Running into people that are in town for the Holidays

Post by InvincibleCakeEater »

A couple stories I'm gonna have to post, but I need some sleep first.

But it's really annoying to run into people you haven't seen in like 8 years that think you're best friends with them.

Ok, I'm gonna finish my thought on this thread.

What the [expletive] guy I hardly knew? Sorry that you're friends with some of my friends that I'm buying a round for. Don't be offended when you ask something stupid like "hey, where's my shot?" and you get an answer something like, ask the bartender and give her 4 bucks.

And no, girl I went to high school with. It's not crazy that we hooked up. We dated like 3 different times and we were both single and drunk at a party together. What's crazy is that you've sent me 3 texts asking me what I'm doing on New Years.

I'm not sorry I didn't bail you out best friend. You were drinking and driving. I offered you a ride. You refused. Quit being pissed at me and be happy you didn't wreck.

I'm not so sure in a case like this....
You were drinking and driving. I offered you a ride. You refused.
Maybe sitting in jail overnight would make this friend realize how stupid his act was. What kind of idiot refuses an offer to be picked up after they've been drinking? Answer : someone who deserves to sit in jail after a DWI

I went through the exact same situation a few years ago. My best buddy is tanked next to me, I try to drive him home. It's hard to get a 6'7", 320 pound man to do what you tell him to if he's snockered. I left, he went to Pop's, got nailed at 5am going home. I missed his calls from the station - I was asleep - but I wouldn't have gone anyway. I got my DUI and spent the night in jail. I deserved it. And I deserved the awful 8am call to my parents to pick me up. He never gave me a guilt trip about it though, he took the responsibility as he should've. That was 3 years ago and he's finally getting his license back now.
