@AlisonW@fedimon.uk @cfy@mas.to @edzilla@social.edzilla.info I’m in my 30’s & got asked for ID just last week, in my 20’s I started paying for most stuff using Apple Pay but if I was going out for a drink or to buy alcohol I knew it was the only time I needed to take my wallet as there was a decent chance I’d get asked for ID. In my late 20’s I’d still get ID’d going into bars, at pubs & also remember it happening in a restaurant having a meal with my parents. A couple of years ago to pick up a 12 rated game from Argos I had to show an expired 25-30 (that I was too old to renew) before they’d hand over the game as they ridiculously have a challenge 25 policy on any age restricted item even when it’s double the original age. Sorry that last bit almost went into a rant about how stupid Argos are.

    @JMBragg@mastodonapp.uk @cfy@mas.to @edzilla@social.edzilla.info Back in the late 70s a friend who was 40 would occasionally get asked for proof of age. She was very short 🙁
