When you can make that response a present tense scenario. It is really pathetic. Almost to an unbelievable degree. I mean, if you are tight (even somewhat) w/ them. Teeth grindingly awkward. But if they are buddies of your buddies then it’s like, WTF bro had too much too fast. Just let ‘em run around. Be sure he doesn’t fall into the campfire, fall off a cliff or drown. We’ll make homeboys hangover extra special.
You lack any context to make that statement about me. Here are a few things. I live in the south. I don't seek them out but due to the hue of my skin they volunteer things. You know nothing about me. So get a mouthgaurd for that teeth grinding problem but don't expect me to hold back when I tell people what the haters think. I know this first hand but to you since you aren't ever around any of them you only a idea about it. A theory. You don't live in it so your opinion is at best a fantasy.
Taking it a little personally eh? I didn’t have you in mind when writing that bit. Truth is I have had mormon friends and it is embarrassing more so when it is someone you like as opposed to someone you are not close to. It is when your first impression of that person is made by watching them go light speed head first into immediately overdoing it. That was the difference I was attempting to point out. I could explain it again if you like, but I can’t understand it for you.
