Getting carded at a bar or club is something you eventually age out of. But what if you’re not asked for your ID? A Chicago bartender says it might be because you look older than you actually are. The bartender shared a story about a woman who looked like she was in her 60s but was actually only four years older than the bartender. It’s a sign that you’ve aged out of getting carded, and it’s not a compliment.

Don’t ask, don’t tell – unless you want to feel old.
