Don't be too hard on bouncers
At a busy club it can get a bit repetitive, espescially as some places have a paranoid policy about underage drinkers, whereby the managment make the bouncers ID anyone who looks under 21 or even 25 to make sure they are over 18.
Last year my dad got asked for ID on a works night out.
"No all I've got is a photo of my two Grandaughters."
Bouncer looks up. "oh sorry sir"

Although I never did work out why in a pub I'd been drinking in for over a year I got asked for ID all of a sudden two weeks after my eighteenth birthday, same barstaff that had allways been there.

The wierdest one was on holiday in Cornwall, just finished A levels. Bought two cases of beer and a bottle of whiskey, no problem. Go outside put it in my mates car, realise I have run out of tobbaco go back in and get served by the same retarded ape who now asks me for ID?

I then said okay you got me, I'm only 15 and I'm going to tell trading standards about the beer and whiskey you just sold me.

Well I didn't realy say that but I did think it 5 minuetes later.
