Things that I'm annoyed about right now

[MaverickPS]

1) I got to my car yesterday morning to go to work to find my front left tire completely flat. Upon closer inspection, I noticed a knife-sized gash in the sidewall of the tire. Nice. Very nice. I didn't piss anyone off so unless it's a crazy ex-g/f from the days of yore, I have no idea who could've done it. Waste of $75 at "Discount" Tire.

2) I'm 26 and my g/f is 27. The other night we made a late night trip to the grocery store (Tom Thumb) to pick up an extra ingredient for the food we were making, and decided to pick up some beer while we were there. Well, the cashier (who was proudly displaying her "We ID under 30!" badge like the **** that she was) asked for our ID's... no problem - except that my girlfriend's driver's license is expired (idiot). Well, when this amazing piece of trivia was proudly brought to my attention by the cashier, I asked her "does that change the fact that it's her license and that she's still the same 27 years of age she was a few days ago when her license expired?"... and she was like "No, I know, it's a stupid rule". Well, fine. Except the idiot bag boy came over thinking he was hot **** and said "I'll take these" as he grabbed the two six packs off the register, probably thinking he was happening upon a couple of idiot 18 year olds trying to sneak through Un-ID'd, except he was the idiot 18 year old working at a grocery store.

If you're over 21 and have ID, why didn't she just sell it to you? Just because she doesn't have a valid ID, doesn't mean she can't sell the beer to you.

Unless she was paying for the beer because you are a filthy jobless bum who makes your woman pay for everything!

BUSTED YOU LOSER!!!

Ummmm?

Did I say that wrong?

No sir.

"Even more dumb" or "even dumber" are both grammatically correct. What would be wrong was if you said "more dumber." That is wrong.

Probably for the same reason nightclubs aren't allowed if you have an expired ID.

An expired ID is not considered a valid ID. For things like alcohol that requiring a valid ID, it's illegal to accept one that is expired. (which is why clubs require them, because they sell alcohol)

I guess we were making the same point. I took it as you were saying that she should have sold it to them anyway. My bad.

You guys are really missing the point. He was the one paying and his license was valid.

Unless there is a law that says that if you buy alcohol while in the company of someone else, you all have to be ID's (which would be very interesting for adults that shop with their kids), there was no reason for the cashier to even check her ID, much less the bag boy to swoop in and be a *****.

Really, where does it say that?

TBC law only mandates that the person paying for a purchase of an alcoholic beverage at a package store be required to produce a "VALID" state approved ID. The description of his "story", makes it very clear, who was purchasing, carded, and subsequently denied.

The "story" doesn't hold water, purely on the fact that a package store cashier doesn't ID every individual in the group making a purchase of alcohol. And even in the off-chance they did, why wouldn't "Things that I'm annoyed about right now" dude, just go... "Ummmm?!? Hey 18 yr old grocery sacker, who I'm clearly better than!?!?", "I have a valid ID!"?

im pretty sure your point is the same as the guy your quoting.

Ive bought beer at walmart and they always ID me and whoever I'm with if the other person isn't making a purchase. it most likely isn't the law but a store policy to cover their ***.

in fact one time my gf and i were getting a bottle of Welches sparkling cider or whatever its called and the cashier must have thought we were trying to put one over on her cause she said real *****y like "uh, OK, I'm gonna have to see some ID'' i told her it wasn't wine and made her feel real stupid

hahah, I like this guy...

anyway just to be clear:

I was paying, my ID is valid, we were in a grocery store (not a liquor store, where all parties are ID'd because you have to be 21 to be IN the store in the first place)

I did say what DallasCowpoke suggested - "Um, hello, I'm the one paying here and my ID is valid, you stupid *****". (well, except for the last bit)

WWDCD???? (What Would DallasCowpoke Do?)

Depends on how good of a talker you are.

No, I didn't miss the point. That was the first point I made. That the lady should have sold it to him even though her ID was invalid. She wasn't selling it to her. She never should have even pulled her ID out.

stores are over the top with ID I think.

In 07 I was home in NY on vacation and I was with one of my friends. Now I am 30 years old at this point and my friend is 32. We walk into a grocery store, bought some stuff to cook on the grill and some beer and wine. I was buying the food and my friend didnt even have enough to cover it....

so we get in line put are stuff on the counter walk up to the cashier. Similar thing as you, it was a 20 year old or so girl. She asks me for ID and I give it to her. She looks at me and says I cant sell you the beer. I said what? why and she told me we are not allowed to sell beer to out of state drivers license.....

I laughed, I said to her I am 30 years old, look at the license...and she refused....so I said ok, and my friend took his out and said here is mine....and she says I cant sell the beer to either of you since he has a texas license.

Some of that stuff is ridiculous. I mean my dad is in his mid 60s he buys beer here in north texas when he visits with an out of state DL.

we actually had to leave, my friend had to come back in and get back in th same line without me and buy the beer. How stupid is that.

I bought beer in clubs, bought beer in the post exchanges and post mini exchanges while in San Antonio and a few other places in Texas. However one night we were out and we stopped in a gas station that was off post and the person would not sell me beer. It was not a texas ID. I told her...It is a UNITED STATES ARMY ID, I am not showing you my home state ID...IT is the united states army ID that should be good in any US town and any US state.

Nope...No Go

As mad as I was, it was not the person's fault...they were just doing what they were told to do.
