# to my knowledge nobody's confused us as yet...

# well, i'm the female, artsy,
always-grumbling-about-not-meeting-any-b3tans-in-real-life version of you.
so they ought to be able to keep us straight.

# I suggest a bash be arranged in your honour.

# *bounces excitedly in seat*
i think the real problem with getting a boston bash together is that, in the us, i'm underage.

edit: for drinking. however, i am legally allowed to be in porn movies, if i so choose.

# The irony makes my head spin.
I never got my head round the fact that you can get married at 16, but not look at pictures of naked people until you're 18.

# Is it strictly inforced?
If you were to go to a bar with a group of mid-twenties b3tans, would it likely be a problem?
(I helped save b3ta! supermoore: HUNG, Sun 4 Apr 2004, 4:04, archived)
# depends on the bar, i guess.
i usually don't test it, as it's been getting stricter and stricter every year.
lots of folk my age have fake ids, but since i don't drink much anyways i've never bothered spending the money on one.

# It's a sad sign of age
that I recently paid for a fake ID which makes me 6 years younger than I actually am.

# It's an NUS (National Union of Students) card.
It gets you into cheap bars, gets you discounts on goods and services, and is generally a handy thing to have. Mine says I'm 21, and I think I pull it off rather well.
(I helped save b3ta! supermoore: HUNG, Sun 4 Apr 2004, 4:17, archived)
# ah ha. i see.
no, i've just got my license and my student id, and while both will get me into 18-and-over clubs, neither will get me into a bar.

# how so?


edit: and it's been doing that for a while now.
(I helped save b3ta! TheFelineAnarchist, Sun 4 Apr 2004, 4:26, archived)
# a) A b3tan abroad in the uk is never short of somewhere to stay.
b) Get a courier job during vacation. cheap/free flights.

c) see b), they often pay some cash too.

# a) i know that, but i can just imagine my parents when i casually mention
that i might be staying with people from teh intranet.
b) i'm doing a dual degree, so i have to take classes over the summer if i don't want to be an undergrad for 6 years.

# er...
actually, all that stuff goes double for me. but hey, if it abates confusion i could always pose as an elderly Irish gentleman named Flannery O'Hoolihan. you may call me Flanny-O for short.

no worries though, i'm usually night shift. you won't run into me much.
