welcome to the club, the beer is in the other room. no, you still can't have any.

[largertyler]

[Mauve Shirt]

Congrats! You have lived for 2 decades, how does it feel? A lot like being 19, I bet.

This.

At least in the States. After 18 your b-day doesn't mean anything until 21. After 21, nothing until 25 (and even that, I believe, is just the ability to rent cars). After that, there are no considerable changes until the AARP sends you a letter telling you that you are old now.

Happy birthday man, have a good one.

[Perenelle]

Happy Birthday! :smallbiggrin: and many more to come!

Here in Europe the drinking age is 16.

[rakkoon]

Depends on where you are, In Hillerot (Denmark), you can get a drink at age 16 no problem, in Kopenhagen it was impossible. But 18 is the upper limit in Europe as far as I know. Hell, there are no legal differences between an 18 and 80 year old as far as I know.
I don't know that much however

[Eldan]

65 year olds get a lot of stuff cheaper, at least in switzerland. And they don't have to work anymore (heck, often they aren't allowed to!). Oh, and after 50-something, the military finally lets you go. But yes, 18 is the legal adult age, including drinks and everything.

[rakkoon]

Oh, and
Congrats largertyler

First, congratz, you are almost epic :smallbiggrin:
Second, and not that I'm bragging (okay, I am), but here at Croatia you can get alcoholic drink in a bar around age 12, or 13. In general stores you can buy anytime you want, in fact, I have been purchasing liquor since age 7, when mom would send me to pick up something for guests :smalltongue:

So, you can go out drinking around age 14-15 without anyone making a fuss.
