my friends are stupid...like really stupid

He went into the navy a few months ago. A different friend called me up this morning to tell me about this...

http://www.pensacolacitygov.com/ppd/press.asp?action=detail&ID=5028

Im 19 now and my record stands thusly:

1 friend is married
3 friends engaged
1 friend has a son
1 friend will have a kid in a few months
1 friend is muscle behind hardcore drug dealing
1 friend is dealing the hardcore drugs
3 friends have done time, 2 for embezzlment/robbery
2-3 friends regularly do coke
1 friend is homeless, with several people looking to kill him
2 friends are strippers
3 friends are dead

nobody in that list is over 20.

what the fuck is wrong with my friends. this seriously depresses me.

Get the fuck out of Colorado.

i think Dave's right. theres something not right here with the "mountain air" . sorry to kinda sound like an ass, but at least your not a f*ck up Tim.

Just think, every minute you spend on AF the company you keep is improving out of sight.

:icon16:

wow, i thought my friends were bad!
1 in jail for murder... one was a heroin addict for a year(since recovered)
one is in jail for driving with a suspended license and crashing into a cop car on oxycotins.. one does 1000 dollars in coke a week...
glad to see someone knows where im coming from! just keep yourself clean!

no different then my story only more friends...moving around.

meh, maybe thats why

its called life after high school. Usually its the popular kids who did nothing but slack off and be cool that get thrown in the real world, still havent grown up, and just end up being fuck ups there whole life.

sure...after high school.

kustm, you just venture into the real world?

heck, one of my friends from italy had a kid about a month ago. she just graduated last year so yeah, walked pregnant.

id make a list but it's too long. the jist,

4 are married
5 have kids...wait, darn, maybe it's 7.
about 10 deal drugs or more. lost track of that awhile ago. and the amount that do them, more than marijuana ugh...then again a lot are european.
4 dead and add 6 more due to Iraq.
3 going through divorce

ok, that's all i can remember. too many to keep up with. but yeah, im not sure what there's to be depressed about?

What is this, a "my life is crappier" pissing contest?

lol

never said it was crappier just saying that's where my list lies with stupid friends, i dont let it affect me. besides, im happy for a lot of them, except for the illegal ones, but I'm happy they're not in jail yet, i guess.

:icon16:

Sounds like a list of reasons not to live in America.

Or a trailer park.

This just in:

Colorado really is fucked (http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,20867,20489844-1702,00.html).

ya know, a lot of those are friends from italy so...a bunch of military brats. we've been exposed too much.

I think a couple of people in this thread need to be _much_ more selective when choosing friends !

meh, i only chose a few that were already in the situation. others are 32, 24 or good deal older than me so, makes more sense. still, i do know people my own age, ish.

I only have a mother and father left for family. I doubt any of you can top that.

I only have a mother and father left for family. I doubt any of you can top that.wow sounds deep man. Yeah I really cant top that. The only thing wrong with the guys I use to hang out with is that they are too stupid to realize that they are WHITE and not BLACK!!! lol fuckin douche bags I tell ya. http://malibusmostwanted.warnerbros.com/assets/gallery/1.jpghttp://malibusmostwanted.warnerbros.com/assets/invis.gif


other than them my other friends are awesome people.

Do you need a hug? :rolleyes:

Florida used to be the most retarded state in the Union.

Florida used to be the most retarded state in the Union.

Is Colorado the new Florida?

Lets not get carried away here. Florida is far more retarded than most can comprehend. Especially when you live in the capital city.

But notice this failed robbery took place in Pensacola FL

And it sounds like a lot of you guys need to find some new friends.

tallahasee is pretty screwed up and so is miami.

jaz aint bad, too much like the north though.

Okay, no one said this so I gotta. The people you choose to be around reflect who you are.

Be careful guys people can really screw you over. Even if you had nothing to do with the issue.

I've had many friends just like that since freshman year in high school. Many have been replaced over the years, and I'm sure quite a few more will be. It's just part of life. Just don't get caught up in their stupidity.

yeah. a lot of my friends i still talk to, doesnt mean i hang out with them everyday. i knew these people for years and then stuff happens when you seperate. some live near and i have lunch or hang out like 5 times a year and others every other day. but they're still friends ya know.

i guess it can define, but that's a lot to go through. i never really believed in that anyhow.

^Its important to differentiate between friends, acquaintances, and associates.

Many of my friends have become associates through the years for various reasons, and others have become just acquaintances. I only have 3 close friends who I've known for 12, 14, and 16 years (I'm 23).

Yes, its all sad when your freinds turn out to be wankers, but I say if you can't beat em, join em. Like me, I'm now a wanker.........................

oh i know. i have hundreds of acquaintances. associates...eh? seriously, im not sure i consider anyone i know an associate except maybe co-workers which sounds like a better term or by associate, a partner in crime so-to-speak. which, if it's that, then i got those as well.

still, i know who my friends are and most of these people i could stay with right now if i had to except the ones w/ boyfriends but the married ones i can. oh yeah, like 70% are girls.

but i have no close friends as many might consider close, mainly cause i live no where long enough. try not to get that close, but i have the ability to get gain the trust like that.

but seriously, what the heck is an associate???

I gave up friends years ago.

but seriously, what the heck is an associate???

Here's the way it breaks down for me:

Close friends: The brothers I never had. Wouldn't hesitate to beat the living shit out of somebody posing harm to my mom or sister if I'm not around. They are obligated to help me move apartments.

Friends: Mostly people I hang out with when I'm away at school. Only known them for a few years but generally trust them almost at the same level as my close friends at home. They know they're on the list of people I'll call to help me move apartments.

Associates: People that hang out in the same crowd as me. I have their phone number, but they wouldn't be the first person I call to see whats hapening on the weekend. I probably would never hang out with them unless its with the group. If they have a large pickup truck, I'll probably call them when I'm moving apartments.

Acquaintances: I might have their phone number but I'd probably never call it. I run into them at parties etc and acknowledge their presence, perhaps even a short conversation. If I call them to help me move apartments, they would pretend they don't know me.

sucks to be some of you. my friends are mostly pretty fine. most of them smoke mary, some of them very regularly. one of them does coke on occasion (he started this summer, he's done it about 4 or 5 times) smokes marijuana like most people smoke cigarettes, and smokes cigarettes more than most people (although he's trying to quit smoking and doing drugs since it's hard to balance that and engineering). one of my friends with whome i've lost contact went to jail for assault. other than that my friends are pretty good, none of them have died, they're all going to post secondary school of some sort (either college or university) so i'm not worried for them.

i have about 10 friends ive known for 13 years. we are really all still close, and when we have a party, they are all there. none have died, and none have gone to secondary school, but we all have street smarts and have good jobs.

none have died, and none have gone to secondary school, but we all have street smarts and have good jobs.

wow..none have gone to high school? good luck...but anyway...i take the first situation as: hey thats life...its gritty and not perfect like hollywood says. a good 75% of the girls i know are pregnant or have kids. pretty much every one i know is a weed head/coke fiend or a drug dealer...marriage..haha..a LOT of my home boys have been to jail or still are. and..some have died...but..thats life..it sux

most went through highschool, none to college...

Sounds like a list of reasons not to live in America.

I know no one who deal drugs, i have no friends who know someone who deal drugs. I know no one who's ever done drugs. I have never seen drugs IRL, besides aspirin and stuff.

I know no one whos been killed by another person, nor someone who have killed another person. I know no one who own a gun, for other use than hunting/competing. I have never seen a gun outside a home/shooting range/shop.

Though i still think America is a better place to live.

Should we infer from that that regardless of how f'ed up this country is, the opportunities outweigh the negatives? Or is it that the opportunities in Sweden aren't as attractive as the ones found here and you'd be willing to risk the exposure to all the crazy stuff that goes on here? So really my question is: Good America > Bad America OR Good America > Good Sweden (or other countries)

More on topic- Now that I think about it, until I went to college all the people I knew/know fell into the category of drug dealer/ uses drugs/ no college (and still none)/ killed somebody (only 2 people I regularly assiciate with)/ been killed (RIP Ron and Wayne). Now my circle of friends has a better profile

wow, that's too bad Ace. Be thankful you're still in a decent position in life opposed to your friends. Just asking, you ever try to change them?

Holy crap - I'm almost 40 and I've had a lot of friends who've had kids, but none in their teens. I can think of only one that’s committed a crime worse then drunk driving.

Sounds like your choice in friends gravitates you towards, shall we say, the more unscrupulous?

Is it possible that your friends might be a touch conservative Yogs?

What a shame...

The thing is, they were never really "bad kids" until they made the one mistake that got them into trouble.

Funny how there's always one kep point that started it all, whether major or minor, it's not like even as kids they were kleptos or something.

Sounds like me. I was for the most part a good kid. Most police contact I had was when a cop made me and my friends stop riding our bikes on the sidewalk.

Then I went and got in trouble in college for random crap and now I'm kinda screwed. But its still up to you whether or not you'll let it run you into the ground and turn you into a complete failure or you can try to learn and make yourself better. The second way is a lot more work, but the first way is a lot shittier.
