God I used to impress people by smoking cigs up my nose. I do not see that going over well at all now.

Back in the day, Hot Wheels was the s**t. We used to bring them into elementary school, show them off, and trade them. Anything with gold wheels was hot s**t. Anything that was a model of a real car was too. We used to just make stuff up that "boosted" the rarity of a car. Stuff like, "This one is in metallic white and only 10 were made!" Collecting Hot Wheels now probably not so cool. ^(Although I still think they are cool.)Guzzles reply

In High School, I knew all of the lyrics to a ton of late-90s and early 2000s club banger rap songs. I was known for this throughout my entire school, and people would always dance near me at dances to watch me flawlessly lip sync these songs. I did the rapping hand movements too, and often some of the dances from the music videos, although I was a much better lip syncer than dancer. I am and was a tiny white girl from a small rural village. It's so embarrassing to think about now. I do occasionally get asked to do it at the weddings of classmates, but I wiggle out of it by sticking to the bar. I can't imagine the brain power I wasted on this, when I should have been focusing on my studies. Probably one of the reasons that I had to take remedial math in college. Thank God I no longer live near where I grew up, I've been hiding from memories of my high school self ever since, I was so cringe.

I was voted "Most Likely to be Out of Dress Code" in high school, because I was always getting detention for breaking dress code. It was a pretty cool honor to have for a senior superlative, because it was about as rebellious as you could get at a Jesuit high school. As an adult that would just get me fired if I was constantly breaking the dress code of a place that had one.

Owning an absurd amount of Pokemon cards. IDK what more a woman would want than a raquaza EX.

You were really cool if you were missing a tooth in school. If you’re missing a tooth in adulthood you just look like a crackhead.

It didn't make me cool, but an old friend of mine (we're no longer friends) was far cooler than me. Why? Because he didn't care about grades, was openly hostile to authority, smoked weed all the time, had a criminal record, and generally just had that "I don't give a f**k, I'm a badass" confidence. That's cool in high school. Nowadays, though, that guy is thought of as being very uncool. Why? Because not caring about your job performance (the adult equivalent of not caring about grades), being openly hostile to authority (such as your supervisors, or the cops), spending most of your waking life stoned, having a criminal record, and somehow still thinking you're a badass definitely isn't cool in adulthood.Show All 7 Upvotes

30 Bizarre Situations Women Found Themselves In Because Of Their “Baby Faces”, As Shared In This Online Community
Was Walking With A 5th Grader And Got Told They Looked Like Twins
Working in a school, walking with a 5th grader down the hall (I was 25 at the time) and being told we looked like twins. In a high school, I've been mistaken for a student. Had bars question my real ID and refuse to serve me. When I was 22 I got carded to see a rated-R movie. People think it's cute and funny to tell me that I just look SO young. Truthfully, it's been an insecurity for me most of my life. I just want to be taken seriously.
Pet Store Employee Assumed She Wasn't 18 Yet
At the pet store with my best friend who is in her 50s and her daughter (13) who wanted to hold a Guinea pig but her daughter was standing about 50 feet away from us, looking at hamsters they have for sale. My best friend asks a store employee if her daughter can hold a Guinea pig. The store employee goes on about how their store policy is that any potential buyer needs to be at least 18 years old to hold a pet and assumed that I was her daughter. Then he says to me “May I ask how old you are?” I was 35.
A Friend Whispered "Lady Bathory" When She Found Out Her Age
A girl I had casually known for a year found out I was in my 30s, looked at me with complete shock and whispered “Lady Bathory”… I took it as a compliment!!!
Kept Being Asked If She Was Lost
Being asked if I was the high school work experience girl on my first day at a new job. Or being asked if I was lost, and a stranger offering me her phone if I wanted to call my parents. I was 22. My mum made me get my hair and makeup done for my Year 12 formal, when I was 17. The lady doing the makeup was talking about not putting too much makeup on me, because she thought it was for a Year 6 graduation. I should have played along rather than blurt out I was Year 12, because then I wouldn't have had to wear too much of that gunk on my face.
Bank Worker Assumed She Was A Minor
I went to a bank to apply for my first ever credit card. They told me "Sorry, we do not allow minors to open their own credit cards. You need to have your guardian as the primary card holder." I said "... you have my current payroll account...." then they caught the hint, checked my information and figured out I was in no way a minor. I was 25 years old.
Was Asked If She Was At Least 21 By A Female Bartender
I was asked if I was at least 21 by a female bartender. I said "I'm actually 31, this has been the second time in 24hrs someone thought I was younger...maybe it's the backpack?" Second female bartender said "ya probably Dora." As is Dora the explorer. My mom laughed hard. I said ouch. And now I don't use my enamal Pin backpack for non theme park activities anymore.
Was Asked Whether Her "Mommy" And "Daddy" Knew That She Wasn't At School While At Her Job
I was working in finance, dressed professionally and one of the customers that came in said, "Do your mommy and daddy know you aren't at school?" And he just kept going on and on about how I didn't look old enough to work here, and thought he was so hilarious. I had been working in finance for 5 years at the time. Still the most frustrating comment about my age that I've ever heard.
Older Woman Assumed She Was A Teenager And Remarked, "Babies Having Babies"
I was damn near 30 and some older woman *tsk'd* and remarked "Babies having babies" while I was in the family area of the hospital my youngest was in with my older son. I said, lol "No, thanks though. I'm almost 30". She was like; "OH! Sorry!" I guess I look like a teenager.
Work Pals Thought She Was A Teen Mom
Told a group of new coworkers about my 8 year-old son starting 3rd grade. One of the ladies said she was impressed I was able to finish high school, finish college and earned my CPA with being a teen mom. I must have had a supportive family. I was so confused because I am 37 years old, had my son well after high school and college. My new coworkers thought I was 25 years old and assumed I had been a teen mom.
Colleague Found Out She Had A 28-Year-Old Kid
We had our holiday luncheon last week, and talking with a coworker, he asked about kids. I said yes I have a 28 year old. He said “holy s**t! Your kid is older than you!”
A Cashier Thought Her Husband Was Her Father And Wouldn't Accept His ID
I was 24 and had a 6 months old baby. A cashier thought my husband was my father and wouldn't accept his ID. Another time I was out with my husband and my 13 yo daughter and my 5 year old daughter and someone thought we were all sisters. They were praising my husband for dealing with all his kids by himself. I just died laughing. He didn't think it was quite as funny. I was 36. Time has since caught up with me but it was nice for a while. I still occasionally get carded tho.
