Mercury 33-Year-Old Gets Carded For Cigarettes

Posted by Matt Davis on Mon, Jun 25 at 12:08 PM

Last night, Mercury promotions director Zach Hull (33) was carded for cigarettes at the Plaid Pantry on 20th and Powell. “You’ve got a baby face,” the clerk allegedly told him. Hull admits to being “pretty fucked up” at the time, but come on, Plaid Pantry clerk…this man is old enough to smoke!zachhull.jpgHULL: “Baby-faced…

I'm 34 and still get carded occasionally, but I really came in here to say: thank god you finally turned off the horrid italics. It was hurting my eyes!

Who cares? It takes four seconds out of your life. If someone asks to see your id for smokes or booze, just show it to them and keep your boring comments to yourself. It's not a compliment and it's not an insult, it's just someone doing their job.

Ritchie got up on the "boring" side of the bed this morning.

This sounds like an Onion article…

"Area Man is Carded for Cigarettes"

it's just amusing for the most part. i was pretty flabbergasted when i got carded for the movie "kinsey" when it came out. i was probably about 24 at the time. but the real question for me was what 16 year old would want to see that movie anyway? my 28 year old pal also just got carded at the fantasy video booth at pride. nice!

When I was 16, I'd have very much enjoyed seeing Kinsey. Liam Neeson obsessed with sex in the name of intellectual enrichment? That'll do for starters...

Wait twenty years. You'll kiss the clerk if they card you.

Zach definitely looks like he's smoked... er... he's old enough to smoke.

Zach has totally plagiarized my facial hair. Jerk.

Right right.

Zzzz.

That dude is old as fuck! On some serious Grandpa Munster tip.

i just like the picture.

it's the blue eyes that make him look both stoned and young. i'm 32, my hair's goin' on 5% gray, and i still get carded way more often than not for alcohol. "1975!" they say, dubiously.

it's the eyes. okay, and maybe i have big round chipmunk cheeks also.
