You meet a lot of people...

but sometimes you are lucky enough to meet someone and just click. I don't mean sexually or emotionally. I mean just in your personalities and you just become buddies instantly. I was lucky enough to meet someone like that. It doesn't happen very often, even in your own country, so it's pretty crazy right now. Finally I have a friend here who I can sit down and just talk about useless and countless amounts of stuff with (as long as our bad backs hold out).

There is one pet peeve of mine that I hear and see all the time. I have done it myself, but after I would correct it and make sure the person understood what the real deal is. I really dislike when people say "I have a lot of good friends". I'm sorry, but most people only have a few friends you can call "true". Just because you know someone, or had a drink with them, doesn't make them your good friend, a buddy maybe, but are they going to hold it down for you when the times comes around... probably not. So next time you are talking about how many friends you have, just remember that they are probably acquaintances, or buddies, but not friends. This isn't a rant against any one person, I just felt I needed to share my opinion on this topic because saying you have a hundred friends, doesn't make you gain anymore respect with anyone else (unless your in high school).
