Happy Birthday Me!

[Jstreet]

Today is my birthday, and I'm 18. If you are an American then, you are aware that this is the age you are considered an adult. Well, along with being an adult comes responsibilities. I've never really bother to learn what all I have to do as an adult. A few things I do know of are:
-Changing my car title in my name
-Same for my house
-Registering for citizenship and voting

Is there anything else that I should be doing? Like things that are essential?

Register for the draft. :P

Well, you could do what most 18 year olds do and go to a pub, buy lots of drinks and get pi... very drunk.

 

[The Cry of Fallen Angels]

You can now officially be a paedophile.

Seriouisly though, cn't you look those things up somewhere? They should be spread on a government site or such.

 

[Brimstone-x]

Umm, You can prepare for colledge, maybe get a Half-time job...lotsa stuff.

 

[m_artist200]

College would be a nice thing to do, seeing as most jobs require a degree of one kind or another.

:P and ya, expect a letter/form from the government requiring you to enlist for selective service.

This isn't a happy birthday topic, although it appeared so at first glance.

It's just thinly disguised!

Man Treg you have a real talent for pointing out things that have already been pointed out. That's twice today already! Mod power ftw!

Anyway if you're eighteen you can star in porn. And knowing you, J-Street, I will be looking for you on Blacks on Blondes.

i dunno dude there was time for me to sneak a post in between...>>_>

 

[Jstreet]

Wait wouldn't registering for the draft mean they can draft you for war? =x
That's not up my alley. Uncle Sam is a biotch imo, but what would happen if I didn't?
--------------------
15 pages...':|
That would be the definition of hell if I have to go through that. I hate paperwork.

Well I'd kill to have 17 for one year again. I have the right to vote here though

 

[Monkey_Salt]

er yeah unfortunately though J-Street it's a national law that you have to register for the draft if you are a male in the US when you turn 18...yeah....

also but lotto tickets, i don't think anyone mentioned that.

I will too.

Man, that's pretty tight.

Here in the UK it is:
16 to smoke
16 to play the lottery
17 to drive a car
18 to drink alcohol

Here at 16 you are legally an "adult". You can get a job from then on and stuff.

 

[Roman Candle]

Although you can't actually leave school until the end of the acedemic year in which you turn 16. Also my minimum wage is something like £3.50

Are 16 your considered an adult? you can't vote, can't drink a beer, can't buy porn. can't make porn. can't watch scary movie 1 at the cinema.

I'm pretty sure we are considered adults once we are legally allowed to do those things [legally, not down the park by the swings].
