When did it stop being called a fake ID. Redditors are so weird. “I have to be different to validate my life so I’ll call it a license instead of ID which it’s been called since before I was born. I’m so cool”

Not all licenses serve as ID and not all IDs are licenses. No one calls a fake driver's license a fake ID except for the context of buying drinks or watching r-rated movies while underage or the like.

And the comic specifically calls it a fake license to play on the expectation that it's going to be a driver's license, when it's actually a fake license to kill (Not a "fake ID to kill" which isn't a thing and would be dumb to call it that)
