Gen Y’s Revenge
On Friday, for the first time in years, I bought my own beer. I can’t tell you the last time I had to buy my own alcohol; I guess I underestimated my feminine wiles, because I realized I haven’t bought my own alcohol in over 14 years.
Ever.
But I was going to a function that required you to BYOB, and I decided that I didn’t want to be obligated to listen to some smelly guy feeding me a load of word-vomit just to get a free beer. Sometimes, a girl just wants to enjoy herself, no strings attached.
So I walk into a local grocery store, grab a six-pack of Corona, and head towards the door. I had my ID ready as the check-out girl slid the beer across the scanner. She took my ID from my hand and held it close to her face, smacking her gum all the while.
“Wow. I wouldn’t have guessed you were THAT old!”

What’s that expression?
“I was once where you are and someday you will be where I am now!”

Wait till they start calling you “Maam”!

Ugh… I’m already being called Sir!

Those mellenials are a strange group …

Of course you could have said, “Oh crap I need to find a new place to get fake IDs.”
