I've never shown ID to get into a Faculty Lounge or Dining Room. As a new student, I ordered a meal in a Faculty dining area without even knowing it. I guess I just looked mature for my age (snarf)*.

Thanks to Miles Archer for the link







*If you'd seen me at that age, you'd understand. Let's just say that puberty came late, slow, and damnably subtly for me.

1. They know they're stringing together lies for the gullible morons that vote for them

Only wish someone would actually call them on it in real time. Maybe a reporter should try going into a restaurant and, you know, reporting

2. What country does he live in? It's not the United States of America.

Is this some sort of garbage they are thinking of putting in place?

3. Too late to add "only before the Old Regime collapsed" or "only in the Warsaw Pact" or similar ! Darn ! nt

[Attilatheblond]

4. Keep in mind: he works for the idiot who tried to convince us people have to show ID to buy groceries

[eppur_se_muova]

5. Not forgotten about that, either. nt

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

6. Been carded to enter the bar

Never the dining room part of the restaurant.

7. The few times I had to show i.d. at a restaurant was when i had made reservations.

The only other times were when I was at the bar or ordering drinks (back when I drank alcohol).

8. Need ID on Veterans Day

Only on Veterans Day do I need show ID to get the freebies. Applebees, Red Robin, TGIF, bloomin onion or what is it, Olive Garden, well it is understandable why ID is needed and I do not object whatsoever, it is within reason.
Other than that, no I have not to my recollection shown ID.
You say Freudian slip re ID vs idea, looks like an incorrect 'auto correct' to me, ha.

9. Maybe Blanche gets carded because they are

looking for a way to 86 the fucker.

20. Now there is a thought!

[rzemanfl]

21. It may have been the only one I had all day.

[niyad]

22. But a good one!

10. Does the buffet at a gentleman's club count?

[Jerry2144]

13. I thought the Canadian term for those establishments was "The Ballet"

[niyad]

15. Brought to mind an old limerick:

They called her "Honey Pie in New Orleans,
The hottest of the bunch.
But on the old expense account,
She was gas, cigars, and lunch.

11. Y'all can afford restaurants?

[SergeStorms]

14. Only when Democrats are in office.

When republiCANT'S are in office it's Ramen noodles and cheap-ass tuna fish in my nice, comfy refrigerator box. 😉

[Jerry2144]

12. fairly often here in Las Vega

Some casinos (such as Circa) check your ID to ensure older than 21 to even get in to go to the restaurant. They scan your ID and they also scan your ID to get you free parking for locals.

[ForgedCrank]

16. Any time

I order alcohol, the ID is mandatory regardless that there is no way anyone could ever mistake me for being too young. I'm not 100 percent positive, but I'm pretty sure it's a law in my state. I don't often order alcohol though, so it's only on occasion.

[Wonder Why]

17. Only when I order a vegan meal. They don't believe it is me so I never order vegan even to

go along with my steak!

[haele]

18. To get into the Chief's or Officer's Mess. Or a club room at the back of a bar.

But a normal restaurant - even a high end one?
No.
And though I've eaten at Hooters (once - did not have to show ID) I've never eaten at a strip club, and from what I understand, they check IDs there.

[niyad]

19. I can remember having to show ID several times to order a drink at a new bar*,

but NEVER to simply go to a restaurant. Just like I have NEVER had to show ID to simply
buy groceries. I have had to show it on occasion to buy wine in the grocery store, per a state law about alcohol and tobacco.

(* Which always cracks me up. As I show my ID, I point out, with a smile, that I am at least three, and possibly four or five (depending on the bar), times older than their oldest single malt.

[MustLoveBeagles]

23. I've never had ito show iD to go to a restaurant

I have been carded entering bars until my late thirties.

[Bettie]

24. When I was in college, I had to show my student ID

at the dining hall.

Never in a restaurant.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

25. Never!!!!

[RandySF]

26. Maybe he was talking about getting drunks.

[usonian]

27. This one checks ID.
