Because if there's one thing I love, it's bitching about people. There's always at least one person that we became friends/associate with for some godawful reason, but you now/you've always hated something/everything about them. One that I have in mind is this one girl who I made friends with a few years ago, when I transferred schools, and while I used to enjoy her company, she is now the biggest twat I know. She's a weeaboo [she genuinely dreams of being a mangukuh], an emo faggot who whines about everything [she b'awwwwwwed for forty fucking minutes when she found out she failed a test], and uncomfortably clingy, with me in particular. Any stories of such people you'd like to share? I know I'm not the only one who knows someone like this.
Almost every group of friends I've had has contained one person who everybody disliked, but who was the core stabilizing factor amongst the friends. The Reviled One forms the central pillar of the group, uniting all the other friends in mutual dislike of the One, who they all bitch about and in doing so, are brought closer. All problems between friends can typically be rebounded on to the Reviled, and he helps keep the peace. Without the presence of the one friend we all hate, we are forced to turn on each other. And in doing so, strong friendships start to crumble.
Indeed, what flu said is the truth, everyone hates him, but he's important, the funny part is that we had removed that person from my group of friends do to a little brawl between him and one of our actual friends, kid got a nice black eye during it. Flash forward to this day. after everyone turned on eachother for a few months. The kid who gave the "reviled one" the black eye has become the new "reviled one". Thus balance was restored.
indeed, the idea that groups must have some lesser person to take out frustration, aggression and give abuse to applies to basically every human social environment. The nazis had the jews, jews have the arabs, star wars had JarJar, America has Muslims and liberals, and ED has furries ,bronies and negi. Its an unpleasant role , but a necessary one none the less.
Yeah well no one cares what you think (except that octopus Christian impostor friend of yours). Do you think you are Reviled?
I'm pretty sure he's an asshole who enjoys being an asshole. You just don't understand the Australian mindset, my dear. In Australia it's very endearing to be called a "bastard."
I know an aspiring actor from high school who everyone either hated or felt sorry for. He would go around all day quoting family guy lines and reenacting a whole enntire scene by himself no matter how long. Remember that bit with Peter hurting his knees and he sits on the ground and whinces in pain for like two minutes straight? He does that every single time family guy is mentioned in any conversation even when he doesn't know who they are. But that's just the surface. Nobody knows that he's completely obssesed with keeping his record clean. He got a detention for being late and I saw him in the restroom balled up in the fetal position and crying. Later I found out that he actually went to the teacher and begged on his knees not to send him to detention. He ask the most retarded questions and had this very coarse and highpitched laugh like nails on a blackboard, or a hyena being buttraeped. On senior year he decided to grow out his sideburns and bringing toy wolverine claws(coz aparently he got instaboner from watching that god awful sorry excuse for a movie, xmen origins) then he pounced around trying to impress girls almost got beat up by a nigger at one point. I wouldn't consider him a friend, but he probably thinks I am because for three years he always tried to sit next to me and ALL our conversations was about past conversations or just him telling me about movies he saw. It would have been alright, except he always watched fucking Michael Bay and M.Night Shyamalan which led me to develop an impulsive behaviour of shoving sharp blunt objects on my anus whenever a transformer movie is on.
That friend everyone hates, lordy. They are in all social circles, in mostly female circles it can get really catty though. Things kind of die down after the hated friend is gone, usually cause we are bonding over mutual hatred. I had one female friend that would get insanely jealous if my other friend and I would hang out without her, or if we were hanging out and then invited her after she would be jealous that we didn't invite her to begin with. There were a lot more crazy issues but that was the main one that we just found totally annoying.
While most of the time, it is indeed a necessary role, the person I have in mind and my hatred of her is only one thing that I and two others agree upon and bond while bitching over. She holds a very small role, and I'm quite capable of staying friends with many people without her in the picture. Though, I'll be honest, it's pretty damn relaxing to have someone to complain about every so often.
I think I was the hated one in my group of friends. Though there were certainly bigger dickheads than me in the groups I've been in.
Oh you better watch Trix. He'll spout some Jesus shit about you! Like he's gonna strike you down for calling him jelly.
