Brother, Pharmacist:
Just because we called doesn’t mean your prescription is ready. Listen to the message
Just because your doctor said they sent in your prescription… it means nothing. He or she probably asked an assistant to send it or put it in their inbox.
Like 1 in 3 people drove here without a drivers license.
Lmao, is the bottom one because you ask to see some ID?
Correct! It’s a disturbingly large proportion. Some medications absolutely require one, and people who just drove up will tell you they didn’t bring any form of ID whatsoever.
In my state you aren’t required to have your license with you while driving. You just have to provide it within 24 hours of getting pulled over, etc.
What the fuck is this world sometimes
I'm the
UKEngland and Wales you can't be required to carry ID at all.If the police ask you for them, you have 7 days to present them at a police station.
(Edit: really not sure it extends to Scotland where such laws often vary, and pretty sure it doesn't apply to NI, where they vary even more, especially on driving/licensing, so UK was inaccurate)
That's kind of ironic for a nation that's leaned into eyes everywhere pretty hard.
Really.
AFAIK the ID law is a consequence of a centuries-old right that you cannot be required to identify yourself if you're doing nothing wrong, and then even if you did do something wrong, you still can't be required to have brought ID with you since it's likely you didn't set out knowing you'd be doing that today.
But the surveillance/camera thing is recent, when rights of ordinary people apparently are less fashionable.
Yeah, not surprised.
Technically they can't demand ID here either, unless you're operating a motor vehicle which requires a licence. It's different on paper because theoretically driving is a choice (and actually was decades ago), but guess which kind of vehicle our entire country is built around?
Huh, I didn't know that. I used to give my da shit because he never carried his license. Though we're in NI and police checkpoints are a thing here.
You know I said UK but this is exactly the sort of law that tends to be different in NI.
I read that in Alabama (or maybe Mississippi, I can’t recall) you can drink alcohol while driving. You just can’t be above the blood alcohol concentration limit.
Louisiana had famously (or infamously) lax liquor laws for decades, so maybe that‘s what you’re thinking of. Shit like drive-thru daiquiri stores, where as long as they don’t put the straw in the cup it’s not considered an “open” container. So they can just hand you a cup full of liquor, and the straw separately.
It’s also a large part of why New Orleans developed a reputation as a party town; Louisiana kept their drinking age at 18 while every other state was at 21, so all the college freshmen/sophomores would go to Louisiana during spring break because they could drink.
TIL. Thanks.
In Canada, the drinking age is 19 everywhere except Quebec where it’s 18, so in Ottawa 18 year olds just go across the river to buy liquor.
And I thought Fat Tuesdays was weird as a visitor...
Louisiana, I believe.
Ok random question: the Walgreens near me almost never asks for my ID when I pickup my Adderall, is it really not required for that? I thought it was a hard rule to check ID for any controlled substances
