C’mon, black out drunk at 21 ? Most have been drinking well before that.

That’s also the age you can run for Representative. At 30 you can be a Senator or a Governor in my State. At 35 you can be President or Vice President. (in US)
Let’s all celebrate by running for office! ;D

It really, really depends on the people involved: not just the person turning 21, but also their friends. I know a lot of people who did exactly that. On the other hand I don’t drink so uhm… I don’t remember my 21st birthday for entirely different reasons.

Don’t forget turning 25 and celebrating by going and renting a car!

Turned 20 in Japan this summer.
It was freaking awesome.

So awesome that I accidentally sat on my birthday cake.

I’ll be turning 20 in Japan, but I don’t think I’ll participate in anything…dont particuarlly feel like listening to some dude’s speech on entering society as an adult. Just gonna skip to the drinking (jk)
