What did you do for your 21'st Birthday?

[The Dalekss]

Cried myself to sleep, and spent most the day in abject lonliness and misery.

Also, I had a conversation with a homeless man.

Actually it's my birthday next week, which I am dreading...

good for you man,keep it up

[Central Lothian]

Not much - which could be as a result of (a) it being a Bank Holiday and (b) the drinking age in the United Kingdom being 18. Although, having said that, a few friends and I did go out drinking the night beforehand with a giant comedy key around my neck (over here, you used to get the keys to the house when you turned 21).

[SaintB]

Went for a walk in Point Park and had a Gyro from Mike and Toney's.

[Keronians]

Don't know yet, I'm not even 18.

[Partybus]

I spent my 21st cruising around town, buying beer, from all of the package stores I had been buying beer from for the four or five years prior, while presenting my ID with much aplomb whether asked or not...Then I got together with my friends, and drank said beer...

[Aleckandor]

I wouldn't know because that 21st birthday of mine won't come until 7 years.

[Veblenia]

I don't really remember. 18 was the legal drinking age where I grew up, so my 21st was sort of a non-event.


Mind you, I don't remember my 18th birthday, either. <shrug>

[Unita Teccon Olympia Enclave]

I went to Vegas and played games.

[Andaluciae]

My birthday was over Christmas break, and my parents had just moved to a new place in the middle of nowhere, where I knew nobody.

Meaning: I played videogames and drank like a fish. I had a great time.

[Nadkor]

Got the train down to Dublin and had a very messy weekend. It was superb.

[Frenequesta]

I had wine for the first time. I didn't get drunk.

[Petit Chevalia]

Not a damn thing. I'm the oldest of all my friends, so no one could really come to anything resembling a 21st birthday party. I didn't tell anyone it was my birthday and played video games at home, IIRC. My brother (30 at the time) found out about that and would have none of it, so a few days later he gathered up all his friends, my sister, and some cousins and we all went to the dive-iest place he could find for drinks, so that was nice of him.

[Luziyca]

2018 called. They want me to wait so I can give the reply.

[Virabia]

While it hasn't happened yet, I can tell you that it WILL involve pot and skiing...And no drinking, alcohol is narsty

[Miasto Lodz]

I've been in a shithole called Kazuń Nowy, north-west from Warsaw enjoying another day in the army.

[Nui-ta]

I'm 18, so nothing yet.

[Samuraikoku]

Nothing. I can't do anything for my birthday since by that time, everyone is on summer holidays.

[Neo Art]

I'm fairly certain I studied for a French test.

[Raeyh]

I got taken out to a restaurant and I was going to order some wine, but then I realized I left my ID at home. So nothing special.

[The House of Petain]

Drank heavily with friends, a lot of it is a blur.

[Ethel mermania]

Girlfriend took me to dinner, than a play. I remember where we ate, I don't remember the play.

[New Joshlands]

I planned some partying in Las Vegas. Instead I spent it sick at home.

[Yewhohohopia]

Went out in my hometown, felt too old for all the clubs I went to, had sex with my ex.

[Katganistan]

Went to a comedy club where my friends were insulted and the waitress dropped drinks on me.

[Reploid Productions]

Went out to dinner with some friends and family, and ordered myself a margarita and proudly showed my ID that yes, I was legal.

I advise against drinking yourself stupid on your 21st. Better to drink yourself buzzed so that you get to enjoy being buzzed and less likely to wake up with a hangover. For me, really buzzed is about 2 large mixed drinks or 3 hard ciders (I'm a lightweight, and happy that way. I can get myself buzzed for cheap! )
