on looking young

SCENE: Me at the library with a pile of books in my hand. I walk up to the counter.

Me: I need to get a library card.

Cute old asian guy at counter: You need to have a parent with you.

Me: What?

Guy: You need to have a parent with you if you're under 18.

Me: [stunned] I'm 23...

Guy: [looking at me really hard and handing me a piece of paper] Okay, fill this out and I'll need your driver's license.

Haha what the hell? I know I look young and stuff like this happens kind of a lot, but 18?! Usually it's being carded for being "under 21."

Yeah, yeah, I know I'll be thankful when I'm older...
