Today, it's my 21st birthday. My parents' gift was a case of non-alcoholic beer, to "prepare" me for when I "turn 21." My parents can't even remember how old I am. FML

Go out and buy yourself some alcohol, get yourself completely wasted, and you won't even remember that they forgot.

Because the only difference between beer and soda is the alcoholic content...? WTF you on about? You ever had soda that tastes like beer?

If the only difference is the alcoholic content, if they gave him Non-alcoholic beer, then it would be soda

Non-Alcoholic beer isn't completely alcohol free.

Well by definition it would be similar to soda... Water, carbonation, flavoring, sugar etc. Yes it would be the shitties soda ever but still...

He did say SOME of his best times... Either way, by no means does that indicate that he lives in boredom. Even though psychoactive substances are a big part of my life, I have to agree that I've experienced some of my best times sober. I really appreciate the pure mental clarity.

Give them placebos to prepare them for their actual medication.

You should go buy some and chug a case in front of them. After you through with it, be like "what now?! BAM! I AM 21, bitches! I bought this myself! MYSELF!" and walk away. They will be mortified and feel bad all at the same time.

I like how "Europe" is a country. Seriously though in some COUNTRIES of the [CONTINENT] Europe the legal age is 18 or even 20. I also believe there are some countries without any age limit?

Most (almost all) European countries have a lower age limit than the US, and even still it mostly applies to the purchase of alcohol. Drinking in private settings isn't as regulated. I've bought alcohol in several European countries while under the age limit, and I haven't been asked to provide proof of age. The most they've done was just ask me if I'm old enough to drink.

He never said Europe was a country, he just didn't specify the obvious. And the drinking ages in Europa varies from 14 to 18 for mild shit under 5% and then you have to be 20 to buy stronger thingies, at least in Norway. C:

He said that all of Europe had an age requirement of 16, which is false. *shrug*

Go to your parents beer fridge, take all his beer and replace it with your non-alcoholic beer.
