Happy Friday everybody, it's time for chaos. I have a question for you all tonight.

What do you consider yourself a good friend? I'll start. No, I'm not a good friend. I'm not like someone that goes out of their way to be hurtful to people.

I'm just a terrible friend. You can't rely on me. I don't put any effort into friendships because it's exhausting. You get older, you have kids, you're married, there's just no time.

Nora, you're a good friend, you jumped right on. You were like, yes.

There's a caveat though. I'm bad at thoroughly keeping the communication going. Maybe it'll be a couple of weeks before we talk or text again.

But I'm super loyal as a friend and I am very reliable. Loyal and reliable, those are two buzzwords that are often thrown out there when one speaks of good friends.

You remember birthdays? Yes, because it has to, but it has to be on my phone.

Not being on Facebook, I got rid of my Facebook a while ago, years and years ago, and it's made it more difficult to keep track of birthdays, so I have to input it into my calendar.

You say you're loyal. Do you find often that your loyalty is tested as a friend? What kind of circles are you running in where your loyalty is constantly tested?

I stand up for my friends. If I feel like somebody has wronged them, I'll stand up for my friend. I'm not going to be the person that's like, oh, I'm just not going to say anything.

I'll say, hey, what you did was not cool. You should go talk to this person.

You're a good friend. You're a classic good friend. What about you, Ross? Are you someone that makes time to hang out with people?

I would never dawn on me to be like, I should call someone so and see if they'd like to hang out. That, to me, sounds like someone good friend would do.

What humans do? What regular humans do?

I'll say true that I've experienced some growth. I think there was a time where I was maybe not so good a friend.

I think that maybe has to do with growing up moving around a ton and it would make friendships. Then I'd move away.

It was just like those people just disappeared. Until I finally, it's like, oh, you got to put in just the modicum of effort.

Also living in a city like Chicago, which I did for a long time, living in a pedestrian city does so much work for you because you just run into people all the time.

It's like, I got so many friends. It's just popping and going. Then you move to LA and it's like, I'm so very alone.

Finally, stepping out and just making an effort.

Most of that, I feel like, doesn't come from disregard for people. If anything comes from nerves and insecurity of like, well, it would be burdensome of me to impose on their time.
