LOLOLOLOLOL

Also, now you're legal.....to smoke cigarettes. Oh, stay away from the freshmen, that's a big nono.

In Canada, you could gamble and drink, too.

[Strawberries]

In Soviet Russia, Birthday has YOU!
That sounds so bad. As my guild used to say, congo rats.

[Asta Kask]

One of the big things is usually to get rid of your qualifications as a unicorn rider.

Bah. I still qualify, and I'm 24. There's no big rush.

[Xyk]

In America, you are legally an adult for everything but alcohol. You get to vote, own property, buy tobacco and pornography, call those infomercials that say "You must be 18 or older to call"...

The list goes on.

Just 8 more months for me...

[V for Victory]

Its So Great!!!! My Parents Got Me A Kindle

For all those turning 18 in the US, and who are male:

Don't forget to register with selective service. They'll fine you if you don't. You have something like 30 days before and after your 18th B-Day to register. I barely got mine in on time.

I'm not entirely sure why we still have to register for the draft, despite it being...pretty much illegal, but we do.

They'll do what now? I'm almost 22 and never did that and haven't heard from anyone.

I'm pretty sure that if they 'find out' they'll just say "Hey! Do this!" THEN I can get in trouble for refusing. Until then, however, I don't belive it's a problem

EDIT: Oh, and happy birthday V :smallbiggrin:

[Rae Artemi]

7 more years till you can legally rent a Car!

[Sleverin]

Yeah, I never heard of this selective service thing. I've never voted and they seem to think I still live with my grandma. Hooray for never filing a change of address form :D

[Alteran]

Shadow_archmagi, you should spoil the mandatory comic.

I think overuse has already done that. :smallwink:

But also, Happy birthday Sleverin! Have fun being old!

...er, I suppose. Old-er.

It's not illegal, there just hasn't been a draft since 'Nam, and we aren't likely to except in extreme situations. The current political climate and the fact that only men have to sign up with the Selective Service (Discrimination!) are probably two of the biggest reasons why it's that way.

selective sevice, whaaaa?
US's term for "The guys who keep track of you for the Draft."

[Mystic Muse]

well, I'll sign up for that when I turn 18.

(yes, I'm a guy. Now you all know. happy?)

I turned 18 two days ago and I got a letter from the Selective Services. It said, "If the information on this letter is correct, then don't do anything. Let us know if anything is wrong." So I assume they have me covered.

Wow. weird. I had to go online and fill everything out and stuff, after they sent me a letter saying I hadn't yet. Maybe different states have different takes on it, OR it changes how it works VERY rapidly.

[rakkoon]

18, congrats, I always said I'd go directly to a casino when I turned 18. Only went when I was 19 though. So off with ya!

[Exeson]

You do realise the thrill and joy of buying alcohol underage will no longer exist now? Unless you live in the states of course, and then you got a good few years to go still.

See, I don't like alchohol so... yeah

[Dr.Epic]

Whooooooooo!!!! I'm 18 today. :)

*Pfff* I turned that over two years ago.

Happy birthday by the way.

[Alteran]

Wait, what?

...I have no idea why I did that. You weren't anywhere near the beginning of the thread. Sorry about that. xD

Happy birthday, V for Victory. Yes.

[Graymayre]

Happy b-day

I wish I went wild when I turned 18 a year ago. I wanted to do the things that I was too afraid to do, yet I still find myself afraid to do a lot of it.


Don't be like me, go crazy. :smallsmile:

What this wish man says is true. Go out, do something wild and crazy. There's no better time for it, truly.

My parents are kind of overbearing, when I move out I will I promise :)

Same here, I wonder if they've changed how it's done.

Oh, and Happy Birthday V!
