Both. It was retarded of them to ask for his ID, but he didn't have to make such a fuss. It's not like they were asking for a DNA sample. If it was me I probably would have rolled my eyes and said "Do I look under 21 to you?", but I wouldn't have been so stubborn. Especially because the checkout person was just following rules. There's no sense barking at some poor cashier making minimum wage and getting shit on by both managers AND cutomers.
I gave up my car earlier this year. Although I also take buses, because I live in the suburbs where things are kind of spread out. Luckily our buses have bike racks on the front. And also luckily, I live in the Bay Area, where weather extremes are rare.
To everyone carping on the mother's weight: Cycling is a low-impact exercise. Most people who bike daily aren't going to look like Lance Armstrong. I've gone down a couple belt notches and I certainly FEEL better, but I'm still a size 20.

Geez, you guys. "When I was a wee child, I would be beaten and starved for a week for swearing. And we LIKED it!!" The girl obviously didn't know "ass" is a "bad" word, and that's why it's funny. She probably heard one of her parents saying it and thought it must be okay if Mommy or Daddy say it. That's how 3-YEAR-OLDS think.

"The usual, Dr. Hawking?"
"No, today I'd like something good."
