I lie on general principle. If I keep putting 1st of January, 19(12-42), maybe they'll start wondering why OAPs are watching game videos/"adult" YouTube videos/porn... And I'm too lazy to scroll to find my actual birthday.

I assumed you just meant the age verification on trailers or websites.
I did learn about sex before my parents had a chance to really talk to me about it... haha. It's bad.

But for most of the websites that ask for age to view the trailer (like on the God of War III trailer I just watched) I just change the month to a date in the '80s. doesnt matter, and its usually set at Jan 1, 2000. So I do just change the year.
no bother in entering my full Bday, especially when Ive been older than 18 for 4 years or so

I used to, but I stopped caring now and just put in whatever I get in the drop menu quickest. If typing it in, not a problem.

I too, recall the invention of the internet. Before this era we were not an enlightened people, but rather chose to get our laughs from a primitive device called TV, and wikipedia was made of something called a "local library". I know, crazy huh?

I'm proud of the date of my birth. It's not every day (or even every century) that an alingment of 7 planets happens.

There was a predicted cataclysm in the book "The Jupiter Effect" that was supposed to take place on the day of my birth... but it obviously didn't happen.

Well when I was 16 I purchased a dirty mag... had a fake ID on me. Does that count? Its like lying on the internet... before the internet was invented! AWESOME! I RULE!.

That was one good Playbo... I mean National Geographic.
Lol. I'm going to get a fake ID once I get my license. I'm 15 (going onto 16 soon) and if I don't shave for about 2 weeks, I look like I'm 23. Any tips for when I'm buying alcohol and cigarettes?
Well for one, you're alot more likely to get caught if you don't shave than if you do. Believe it or not, most store owners know kids think facial hair makes them look older than they really are, go figure. I know you thought growing a beard was the most brilliant idea ever, but trust me, clean shaven is the way to go. It will make it appear as if you have nothing to hide.

If you get a fake idea, make sure its out of state. Most store owners don't know what out of state IDs look like, so they have less to compare it to.

The best places to buy alcohol with a fake are supermarkets, late at night. This is because most cashiers at grocery stores don't really care, and if you have some kind of documentation, they aren't likely to get in trouble because they can plead ignorance. If you go to a liquor store, you're more likely to have your ID scrutinized and confiscate. Cops keep liquor stores on their toes by setting up sting operations involving minors, so they tend to always be suspecting of young people.

In all honesty, you're going to get caught with it someday, I've never known anyone to have one for more than a year before it was confiscated. Best case scenario, they'll just take your fake ID and you'll be out whatever you paid for it. Worst case scenario, you get taken home to your parents in a cop car, and they get fined, ouch.

Topless ladies can be viewed by anyone of any age. In fact the very first thing most people see when they come out of the womb is a topless lady. So anyone blocking access to such a thing due to age is a hypocrite.
Yep, I remember when my niece was born at the Brookings Medical Clinic Memorial Strip Bar.
Unless you're bottle-fed, when you're born, one of the first things you get to see (after the inside of a vagina) is an exposed breast. You get that nipple thrust right up in your face and then you're expected to suck on it. Then for the next 18 years of your life, your crazy country does its best to make sure that you never get to see that nipple ever again, because it might "damage" you or "desensitise" you somehow. Pfft.
Eh, that's just Ame...Ah screw it, you all know where I'm heading with this.

There is nothing out there that I'm not already prepared for.

And even if there was something I wasn't prepared for, it definitely wouldn't waste time asking for age.

Who's lying? I have used a very advanced hypnosis technique to make myself believe I was born on April 1st 1800.

But seriously,
No. God no. What the hell would I DO with my time otherwise, I mean come on, there's only SO MUCH left 4 dead & fallout 3 can fill of my time. I'm probably some kind of psychotic outburst time-bomb waiting to happen, but nothing's happened so far. Number 4 represent!

quite often I lie about my age but that's for quite a lot of stuff. Not always porn as is hinted in answer 4 of the poll. I lie because if I don't lie, then I don't get to play/watch what I want.

I'm thirty, and I gotta say, if it wasn't for snot-nosed punks under the age of sixteen, maybe they wouldn't censor Escape to the Movies and Zeropunctuation. Some of us don't need our parent's consent to hear dirty words, Escapist Magazine.
I always thought that the blurred images in ZP were more for people who watched it at work than concern for the children.

I usually select my birth date as 2-29-1984. I think i'm mature enough to handle violent games, and i don't really look for porn anymore.

if it concerns M/R-rated content (fictional violence...c'mon guys), then you can be damn sure I'll lie. their pathetic attempts at censorship makes me laugh.

if it's porn, then i back away from it before i even hit a verification page. >.> never found it too appealing, to be frank...

I always lied on those things before I was old enough.

I still lie on some of them (specifically, the ones that ask for your birthdate), because I'm paranoid.

I'm a bit of a luddite, and didn't bother much with the Internet until I was well past 18.

However, I'm not entirely comfortable with the idea of sharing personal info with my computer, and I always feel it's just a little bit rude of it to expect me to give away my D.O.B. before I log onto certain sites - so, as a sort of douche-baggish security measure, I always input my actual month and day of birth, but give my birth year as 1917.

the internet wasn't hi tech enough to ask those things when i was underage... kind of hard to do something like that when it's just a wall of text.. but then again ASCII porn wasn't nearly as entertaining.

Uh, I dunno dude, I'm quite happy not seeing that particular nipple again... That might actually damage me...

Anyway, i don't think it affects kids at all, I'm fine.
