There are about five members of the stage crew for the production that my school has just finished. Today, in this boring town, on this lazy Sunday afternoon, I tried to pick a fight with each and every one of them. I have nothing against them, it's just that I need to learn how to fight. This would be a valuable skill, no?
But apparently, this "emo" behavior causes a loss of friends. Who ever knew that self-defacing behavior drives people away? I will need to remember not to attempt to pick fights with fellow students if I wish to keep my friends here.
On an unrelated note, I came back to my "home" after the day's work, and began thinking about juxtapositions. Oddly enough, I find that alcohol has always lived well with mankind, and is in a number of sayings in the English language. "Wine and cheese," "steak and beer," and "brandy and a cigar" are among the top spots in my mind. Obviously, the English and their rebel colonists have a strong love of alcohol.

Props to you, sir. That's first time I've seen/heard someone use the word "juxtapositions" correctly in a sentence. :D
You are indeed serious in your claims? Shame. Our age-cohorts have less and less of a command of the English language than I would have expected. I am sure that I play a small role in that by not having done my part in studying the language as I should have.
