We know, we know…. This can’t be real… TWO BLOG POSTS IN ONE
WEEK?!?! We realize that we’ve
potentially given you, our 6-7 devoted readers, the idea that we only post once
every 3 months so we decided to mix it up and post yet again!
Since our last post highlighted some reasons as to why we
have such an amazing group of friends, we decided to be generous and give you
something to help you make your own awesome friends.* A lot of our bonding occurred and still
occurs while we seriously discuss and argue and contemplate really provocative
and deep questions of life.** So we’ve
turned some of our favorites into a list of conversation starters that we think
all friend groups should use… They worked out pretty well for us.

All this talk about friends got me wondering ... what is my recipe for best friends? I would say you need to be like minded with similar personalities, spend lots of time together, share personal information about yourselves, yada, yada, yada.
ReplyDeleteBefore all that happens there is a crucial ingredient: getting blackout together. All that other stuff is important too (maybe), but you really find out if you're going to like someone after a few solid drinking sessions with them. Let's get real team; were any of us really good friends before a few booze filled, wake up feeling like death, regrettable/priceless/weird (circle one of your choice) nights?
So here is my recipe for making a great group of friends:
1. Assemble a group of at least loosely related people
- You'll need a few to be really extroverted
2. Administer massive amounts of alcohol
3. Have some weird/interesting conversations that at least one person participating in the convo will not remember
4. Do some funny shit at the bar
5. Take lots of pictures with these people you barely know
- Guys: always complain about taking pictures
6. Repeat a minimum of 2-3 more times
7. Weed out the losers
8. Hang out soberly
And there ya go ... a tried and true way to make some new friends. Trust me it works.
