Dumb things I have to hear.

[Skulhedface]

I used to work in retail, so I know stupid customers well. They're a timeless antagonist.

The story above this about buying cigarettes... I was born just one year later, so my easy math doesn't work...

However, when I go in to buy smokes or beer once in awhile, they always, ALWAYS have that "Do Not Sell If You Were Born After..." calendars. Being that it is 2003, you could be born in fucking 1985 and still be old enough to buy smokes. But for some reason, this woman has trouble figuring out that someone born in 1981 is old enough.

I'm almost 22. Being fresh from 21, I don't mind standing there and waiting a bit for them to figure out I am of drinking age. However, when the math is simple enough, and I am 4 years past being old enough to buy smokes, and they STILL sit there and do the math... it gets a bit bothersome.

And it's a bit bothersome that I apparently look young enough to not be able to buy cigarettes, despite the fact I'm well beyond it.
