Ok, so yeah I posted a "Yay for Somerfield" post the other day.
That was before I found out they were Fudge Packing ID Nazis.
So I go into Gay-Somerfield today to buy all that cheapo drink I was raving on about, only to find out the offer had ended yesterday.
So I potter around the store looking for something to buy for me dinner (Pot Noodle)(Ick)
Then, low and behold. I look into one of those fridges they keep beer n' stuff in and see some genius has left one of the "Three for £1.75" signs infront of the Java drinks! (Yay!)
So, I fill up me basket and toddle off to the checkout.
Me: "Heya"
Susan the Checkout woman: "Hello, boop boop boop"
Me: Aren't they supposed to be on the three for £1.75?"
Susan the Checkout woman: "I'll just check, oh by the way have you got any ID?"
Me: No, I don't.
Susan: "Thingy whats her name, could you just do a price check for me?"
Thingy woman: "Ok, five seventy five"
Me: err they're on offer
Thingy: No they're not
Me: Yes. They are. Theres a sign in your little fridge thingy over there.
She storms off, I follow and point out the sign and bask in my God like "Oh yes I was right and you were wrong, nyer nyer nyer-ness"
She rips the sign down and goes "hrrrrrmpf!" (Kinda like a camel does)
Then all of a sudden she spouts out with... "Well, I'm sorry, if you don't have any ID then I can't sell it to you"
How sodding rude! I've bought loads of drink from them before now and oooo just because I proved the Fudge Packing ID Nazi wrong, she goes and IDs me!
I've never been IDed like EVER!
Do I look seventeen!? Ummm no! I'm 19! Going on 20! I'm going to need a bloody walking stick soon and she IDs me!?
URRRRRRRRAAAAAAAGGGGGGH!

WHen I walked into GAME when I was thirteen one of the attendants advised me to buy GTA 3.
Oh, and I bought the original GTA, on my own, when I was 8.
The ignorance.

Maybe not 8, 10 at the most.
Oh, and wheneverI want to buy a game 'm too young to get, I stick the price tag over theage rating. They're idiots.

At Electronics Boutique (before it merged with game) the sales person refused to sell my mate a game with an ELSPA rating of 15. pfft!

I would go "nah ah not me" but I can't. What with being hungover right now.

Anyone know why it's illegal for bars to make cocktail pitchers without ice?

Because the ice melts and dilutes the alohol so you don't become paraletic?
Somerfield are gay AND Nazi, well you don't see that very often!
I've never been ID'd from the age of 16 onwards until two weeks before my 18th birthday and the day after my birthday (didn't have my ID either!) Makes you want to cry doesn't it?
