I'd definitely push back on that one. This is getting beyond stupid.

Also woks when the last name on the ID is Jones, and you reply with a heavy Spanish accent.
Don't make assumptions about people's backgrounds due to name, age, hair color etc... |

At a Walgreens last week while on the road, my doctor called in a prescription. I went to pick it up and they gave me nonsense about the insurance and called the carrier SEVERAL times to make sure it was OK.
But the funny thing is the pharmacist would spin around and ask me my address trying to catch me off guard. He did this about four times. I hope the TSA and ID checkers don't learn about this trick. :rolleyes: |

Any numeric answer you give is right in some number system. If you're 32, answer 20. That's 32 in hexadecimal.
Beyond that, the mapping doesn't cover all steps. Lets say you say "22". What could that be? 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 and so on. What if you're really 27? Lets say you say "50". What could that be? 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65 and so on. |
Physical age or mental?

This morning while going through Checkpoint B in CLT the ID checker asked everyone their age.
It's common for places serving alcohol in the UK to do that when determining if a customer is underage and where there is doubt about the ID's validity. |

I would guess that something didn't match.
Have any silly questions really ever stopped an attack? |
'What's your age?'
'On this plane of existence, or cumulative?' |
I honestly never know my age. Any time somebody asks me I have to remember what year it is now and then do the math. Would that make me look suspicious, especially given that I sometimes use my fingers to help me count?

I'm pretty sure I would say the first thing that popped into my mind upon reading your post, "You don't ask a lady her age." I mean ...? Were these people brought up in a barn?
