So, in Ireland, you need to go to a so called Off License to purchase alcohol or ciggies (the latter you can purchase at a newsagent as well). Went to my local grocery shop which had its own Off License to buy some tobacco. New guy working there, apparently from Poland. He asked me for my ID. I gave him my ID from another EU country which is basically the size of a credit card. He would absolutely not believe me that this was my official ID - even though as far as I know, the Polish IDs are the same format. He insisted I’d have to provide him with a drivers license (which I never had in the first place) or to show him my passport (which I didn’t own either since you don’t need one travelling from one EU country to another). This went back and forth for about ten minutes until I asked to speak to the manager for the first time ever in my life. Manager popped by and I explained what was going on. The manager checked my ID card and told the new guy: ‘Of course that’s an official ID, you gobshite…’. It made me chuckle and off I went with my tobacco.
Are you one of those 40 year olds that look like they are 15 or something?
Close, 38. :D
Stop trying to pretend you’re younger, spez
I am totally not Spez.
Sure buddy *winks*
For those curious, the “off” means “off premises” (or something like that, they may use a different wording), so a license for a store that can sell alcohol that must be taken elsewhere to be consumed, i.e. a liquor store or package store. The inverse is an “On-License”, a license to sell alcohol that may be consumed on premises, so things like bars, pubs, and restaurants.
In Australia🦘 we call this a takeysip.
No we don’t, literally never heard of that.
I’m gonna believe the other guy because it’s funnier that way.
Can’t argue with that
They used the same song for the 2017 reboot, so that wouldn’t work. (Same lyrics, new recording.)
Ok what about Darkwing Duck or TaleSpin?
They’d work. They both got referenced in the DuckTales reboot (along with Gummi Bears and Rescue Rangers), but they never got their own modern shows.
There was a rescue Rangers movie like 3 years ago
Counterpoint: No one remembers that.
