So, Welcome back to the cave of crazy. I'd apologise about yesterdays...ahem, diet rant but i refuse so there. I feel better today, perhaps it was just low blood sugar or something....anyway.
Do you realise how many different friends you have? I'm not talking number of people here I'm talking about the different types. We'll make a list, I like lists. So in no order what so ever
1. The confessor: This is the person you tell everything too. Even the stuff that you should probably keep to yourself. If they ever turn on you you're in serious trouble and might even end up in jail because they know things about you that will cause your parent to turn from you in fear and disgust and make lesser mortals cower in terror. These friends are most likely ones from when you were younger and they know the thing you did at Larry's house party when his parents were out of town, and they always will.
2. The drinking buddy: You may find it awkward to talk to this person normally but get some drinks in you and suddenly your best pals until the booze runs out. Ironically most of the pictures you have on facebook will be of this person since drinking pics make it up more often. However if you meet them in the cold light of day all you can manage is an awkward hiya Most likely you know this person through work/uni or the pub you both drink at.
3. The one subject girl/guy: Wither it be sports, your course at uni, your job whatever, you always find yourself talking about this one thing with them. You literally have nothing else in common, pray you never run out of things to say. Because it will go like this.
"So then I said to my boss"
"Wait you told me this one already"
"Oh...." sounds of running feet and then a door slam and a car peeling away.
4.The best friend: now on the surface this may look like the confessor but the best friend is more like having another girl/boy friend, usually of the same sex though. This is the person you have ever adventure with , who shares your highs and lows and will always be there for you. Be honest when you need them to be and dishonest when you need that too. If you find a best friend try and hold on to them because when it all goes wrong its them who will help you clean it up.
5. the friend of a friend: GAH! nothing is worse than having someone hang around you who you have literally nothing in common with except that you both know the same person. You meet this one at house parties and weddings allot. Conversations revolve around starting topics then the other person shooting them down.
"Did you see the game?"
"I dont like sports, did you hear in the news that...."
"you watch that crap? want a beer?"
"I don't drink" aaaaand so on shudder.
6.Uh hi.....friend: for what ever reason you have known this person for longer than six months, you may know their cats names, where their tattoo is and the embarrising thing they did in the bar after three tequela sunrises but you don't know their name. It happened at a party you didn't catch it when you were introduced and now its far, far too late. The longer it goes on the more gut churningly bad it gets. Then one day you have to introduce them to someone else...by this point you have looked after their kids....and you have to say.
"John this iiiiiiiiiiiiiiis....."
and hope they get the hint
7.Oh god its this guy quick hide damn he saw me: You know him , you loathe him, your stuck with him. A co worker most likely who you cant stand but you spend more time with him than your partner and for some reason he cant get the hint you don't like him. No matter how many cancelled plans or simple refusals he wont get the hint.
Thats all the ones I can think of right now but i'd be fun if you guys added some more in the comments
No naming names lets keep it above the belt :)
