Man. She had it down exactly! It blew my soul! I wanted to fucking congratulate her on being aware of the ridiculousness that is a posse of sorts. To explain the people well, the story goes like this:

While everyone else leaves a party at around 12 or 1 to go and you know, eh eh, they just think that it is naturally okay to just pass out on the couch at the place their at currently. No thoughts about it.

That, my friends as McCain might say, is the story and the moral too. It's pretty fine how each group of friends has their own unspoken rules but it also is silly how each group can end up fairly unhealthy after too much time spent together. Not unhealthy, but your reality changes depending on who you have around you for long periods of time. You don't change but your reality and how you perceive things may. It was both comforting and unnerving to see this in other groups of relationships besides my own.

We really should all try and stay 20 for a while. I'm not sure anyone can prepare for the following years.

And, on another note, Cal, I totally DO have autism and am schizophrenic guuurrrl. Self diagnosed.
