mostly asinine bullshit

WTF?

I just went to pick up eggs and beer at the Coop, and then something weird happened...

Her: Do you have any ID?
Me: Excuse me?
Her: For the alcohol...
Me: [Blank look, still not really understanding what she meant]
Her: It's a new shop policy, we have to ID anyone under 30.
Me: [Still confused]....But I'm 30?!
Her: [Carefully examining my driving license for proof that I am in fact older than 17] Oh right.

I mean what kind of policy is that, IDing they think are under 30? On what planet do I look like I'm under 18?

I agree, she must have been on drugs or something!!!

What if you didn't have ID? You would have had to leave without your beer. :-)

That's absurd. I don't generally carry ID. I shall avoid the Co-op. They're mostly mentals in there anyway.
I suspect they got very, very busted recently.

At Guilfest I had to wear a wristband to show that I am old enough to buy alcohol. Even the oldest crusties had to.
