Molehill to mountain....

Ever go out for one little thing and end up on an EPIC adventure?.... no, me neither.

But last night I DID go out for one little thing and end up on a mediocore adventure...

I was sposed to be going out for dinner with an old friend, at at first I really couldn't be arsed because I was pretty determined to do some work that evening, but I thought 'what the hey!' and went out because I am SOOOOOOO hardcore.  So we went out for dinner and were having a nice calm time, untill we saw some OTHER people that neither of us had seen for a long time either... then dinner turned into drinks, drinks turned into a club... and as often happens after that, the club turned into A COMPLETE DISASTER. There were six of us at this point, plus me, and we were having a great time, except 5 of us had been there since 9, and two girls weirdly turned up at about half midnight and took control of the whole night, leading us to a club none of us had ever heard of, and then expecting us to just follow them. Unfortunately, circumstance had it that we had no choice to follow them, seeing as two of us were staying at thier house, and of the three remaining, one of them was the birthday boy and was quite up for going. But then after paying an ridiculous amount of money to get into this feeble excuse of an establishment, two of us (the two staying at the two girls who just turned up's house) felt a little sick and just wanted to go home. The two girls that just turned up didnt want to go home, because they'd just turned up. The rest of us were more than happy to go home (but were a little peeved that we just payed money to get into somewhere we were only in for an hour). and to make things worse, birthday boy's girlfriend has just called up to shout at him! Yipee!!!

Now... the issue in this story is all about who was in the right. The two that felt sick couldn't leave because they needed to stay at the two who turned up late. The two that turned up late had the power because if they didnt want to go home... the other two obviously couldnt go with them. But is that fair? Surely if you offer someone a space in your house its because you want that person to come out and hence they are your friend? and surely if everyone else wants to go home... you should follow suit? All the evidence points to this very clear fact. Letting someone stay at your house because they live 40 miles away shouldn't give you power, and if you act like it does, you are obviously a dickhead that doesn't deserve the friends you've got.
