First time I bought a new car I was pretty excited. It was nothing special, a Vauxhall Astra. But it was mine, it was brand new, and I worked hard to earn the money to pay for it. I go round to my friends house, all charged up with excitement of new car day. I say "You wanna come out an see it?" and he looks at me like Im an asshole and says "Not really. I've seen a car before.". And he was serious too.

There was a bunch of other shit like this, and to this day he wonders why I stopped being his friend.

Asperger alert if i ever heard it.

Have a friend who would say things like this too. Like if we asked them if they wanted to play cards on vacation, theyd say: Why? It's random outcome so why would you want to play it?

Theyre great at planning and making spreadsheets though. Like you wouldn't believe.

Nope. He was just a dick. He would later go on to brag about how he had two girls coming over later, and that he was going to spike their drinks with E in the hopes of getting a threesome. He also started to become that guy who threatens to beat up anyone and everyone who disagrees with him.

Eh, I feel that card comment. I'm on vacation, I want to do something fun! I just had to deal with a family reunion where they wanted to play mexican train. Like, come on, how the fuck is dominoes fun? Even monopoly has more strategy. Cards, depending on the game, could have a little more depth and skill, like ers, but if you were suggesting war I kinda am with your friend here.
