People Are Dull

People are dull.
It's one thing to drink beers or smoke pot... it's pretty standard nowadays... who cares.
It's another thing to brag about it and make it public knowledge like you're the coolest kid in the 9th grade... we get it... you enjoy indulging in intoxicating affairs... but lets face it... no one's impressed.

It's just so beat...
I overheard a story not too long ago in the Campus eatery that was "Oh man.. last night i went to the bar and I was so drunk I could hardly even count my money."
that was the story...
the main point being... not only can that person gain access to a bar... but they can drink and get tipsy there as well.
Wow... what a tale...
fall out of a window.

I just get really annoyed that these petty "be impressed by me," attitudes still live on into college when fucking everyone and their mom is drinking and smoking up.
If a story starts out "Oh man I was so drunk/high," then it's a bad story.
I'm not saying you can't tell a story about something funny that happened when you was "Crunked" but if you need to mention more than once that alcohol/pot was involved you're really just looking more to impress than to amuse.
Think about it like this... if that girl had told the story about getting drunk and being unable to count her money more like this, "Oh my god, I went to the bar last night... and I couldn't count my money so the bartender stuck his dick in my mouth."
That'd be a great story...
No need to over-explain the your drunk part... I mean you're at the bar... I'll just assume alcohol is involved.
And since the bartender rammed his rod in your mouth... something that is actually amusing happened.
Being unable to count cash isn't amusing... unless it's because you never learned how to count... then it'd be pretty entertaining.
But really... she just brought up the unable to count her money thing to add onto her "so drunk," idea... which was in fact the only thing she really wanted to say.

Another thing... why is drinking/smoking the fucking cornerstone of any social activity anymore?
It's not that I'm mad that you know... the guys always wanna have a few beers when they sit down to watch the game... what I mean is... those people that won't do anything UNLESS there is alcohol in someway related.
For example, when I offered out invitations to my "Chocolate Milk Challenge" earlier this year... which was a friendly competition to see which team of 4 could drink the most gallons of choc. milk... anyway, one friend of mine... who shall go unnamed... had this to say

"If i'm going to over-drink and puke it might as well be beer..."

Oh you mean... beer like every other day of your life.
I get it.. you like to drink... but why don't you try doing something a little more unique and entertaining for a change.
Needless to say that person missed out on a pretty fun experience to drink beer for the 5th time that week by himself in his basement.
But that's okay because drinking beer is much cooler doing... anything else.

Really kids what I'm trying to say is...
If your parents drink beer and smoke pot still... how cool could it really be?
