should i be flattered?

warning, this is a random useless blog.

i went out to dinner tonight with my family and AGAIN people thought i was a high school student. i'm 30, i'm old, but i still get carded and asked either when i'm graduating from high school or which college i'm attending. i guess i should be flattered, but it's still awkward.

the end.

here's something for those who feel like they got gypped coming in here expecting something interesting.

are these your nuts?

Chipmnk on Jun 23 '08 at 9:53pm

Most of my relatives still think I'm in middle school.

And it's not that flattering.

Jebbie on Jun 23 '08 at 9:55pm

Poor Phil

pilihp on Jun 23 '08 at 9:55pm

gs, dem be my nutz, yes.

alvin, curse our asian youthful good looks!

the czar on Jun 23 '08 at 9:58pm

I never get tired of people thinking I am young. I had someone guess my age as 26 last month, that made my day.

Chipmnk on Jun 23 '08 at 9:59pm

Dude, I know right?

the golden spatula on Jun 23 '08 at 10:00pm

almost every time I'm buying wine/beer (here you have to be 16 to buy it) the cashiers want to see my id...
I'm 26!
It's not flattering, just weird.

fatheed on Jun 23 '08 at 10:01pm

It is hard to guess the age of a lot of azn people. That's science.

edean on Jun 23 '08 at 10:01pm

depending on what i'm wearing, how long my hair is, how much facial hair i have, etc. people can think i'm 17-27...

i've had people look at my id and say "that's not you"
i really think they should've taken a profile pic instead of a straight on because i haven't met anyone with the same chin as me...it's like jay leno's chin but skinnier

the czar on Jun 23 '08 at 10:04pm

When you guys get to be my age you will be happy someone thinks you are young

ofthecoast on Jun 23 '08 at 10:04pm

I got ID'd at a 14A movie.
Also, age ain't nothin but a number.

also I love your food with faces pictures.

Hi Phil.

boysbeambitious on Jun 23 '08 at 10:05pm

People always mistaken me for younger. :x

boysbeambitious on Jun 23 '08 at 10:05pm

but yay, nuts!

jublin on Jun 23 '08 at 10:09pm

need more facial hair

squatterjohn on Jun 23 '08 at 10:15pm

People think I'm young.

iPear on Jun 23 '08 at 10:19pm

dude, keep the stache, it's the only way.

Steve The Great on Jun 23 '08 at 10:21pm

lol @ thirty year olds.

valorandvellum on Jun 23 '08 at 10:21pm

Haha, that's so silly. We all know you graduated from high school last year.

margolove on Jun 23 '08 at 10:24pm

awww... I know a lot of people to whom that happens :/ 3o is a little more extreme... at least it'll pay off in like ten years I guess? My sister is 25, and during her last internship in college (doing fashion design at Ralph Lauren), she found out that the people she worked with thought she was like... 19 (and she was 24 or 25). That really sucks if you want to be taken seriously :/

pilihp on Jun 23 '08 at 10:24pm

glad I'm not the only one. I tried growing facial hair, but being Asian kinda makes it impossible.

Hi Kelsi!

andyg on Jun 23 '08 at 10:24pm

young is better than old!

margolove on Jun 23 '08 at 10:25pm

also, man, for the first time EVER I have been having people tell me I look younger than 18. Mostly it's just crazy old people telling me I don't look old enough to ring up their alcohol at my cashier job at a grocery store, but still. Weird. I must not be wearing enough whore makeup.

valorandvellum on Jun 23 '08 at 10:25pm

We have shows like 90210 to blame. Old people see that and naturally think that someone in their late 20's and 30's are in high school.

blossompossum on Jun 23 '08 at 10:29pm

Most people where I live seem to be pretty intent on thinking that I'm in my early twenties, whereas I'm still in high school. I guess that's not a huge age gap, but still, it's oddly amusing.

Steve The Great on Jun 23 '08 at 10:31pm

people think I'm 15.

Torakamikaze on Jun 23 '08 at 10:32pm

I feel your pain dood

Every time I go to a restaurant I get handed the senior dinner menu

WarDrobeInSpareOom on Jun 23 '08 at 10:38pm

One of my neighbors asked if I went to the local middle school.

Sigh.

OOOO! BURN!!!

kayceislost on Jun 23 '08 at 10:40pm

kayce & point.

way to fail, steve.

MCS4096 on Jun 23 '08 at 10:48pm

I'm 24 and often people think I'm just starting college. I've had people walk into college freshman classes I'm teaching and be like "wheres the teacher?" It really bothers me, not so much in general, but I worry people dont take me seriously in my professional life because of it.

MCS4096 on Jun 23 '08 at 10:49pm

and it's weird because people totally thought I was older than I was when I was in high school. Except my grandma, who still doesn't really know my age.

spacesick 2 on Jun 23 '08 at 10:51pm

I'm just here for the food.

chelly on Jun 24 '08 at 9:52am

i'm late for this blog, but just wanted to say that this confuses me

you're tall as all getout which usually makes ppl think older

is there a college in your town, maybe that's why

the older i get, the younger everyone else look
seriously, fucking preschoolers are driving these days

angelito on Jun 24 '08 at 9:56am

Phil lets make a "people think we are kids but really we are 30 and supposed to be grown-ups" club!

sonmi on Jun 24 '08 at 9:56am

i think you need to start sporting a pipe and tophat

sonmi on Jun 24 '08 at 9:57am

not even for any age-related reasons, just cuz

snaggle tooth on Jun 24 '08 at 10:00am

someone told me saying "got gypped" is racist towards gypsies. i said, what a gyp!

Bramish on Jun 24 '08 at 10:03am

If it's any consolation, I think you look really, really old.

Tonteau on Jun 24 '08 at 10:11am

I look pretty young. Doesn't bother me that much, just wish I could muster a fuller covering of facial hair.

Malcolm Man on Jun 24 '08 at 10:14am

I was going to ask if puberty was still taking it's toll on your body.

I second the pipe

Bramish on Jun 24 '08 at 10:14am

Likewise - if I could grow a full, thick beard, I'd look my age. Most people guess I'm around 24.

sonmi on Jun 24 '08 at 10:15am

i'd like to see phil with a mohawk

also for reasons completely unrelated to age

Mountain Gnome on Jun 24 '08 at 10:16am

snaggletooth, possibly racist to eGYPtians?

Malcolm Man on Jun 24 '08 at 10:16am

plus, I Look about 17 forever.

I t think it'll work for my greater benefit in the long run.

Tonteau on Jun 24 '08 at 10:17am

Bramish, you've no cause fot complaint. You could outbeard me any day of the week.

Tonteau on Jun 24 '08 at 10:17am

*for

bobobob1230 on Jun 24 '08 at 10:20am

it seems a common thing that the threadless bloggers are having a hard time growing facial hair

my explanation is that charlie festa stole all of it for himself.

sonmi on Jun 24 '08 at 10:22am

there definitely needs to be an out-beard-a-thon at some point

Hi my name is on Jun 24 '08 at 10:24am

People always think I'm in my mid 30's, which doesn't bother me either way.
