You can lie about your age pretty much anywhere except on government forms and in court. AFAIK, employers are not allowed to ask your age (with cops and military being exceptions). Lying to chicks about your age is fine if you stick to script and get away with it although there is a narrow segment who will consider it "rape".
The beauty of this troll is to force the government to consider how far they will indulge people's delusions and false reality for administrative purposes. There was a guy who changed his gender to get cheaper car insurance. So what about changing your gender or race to qualify for affirmative action programs in employment or scholarships? Mucking with age has a few effects because there are certain youth programs and of course social security.
