PumpkinPete112 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Well i have finally turned 18 today. Its weird to think im considered an adult now. I woke up and it didnt really hit me right away. SO anyway to celebrate (get the flame machines ready) Woke up at 2 Went to the store and bought 5 Lottery tickets, a lighter, and a cheap cigar. (Didnt win any money, the cigar was good though *my first*) Went to the movies with friends (and bought them all a pack of ciggies) So what do you guys think about turning 18, what did you do/plan to do when it happens.

deloriagod Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I woke up, felt normal, went out and bought my first legal pack of cigarettes, then went on with my life. It's kind of annoying to have people asking me to buy them cigarettes or whatnot now. They can get them themselves if they had a damn clue considering I started smoking underage and had no problem getting cigarettes.

Stilev Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 i was like the last out of all my friends to turn 18 so i never really was annoyed with people. 18 is just a number its the experience behind the number which really matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can get them themselves if they had a damn clue considering I started smoking underage and had no problem getting cigarettes. Same here with alcohol. It's not that I don't mind buying 17 year olds alcohol, it's just if I got caught, kiss good-bye to any jobs in the public sector. Most shops accept their college ID too, and you can get them at 16. :roll: | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it's not even the getting caught part that bothers me, it's that they'll call me up and ask me to go get them some during school or whatnot. I mean if we were hanging out and we stopped by a gas station then I'd have nothing against buying them a pack (as long as they've got money) but I'm not going to go out of my way to buy people cigarettes.

It's like what happens when you feed wild animals, they do not appreciate the priveledge and try to abuse it as much as possible. My younger brother(17) is a huge drinker, and I turn 19 in a week(legal age in Canada). I'm sure looking forward to it. :evil: "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLancer Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Never been a big drinker, but upon turning 18 I immediately bought a bottle of Captain Morgan's dark jamaican rum & some coke, shared with 2 friends, and a $40 havanna cigar. Just to finally get access to the 'forbidden items'. Man that was great, only things missing were a good old parrot, a ship and some gold doubloons. In a lot of countries now, though, even 18 year old's can't buy all beverages. You'll have to wait until 20/21 to buy over 22% bottles. So don't worry or think you suddenly grew old and weary, you're just beginning life 8-) (P.S. Happy birthday & If you do decide to purchase a cigar, don't embarrass yourself like I did & cut it from the wrong end) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Observer Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Heh, the legal age for buying cigarettes and drinking is 19, so I wouldn't be able to do that. Happy Birthday by the way. : P.S.

Furah Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 congratz, although I am one of those who see an adult as someone over 21 (even though I am only 16, 1½ years till I am 18) On my 18th I might get some burbon & cola, just to see why my dog loves the stuff (dad gave him some not long after we got him as a puppy, he ran into everything after dad gave him too much :lol: ) Steam | PM me for BBM PIN Nine naked men is a technological achievement.

Rahila Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 well i turn 18 in 2 weeks...and i don't smoke cigs, but i do smoke cigars, hookah, etc and drink alcohol. tbh 18 year olds should be allowed to drink in the U.S...After all we can go to iraq and [bleep]ing die...yet we cant drink... but the way i see it being 18 wont be that big of a deal, other than the fact that i only have 2 weeks left to get arrested for something and not get f'd in the A... http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legosimx Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Why do so many of you smoke :shock: Anyway. I'm 15, but the first thing I'm going to when I'm 18, is buy a Ka-bar of the interwebz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ugafan_2009 Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I turn 18 in a half a year, and I know I'll go buy a black and mild or swisher sweet with a lotto ticket, but that's about it. Looking forward to games of online poker and clubbing next summer though. Quit RS, combat 104, total 1651 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ouchy Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 What will I do when I am 18? Do everything I can't now of course! ;) But smoking is not on my agenda.... My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Lord Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 When I turn 18, it's just going to be another day. I already consider myself an adult and am basically a college freshman now. Maybe it'll be a motivator to finally get my driver's license. I'm almost 17 and I still do not even have a permit. It'll be even more of a motivator if my parents give in and buy me a red Mini Cooper or some other European-made car that I would like. American cars really aren't my thing. What will I do when I am 18? Do everything I can't now of course! ;) But smoking is not on my agenda.... Watch out! He's got an agenda!

deloriagod Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Why do so many of you smoke :shock: It's one of those things I do when I'm stressed out and need to chill. I've pretty much given it up besides those rare occasions when I need one but I really only gave it up for my girl (she's not into it).

arizark Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 When I turned 18 I went straight to the bottle shop and bought a heck of a lot of alcohol haha I think I spent about $200 in total, was kinda disappointing though because they didnt ask for id :( but other then that it was a normal day since it was monday I had to wait a whole week to drink most of it.

Futurama Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I'm 19 now, and a fair bit changed, mostly because of how much of a pain in the arse it is to do anything where I live unless you're 18! It's good to be able to get into bars, and even restaurants which used to turn me away for being under 18. Why, I don't know - we ended up going for Indian food all the time because pubs used to just kick us out even if we didn't drink and just ate! Makes you wonder... It's a lifestyle change for sure. Then again, I didn't go to a bar on my 18th, went for a meal instead - at an Indian. :mrgreen: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
