Beer Age

I think it worked because everyone always says 10...

I said I would like beer 9 times a week and it said I was 17, I am 18 but I guess that is because it is 2006 now.

off by 1 on me....oh well

Lush, I know you're slow an all, but its 2006!

I didnt read the last line so I had to recheck all my calcs (in my head of course) because it kept coming up 1 short.

Yeah, since it only works for 2005, you automatically have to put 1755 no matter when your birthday is. It will work every time that way.

unless you already had your birthday this year. Which is most likely true for lush, right? Or maybe he lost count and it really didn't work for him...

OK Mercer ... help us out here. How did they figure out 1755 as the magic number?
Do you think the beer truck drivers came up with this?
Whats going on here? Is this some kind of voodoo?

I think he was reffering to the 1754 or 1755, and that's only one more so that would automatically add one year to the final answer.

They need to update this for 2006 by changing the numbers to 1755 and 1756.

This is the ONLY YEAR THIS WILL EVER WORK of course (at least for these two numbers, anyway... )

I think I first saw this in 2000. They just update the numbers every year, that's all.

I thought I'd throw it off cause I don't drink nor do I want beer so I started with the number 0, but it still came out. probably because subracting your birth date from 2005 will give your age.
