"Give me a beer."
"No. You must be 21 years old."
"Why?"
"Hee-hee!" *moonwalks away*

"Sorry son you're old enough to go to war and die but not old enough to drink a beer"

[Katelyn.shitposts]

You've been hit by, you've been struck by a drunk driver.

Being old enough to be forced to fight in a war and die but not old enough to drink was always so interesting to me lol

"But the problem is, 18 year olds are dumb." Perfect explanation.

Roaring 20's, 100 years later the imploding 20's

A legless vet in a wheelchair rolls into a bar, the bar thender says "sorry you're not old enough"

Rolls back the age to 21 because “too many young people were dying” but proceeded to still let them sign up to go die overseas 💀

The reason for raising the drinking age(and the number of DUIs happening) was actually because states couldn’t decide an age for drinking so one state would be 18, the next state would be 21, so 18-20 year olds would drive over to the next state, get drunk legally but then drive back, so instead of realising that’s the issue, they just upped the age

Wonderful as always Tim, many thanks!

The idea that 18 is enough to go and kill and get PTSD as a reward but NOT have a brew is amazing

“18 year olds are too stupid to be able to drink!”
*gives said 18 year olds guns and sends them off to war*

“But 18 year olds are dumb and start drinking & driving”
*Gets sent off to a country half way across the earth handling machinery weighing thousands of tons and weapons of mass destruction*

Michael making sure Annie was OK and wasn't drinking like a smooth criminal

[beaner]

As a former 18 year old, I assure you that they are basically still kids

[Kimillions]

The "runnin' round" is absolutely sending me for some reason 🤣🤣🤣🤣

‘Michael Jackson is the reason you need to be 21 to drink alcohol’ *proceeds to say the most tiny impact on the drinking age*

[mfjt]

I love the part where Michael Jackson becomes the reason why the US drinking age is 21
