What would you rather do?

A few days ago, I was just sitting and talking to my friends on the deck of my cottage, and realized how much I really enjoy just sitting and talking to my friends, and listening to them...so I decided to poll you guys to see what you think?

I picked the talk. I don't like going places.

Hell, if you think about it, that's all we ever do on here... :nod:

I'm going to pick the second one, because most of my friends are too stupid to conduct an intelligent conversation.

It's not even that they're stupid, it's just that they don't think.

Both are nifty, but I voted for the former. I enjoy conversation. Crazy stuff usually ensues from it anyway. :mrgreen:

I like going places. You can usually talk and go places at the same time. Sometimes just talking is cool too, but if you start a night just sitting around talking not too much fun goes down. However, if you go places and talk you get it all:)

I'm glad not as many people disagree with me on here... I picked the first one. If I was at school, though, and asked this question to people, I'd be one of the only people to pick the first one, and everyone would give me a weird look.
Although mall and movies are fun.. they get old after a while. It's kind of rare when I'll be with a group of friends and we'll get into a really good conversation-- but when we do, it's so great.

I have more fun with my friends when we joke around and stuff. Not as much when we talk seriously.. which we do still.

That's sort of the same for me, but I usually have more fun when I'm out hanging around with them. We're more inclined to be silly if we've got something to do.

YAY!!!

Last year, I lived in a substance-free hall, which means that no alcohol/cigarettes are allowed at any time, so a few of the kids didn't drink or party or anything (the rest were in that hall because mommy and daddy put them there) On Saturday nights, we would all sit in the hall and talk about stuff for hours on end. Sometimes about life and thought-provoking questions, and sometimes about the stupidest stuff. I'll never forget those conversations and the fun times I had. Thinking about them now, I really miss them. I'd rather just sit and talk about life and learn about people than go out and get drunk or go out somewhere. :nod:

I agree.

yay us!!!! You and Susan should come down to Ann Arbor one day and join me and my friends in a late night conversation. :nod:

Naw, you should come to Burlington and rock stuff up with Simone and I. :mrgreen:

This city is boring as hell.

Bandalero · Post by **Bandalero** » 7/24/2002, 12:40 pm

yeah, we do that all the time, then we eventually end up singing corridos or "pisto music " as i like to call it. that's cool we should all get together and sing a bunch of olp songs. i had a dream once where they were singing their songs in spnish and i was like whoa!

i would have picked that one. :wink:

i like the puppy.

i picked conversation. it's annoying how so many people need to be amused 24/7, god forbid they should ever just have a conversation with each other. no, they need to be running around getting drunk and seeing movies and hanging out at the mall. conversations are no longer allowed...wow, that sounds kinda angry doesn't it? well...it's not meant to sound that way. i think i'll go before i blabber on some more.

i'm glad people are picking the lost art of conversation. It's so rare that people have interesting conversations anymore that are not forced. I have them with friends here at home but at school my fraternity brothers (Insert Joke Here) just want to get messed up. I like doing that also but you need a night where you just talk and learn more about life. I think that most people don't do it because it just shows how really shallow they truly are.

That's a no brainer -- Option 1.

I've always been into deep conversations.
Movies and stuff are nice, but nothing is compared to a thought provoking convo.
