TFLN: Why I love my family edition
Me: Man, this douchebro just had the gall to stand there holding a Keystone and tell me I need better drinks than Blue Moon.
Brother: Fuck that. Kill the douchebros, then introduce the survivors to an 'import'. It's called beer.

looks like we have the same opinion on interacting with people. :P
My fascination with deciphering people is just unending.
My favorite thing about new people is finding out their stories. People are like new books to read, albeit heavily censored ones. Stick around awhile and you might get a slightly more truthful version. Be there long enough and you just might get the version that they tell themselves. The best part of that one is seeing how it’s constantly rewritten.

Asking someone about their past relationships is asking them the story of how they became themselves.
We’re all indelible, we leave our mark on those in our lives.
When you answer that question, you’re defining to yourself the moments that mattered most and left the biggest impression.
