re: Things Friends Do that Aggravate You

Can’t stand up to their wife

Always talking about health related shite. Dude we’re not that old and IMO dwelling on that shite doesn’t help.

If you are a grown man that drinks your standard cup of coffee any which way but straight up black, I am judging you hard for it. I’ve got a couple of friends that order the mocachocabullshits and I experience secondhand embarrassment for them when they order.

I will put milk in my coffee, but if you are a man that has every had more than one pumpkin spice latte and/or consistently has “coffee” that is closer to a milkshake; then please re-evaluate your life.

I’m 34 and think you’re a giant bitch letting those limp wrists get a workout as you stir your cute little creamers and sugars into your coffee because you don’t like the taste.

I put half and half and a bit of sweetener in my Community Dark Roast. Don’t like it? Meet me at Sonic.

It’s coffee, not a dick-measuring contest.

I had a friend who would take a frozen pizza/whatever out of the freezer and cook it, then tape the box up and put it back in the freezer backwards so it looked like I still had food.

That's funny once. Twice means war.

Lots of “I drink my coffee like my mom does” people in this thread.

I'm 85 - best friend was several years older - died 15 years ago. Had a penny-pinching defect. It was humorous (and sometimes costly) to watch the ways he would save a dime.
- our hunting lease was about a 600 mile round trip - I drove every time and he never offered to pay for any gas - ONE time, I suggested he drive. By the time we had gone 100 miles he started "shopping for gas" at every station we passed. I got a little peeved first but decided to ignore it by pretending to be sleeping. After a 3 hours averaging 10 miles an hour, he filled up and we completed the trip with no more shopping stops.

- I have hundreds of similar instances

- I think of him almost every day - wish he were still here. I'd drive every time if he were.

edit - I read the thread -
SO - in case my friend is watching, let me state - it's a good thing you drank your coffee black - that is a bridge too far. God Bless - and save a place for me - I'll buy.

One of my best friends is a functional alcoholic.

I had one of those friends too. This guy would start texting several nights a week, non-stop during football games or while watching political news programs. He'd give a running commentary about whatever was on. I'd have preferred a phone call and never could stand non-stop texting (reminds me of a teenage girl), but he was a friend, so like you, I would not ignore him when he tried to contact me.

I put up with his bullshite for a long time until just recently. He just became too mean to endure when he was so drunk.

Every couple of months he'd have an extreme episode. Usually this behavioral change from friend to a-hole was sudden, like a light switch had gone off in his head. The next day or so, he'd apologize profusely for being a shithead, and say he wouldn't do it again. After this became a long time pattern, I finally cut bait.

I really feel sorry for this guys wife, she must see it a lot more often than his few remaining friends do.
