The big thing that sucks about being 20 is how you are SO CLOSE to the drinking age but not quite there yet.
Another age that pissed me off was 16. I was deemed responsible and capable enough to drive. But I could not get into an R-rated movie without an adult chaperone.
So basically I was old enough to drive anywhere I wanted in any passenger vehicle of my choosing (even a 6000 pound Excurison!) even though it requires experience and skill, and puts the lives of yourself and others at risk if you screw up. But I was deemed young enough that if I saw a scary movie, I might get emotionally scarred and have nightmares or wet the bed or something. WTF?!
