Age restrictions

Same here, but you have to be able to deal with the possible consequences

18+ games/movies etc.

Fun fact:
Here, in Poland (dunno if in America) few stations put on-screen restrictions for certain programes (smalle yellow traignale with a number 7, 12 or 16) Few days after it was introduced, there was a comment on some news site:

[i]Wait, it's the age restriction? I thought that it shows how many beers you have to drink to understand the programe[/i]

Gambling, for the most part. I'm not into sex (and there isn't much of an "age limit" so long as you and your partner are within three or four years of each other), and drinking underage is pretty easy and I'm [b]allowed[/b] to do it all the time, but I hate it when my dad goes to Vegas and gambles his ass off and I have to sit at the damn hotel room or in the pool. I know everything there is to know about gambling, card games, et cetera, and I'm more responsible than the retard drunk people at the casinos, and they still profusely say no. <___<

Than whoever sold you that game is suppose to be fired on the spot since that violates the biggest rule in Gamestop. Unless you had a guardian.

@Horrific: As a former Gamestop employee, try to buy a mature game again and if they stop you for not being 18 ask them to bring the manager. Since by law you have to be 17 or older as of 2008(?) M-17 and you should be legally able to buy the game and they have no rights to say no. (You cannot however buy AO games)

As for me, the only thing that I care about is participating in certain events like MAG Lan-Party requires one to be 18 or older and finding a job is almost impossible for a 17 year old where I live. Bright side is birthday is in 1 month.
