That's the luck, I guessWhen you have an i.d. they don't ask for it
Figures!!!! I know that too - just wanted to whipp it out as if to say "SEE"... Just have to remember though-Men age gracefully and women usually don't-So , take advantage of the compliments now while you can

I'd take it as a compliment...the same way as I take it as an insult when some 17year old calls me "sir"
Aargh!!
As for beer at Gas Stations...all corner stores in Quebec sell beer and wine. Can't get them drive-through though...you actually have to stop, get out of the car and buy your booze.
The only thing drive-thru around here are fast-food, titless tellers, depanneurs (corner stores), and coffee houses like Tim Hortons. Everything else...get your lazy butt out of the car and walk!

That's because they've installed the same security measures they have here in town. When you walk through the door, a quick scan relays to a little monitor right below the counter that only the cashier can see. This tells them INSTANTLY whether or not you are carrying identification. When it comes up negative, they ask for id always.

oh Geez, I hate that-down here the ppl say Thank Ya Mame....I want to say DO I LOOK LIKE A MAME to you? But its just the slang for southern speech.
this has nothing to do with anything other than ... you suppose this is a compliment?
I visited my friend Jorje several months ago at his home and met his mom for the first time. After a pleasant visit, I head home. Later Jorje tells me that his mom paid me a compliment. She said, "She's as common as an old shoe". :s
Now, that doesn't sound much like a compliment. I know she meant it nicely and was simply saying that I was down to Earth and not prissy or anything. But ... goodness.

I got called miss once about 5 years back even with my broad shoulders and a full beard. It was a young lady that was being utterly slammed at a gas station register. I approached from her left side blind spot so that all she saw of me in her peripheral vison was a one second glimpse of my long hair. She said 'yes, miss?' right as she was turning her head to look me in the eye and instantly had this embarrassed look of horror and regret upon her face as she realized her mistake. In one second flat she blushed, dropped her gaze to her feet, and seemingly shrank to one inch in height until I assured her it was OK and that I understood the reason for the mistake.
