I'm 28 and I never get carded at the liquor store (though we usually always go to the same one) or at a nice restaurant, it's always when we go to a casual dining place, especially if it's near a college that I get carded. If I go to a club, I get carded at the door along with everyone else.

No one ever IDs me, they just yell at me since I'm a troll and tell me to leave their establishment. Sometimes people try to kill me.

Alot of stores are adopting the 'ID regardless of age policy' around here too. I was talking with a gas station attendant last year who watched her boss deny a 90+ year old man a 6 pack of beer. I don't even wait to be asked any more, just set my ID right on top of the booze when I check out, the cashiers seem to appreciate not having to ask. Bars are different, I think it's been atleast 3 years since I've been carded at a bar, I'm 28 now.

Very rarely see anyone over 25 get ID'd over here, but it happened to my dad every single time we've been to America. It's an effective rule for young people but when the person has white hairs and wrinkles it seems a bit tedious.

My brother is over 6 foot tall and had lower back length hair most of his life. Maybe 8 years ago when he was about 30 he got carded for a pack of smokes at a gas station in town. My brother, being the loud mouth a-hole that he is, very rudely explained to the poor cashier how his hair was over 18 years old and how she was incompetent to be a cashier. He basically shamed her into selling him his smokes with out an ID, I really love that guy.

It used to happen a bit but now most of the places don't bother asking me because I buy booze so often. They've got a policy of over here of if you look under 25 you get ID'd.

When I was 24 yrs old, I was carded to see a fucking Rated-R movie! The irony was that the cunt behind the window couldnt've been any older than 17 himself! :p

I still get carded every now and again but I try to go to the same place so I dont have to hassle with it.

I used to work at a gas station and would card people who I knew where over the age but did it just to mess with them.

Last time I was carded anywhere was when I drove my ex's 48 year old roomate to a sex shop to buy... products. They thought I was her son and kept carding me. They carded Will too, and he's 30, so I guess it isn't that uncommon to get carded like Disease did. :)

I don't actually think I've ever been carded aside from one incident when I was about 21, but many times prior (including under 18) I hadn't...though the majority of my experience has been buying alcohol from stores, as opposed to going out to licensed venues.
But yeah, I was the guy my friends always asked to get the alcohol when we were under-age, and I've never had too many problems at all.
Funny, these days I look a fair bit younger than the majority of my friends of similar age.
