-   -   BUT MOM...why would any of my friends jump off a bridge? (https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=207593)

I haven't had that one thrown at me in the longest while now. Usually when it was asked though, I would say, "Now, why would they do that?" or "I guess I would do it too then..." just being smart and all. Though, it's usually understood that my point is I just want to do what's happening then and not get put in the corner not having anything to do with what my friends have or do.

I used to get bugged with that question from my mom though, not really my dad. After awhile, it just stopped.

My momma always asked me that...but stopped, because I just got too smart for her. I would say, "But none of my friends aren't stupid enough to jump off a bridge, and if they did, that's their choice."

My mom has said this many times. My following responses...
"No, I'd be on the top of the bridge laughing at them"
"No, I'd be there to catch them."
"Yeah! It's called bungie jumping!"

Why wouldn't you want to jump off a bridge?! its what ALLLLL the cool kids are doing B|

My parents never say that kind of thing...at least i don't think so. I really should start paying attention. o3o
I never really ask to do anything silly anyways o3o

Eh, they might have once or twice, but I can't remember it. But yeah... My friends probably would jump off a bridge... They are adrenaline junkies from hell.

My Dad says it anytime I complain about my friends parents letting them do something he wouldn't let me do. This would be the typical conversation:
Dad: If your friends parents gave them permission to jump off a bridge, would you expect me to?
Me: Yeah. I wouldn't do it, but yeah!

Lol. Only had my teachers throw that one at me :P I just reply: "What if they're NOT my friends?"

If I feel brave, i'll say "I control them. So, no. I make them jump off"

Though, i'll almost never say the second one. I might get 1/2 of lunch off :P

I didn't have a lot of friends when I was younger, and I never go out as it is, so I've never had that thrown at me, but I personally love the line "If all your friends were made a bridge, would you jump off them?"
