11. You're not carded anymore.

I'm a couple of years out of college now, and I still get carded all the time :(

Guess I just look young.

EDIT: Oh, and the legal drinking age in my country is 18, so you can usually do it by the time you finish high school. I'm well out of college and people still think I look young enough to be in high school!

45. You can't remember what year the French Revolution started, and you don't care that you don't know.
