do things that are against the law when you're U/18, so things are still the same, no change.
As for the IDs, we have to get IDs when 15, so there is no big "ID change" when you are an adult. Conclusion = no change. Well...maybe one. I'm going to have my driving license done before christmas.

18's a good age to be. In my country I'm legally an adult and can do anything and everything by myself.

I finish school forever in a few weeks, so I feel your excitement :D Can't wait for finals to be over, I'm going to party like a rockstar.

That reminds me, I should get back to studying now ... :/

It's really nothing special. Just an average day apart from every person you really don't care for talking to you and the people who'd maybe count having forgotten. So move a long, stuff will come to you, you don't have to go find it right now.
I used to make games but then I took an IRC in the knee.

<Calin> Ishmael looks awesome all the time
