I am so glad the people that I call friends, both online and offline, are pretty rockin'. We don't play mind games, lie to each other, we aren't shitty with one another, we don't fight and air our business. We respect one another and the friendship(s) we've built over the long years.
When I was younger I had a handful of 'friends' who would do those things. They'd lie, manipulate, be the frenemy, break trust and really just be crappy. It took a kick in the ass and a huge life change to see that behavior is just not something I want to be around or have in my space. If they are doing it to other people, you can bet your ass they'll think they can try it with me. Nope. No. Way. I've got a pretty good radar/intuition for those things, but it isn't infallible.
Not everyone has the same criteria in choosing friendships and that's cool. My moral compass just tends to point towards the 'don't be a shitty person'.
I'm glad my friends are legit my friends and I don't have to worry about those things with them.
So.. thanks for that my homies. :)

Sad that most people's criteria for friends as that they don't do you any harm.
I mean....that's it? Damn.

Depending on how many times they've been screwed over, it's probably come to be one of the more important criteria they look for.
Depending on their upbringing and character, most people shouldn't take most things so seriously.
In America, we define being screwed over by a neighbor stealing $50 from their car that they left open.
In 98% of the rest of the world, a habibi defines being screwed over as one of their concubines giving up the location of his whole posse, and them all getting the seal team 9'd.
We are jaded af in this country. Just sad to see it hit people with seemingly some substance to them.
Sometimes it's easier and better to just walk away and do something else. There is no sense in getting worked up over the stupidest shit. just go 'Oh, well' and have a juice box, a laugh and move on.
Like I don't need to sit here and rack my brain for that stupid photobucket account just because it randomly popped in my head and now I'm curious as hell and wondering what I had in there. I don't need to sit here and have a hissy because my brain has been a cesspool lately. Plus, photobucket is dumb anyways.
Adulting.. I give it two thumbs up.

Harry Potter dragons. Harry Potter is my jam. Either a Welsh Green or a Swedish Short-Snout.
