When we stopped for gas on the way home, I decided to buy a lottery ticket as well ($21M!).

The man behind the counter looked at me and said, "You don't look old enough to buy a lotto ticket. Do you have any id?"

He was friendly enough, so I tried to detect if he was actually being serious. (Majority age is 19 years. I'm ... "just a touch" older.) Apparently so.

I handed him my driver's licence. I figured he'd say something like, "Oh, oops. Okay, thanks."

Nope. "Is this really you, or is this your older sister?"

Ehn?? I raised an eyebrow. I just smiled, signed my receipt and left.
