I've got carded several times at Wendover and Las Vegas. One time I was 25 and 7 months pregnant with my second son, and I was carded.  I said "You've got to be kidding, right?"  They weren't.  So I showed them my ID.  How on earth could I have ever looked under 21 in the condition I was in.

I cashier at Wal-Mart and I've carded people that are about 17ish all the way through their 30's.  Most laugh and are good natured about it.  A few are down right insulted.  When I card the younger ones, I tell them "You guys are looking younger and younger or I'm getting old because you don't look 21 to me."  A lot of the younger looking ones have their ID out and ready to give to me.  I laugh and tell them "You know how it is, don't you?"  They are 25 years old, and they look 17.

I have my "regulars" come through my line and I just check them through.  I know who they are and don't bother with the formalities.
