In the past couple of weeks, Ive been Id'd like it's going out of fashion

I went to the shop for wine Friday night, got ID'd by the same woman who has sold me alcohol on MANY an occassion, and she said OOH YOUR OLDER THAN ME YOU ARE, ARE YOU 27?! Fuck off -__-

I got id'd for painkillers last week, that's a new one, even for me

And about 5 minutes ago, some Jehovas witness woman at my door, asking me if I was stikll in SCHOOL, ooh you do look school age she said...I'm sure the MASSIVE spot on my chin does no justice but fuck me, SCHOOL AGE? Surely not :gonk:
 
I think I look younger than my age.

Though I'm still only young I guess.

I still get ID'd when I buy alcohol. I think it's due to me being so little.

Oh and Steve is 26 and he got ID'd at the bottlo too. :gasp:

People actually thought he was my age when we first got together. He's five years older than me too.

I think it's a good thing if you look heaps younger than you are. No doubt you'll look lovely when you hit your forties. XD

No doubt we'd be complaining if we didn't get our ID's checked. Then we'd be complaining that we look older than we should. >_<
 
I guess that would suck more, it just threw me when she said I looked liek a school girl haha, I am slobbing about with a massive spot hair scragged back and a hooded jumper though, all Id needed was a hat and she would of thought I was a 12 year old boy xD
 
OMG I just totally remembered something!

Once when I was working at my old job, I would have only just started and been around 17. Just left high school.

Anyway this lady was putting some clothes on layby for her girls. They were around size 10 to 12's in the girls section and I happened to mention to her that I had bought the same top that she had just put on layby.

She said, 'Oh do you have a girl too?'

I was like. 0_o First of all, do I look old enough to have a kid, let alone one that would fit into size 10 to 12 clothes? That would mean I would have a 10 year old, or round about that age and therefore I would have had to of had my kid when I was like seven. <_<

I just said, "Uh no, I bought it for me." 0_o

I think she was just stupid that lady.
 
NO I do not look my age at all. I look 4 years younger tbh. I dont know why but I do. I get it all the time. They say hey you look 17 or 18 instead of 20. Oh and LMAO Kandy. Someone once said that I was 17 and I said nah Im 19. This was a year ago. But she said you look 17. I said hmm but there really is no difference.
 
The simple answer to this question is no.

Whenever I meet someone for the first time and they ask how old I am, they think I'm about 17 when I'm now 20. Take my new roommates. They were in complete and utter shock that they thought I was the youngest one there. It seems that my height didn't even help in this situation, anyway, considering they're all midgets. xD

I almost always get asked for ID if I ever buy alcohol and also did when I started doing Euro Millions, but for that I don't now. And because I don't look my age, I ALWAYS have to carry ID around with me just in case.
 
Actually I look a bit younger than my age. I turn 15 in two months, but it's hard for me to belive i'm gonna 15 because I really don't look like it. I actually look like a sixth grader compared to most girls at my high school.XD
 
I don't know really. I don't look as old as some of the other people my age. I never really had impressive facial hair and it is only just starting to become proper now. So I guess on some days I could look younger.

I barely get asked for ID though, probably because I'm tall'ish. It could just be because of the people I tend to go places with has one of the most iconic beards of all time.

I had a little incident recently when I went away with my parents and we were booking into a hotel. I was getting my own room and we needed wristbands to prove we belonged there. The dude wanted to give me a yellow wristband, which is essentially a kiddies-to-teens one. When we questioned it he was very embarassed and said he thought I wasn't an adult. I guess that's what you get for going places with your parents and not carrying yourself confidently etc.
 
No. And I never really have.

I went to referee a middle school basketball game back in Colorado Springs. I was 21 or 22 at the time. There was a miscommunication on the schedule, so there was no game. School was letting out as I was leaving, and as I was calling someone about the game issues, one of the school admin-types came up to me and said "Students aren't allowed to have cell phones on campus."

I'm 27 now, and I still get mistaken allllllll the damned time for a student when I substitute and for a player when I referee.

But I suppose it's better than the other way around.
 
I feel that yes, I probably look older than I am (maybe just a few years give/take? just enough to distinguish a man from a prissy little boy, I suppose). I don't really have a problem with it... chicks around here seem to like guys that look older at this age anyway :wacky:

I didnt even get my first stalker in high school until I got myself cleaned up and wore a goatee... not that i was really attending high school often, I was busy being a depressed truant. :awesome:
 
I thought I did, but I don't really know...

Last year at my siblings' birthday party, I was helping out, and one of the mothers pointed at me and said "You're their mother, aren't you?"

I kinda just stared at her and stuttered out "I'm... their older sister..."

I was 16 at the time, and my brother and sister were turning 6 and 7 -__- That's not... even... it's not logical :gonk: So I guess this woman thought I was quite a bit older than I am.

I guess I have always looked older though, I've been getting into R-rated movies since I was about 13 :monster:
 
Right now, I think I look a little older than my age, as my own opinion, but I think some people under-age me by a year or two, teehee ;D

Although to be fair, when I was much younger teen, I looked way to old for my age. I was 13 and people thought I was at least 18 :ness:

It was mostly because I was really tall though >_>
 
Day by day I look it but if I cut my hair and shave I look a bit younger than I am now. The problem though is I have a build which can't be of a teenager anymore, and I'm starting to grey quite a bit. So the answer to your question is.. its very situational.

I am 25, but can look anywhere between 18-32 depending on what I'm wearing, if I've shaved (2nd time for emphasis), and etc.
 
About two years ago, I joined a local tennis club and when I met fellow members of the club, three of them asked me (on the same day) "what university are you in?" and "have you graduated college yet?", while I was actually only a freshman in high school. I must've looked older than I really am and it annoyed me! I don't know what made those people ask those questions, either I seriously look older or someone in the club has been giving out a (NASTY!) rumor about me.

Other than that experience, most of the time people get my age right or older, but never younger than I really am. So, I guess I look about right for my age.
 
I hate that I look so much younger than my actual age... Like 4-5 YEARS younger. I mean, My little sister looks older than me! Ugh.... So no, I don;t look my age, lol.
 
Nope, i don't look my age. I'm still getting child tickets at the movies even though I''m going to be 17 this year D; Also, someone thought I was in middle school before...
 
More or less. People think I'm at the youngest about 17 or 18 or at the oldest 22/23 which is normal for most people. I very rarely get asked for ID, but I do live around a university, so most people assume that you are at least 18. But I was able to get buy cigarettes and alcohol at 17, but that was when I had a beard, being clean shaven makes people look younger, and having stubble/ a beard makes you look older. So, yes I do look my age.
 
Nope, I don't look my age at all. I've always been mistaken to be older than I am. Basically, when I was 16 people thought I was 18, when I was 18 they thought I was 21, 21 they thought I was 25, etc etc. I think one time when I was 22, someone thought I was 28. I don't think anyone has ever mistaken me for being younger than I am, just older. It doesn't bother me though, I've always acted older than I am, so it just fits me better. I can say I'm a bitter old man and mean it. :ryan: WHIPPERSNAPPER!
 
I definitely don't look my age. Every single time I go to the store to buy alcohol or cigarettes for Dave I'm always carded/ID'd. Then when people see I'm 26 they freak out and tell me I don't look it or that I look school-aged. Back in late July while I was in the hospital, I freaked out some of the people there because they honestly didn't believe I was 25 going on 26 at the time. A few weeks ago we had some salesman come to the door that was selling children's books and I came out and he asked if the mother of the house was home...xD I said I was the mother and his eyes widened and he was like what!? No way! You look like a high school kid! It was amusing. So yeah, I suppose I look younger than my age. However all the women on my mom's side of the family have always been like that. We're really petite and we look young.
