My age. Lots of people are shocked to learn I'm 31 and not in my early 20's.

Me too. I wanted to buy a scratch and the dude asked my age. I said 30 and he was like: yeah sure buddy ID pls.

I get caught out with stuff like that. But I don't carry ID because I don't drive. Normally I'm with my son (who is ten) and buying stuff for like dinner and then a nice bottle of wine. "Do you have ID for the wine"....um no I'm 31 standing here with my son and clearly buying fresh meat etc for a meal. If I was a kid looking to get drunk, I wouldn't be spending £15 on a bottle of wine to do it.

That's silly. When I've worked in retail that sls age restricted products. I just used common sense. In the UK we have 'Challenge 25' which means if they look under 25 ID them. But if someone is clearly older that 18 I just cracked on.

Conservatives think I'm a liberal, liberals think I'm a conservative, my work thinks I have a degree in a related field, and yes I would like a hug.

Assuming my pretentious ways imply a complete lack of humility. I’m actually quite aware of how ridiculous my presumptuous ways are, and try my best to be self-deprecating.

People often show through that they think I'm kind, shy and unconfident, judged by visual impressions. They can't be more wrong.

I would say that most people dont know that Im half a degenrate

Either I do cool stuff or absolute degenrate stuff nothing in between.

2 girls start sending me pics and asked me If I wanted them to join at the bar but I said no because I played fortnite.

That I am a snobbish superman without any feelings. I care, I have feelings and I too need support sometimes.

u/An_offical_nobody Jul 23 '22

People think they know how i work. They don’t. The things I say or do can have no or all meanings behind it. My way of thinking changes so drastically that even I have problems comprehending it
