Back Story - Groups of Friends

Hello! 

Welcome to the First Episode of Adventurous Agoraphobe Back-story!

In these side blogs, I will supply snippets of my life and explain in depth some references I use in other blogs. Hooray!

Today's Episode - Groups of Friends, and Term Definition of the Day

Term Definition of the Day - Snarky: Sarcastic, slightly mean, irritable, and defensive. Mostly sarcastic, and slightly defensive in my terminology.  

Groups of Friends - Nerd Group: This is a group of people I have known since I was about 13ish. There are about five or six people in the group and their spouses, as well as "fringe friends" who sort of come and go from my universe and this group. 

I met most of them at the Renaissance Festival when I was just a wee lass, and started hanging out with, dating, and sometimes gaming with a lot of them. I met my BFF through this group, too. He and I were inseparable for the longest time, he was the Silent Bob to my Jay. 

These kids play a lot of Dungeons and Dragons, World of Warcraft, and a few other games on a regular basis, are all happily married for the most part, and are all wildly successful, devilishly brilliant, and often intimidating. To me. Because I am not wildly successful, hardly ever been known to be brilliant, and I couldn't intimidate my way out of a paper bag (which is hard to do, by the way. Paper Bags are a lot like Honey Badgers...)

I only call them the Nerd Group because of the games they play. I play them too, just not at the same level they do. The understand a lot more of the inner workings of games, how to better achieve success, and can keep up with all the stats. I like to play as a kitty, or play to get a kitty, or nap through D&D sessions with a kitty. I do not mean Nerd in a derogatory way AT ALL, but rather, an affectionate and in awe sort of a way.

CICS/High School Group:  This should be pretty self explanatory. I went to High School with the people in this group. They are also devilishly brilliant, most are on their way to being highly successful, and most are happily married. I met more of my closest friends in High School, and I am lucky to still be friends with the majority of them today. Yay Facebook! 

Most of the people in this group are adult goth, goth industrial, industrial, dark humored folks. Sarcastic, smart, and a few will fight their point to the death.

This is not CICS.

I am sure there are other friends I should put into groups. Or other smart/witty things to say. Or videos to post. However, my brain has decided to shut down, and now all I can accomplish is looking at cat videos on youtube. So, with that, I bid you adieu! Until next time!

The above video is HILARIOUS! I love Stevecash83 on youtube, and this is the video that started my love. Enjoy!
