Boredom makes one do strange things. Things like purusing your own Facebook page, and then realizing there's a disparity in your pictures. If you were to scan over my profile, it would appear as if I go out with friends to drink all the time. In pictures in which I'm tagged, dating back to October 2nd, 2011, in 78% of them I am drinking either on or off camera. The numbers are even more skewed if you exclude two pictures that don't even have me in them: one of Daniel Sedin, and one of Ryan Atwood.

This doesn't bother me per se, but I sat there thinking that it really wasn't representative of me at this time. I mean, I can count on both hands the number of times I've been drunk in the calendar year. That's 7% of the time, but 78% of my pictures.

Of course, the more I thought about it, the more I realized that it is in fact an accurate representation. When I'm with friends, we typically don't bring cameras along to document our every movement. The cameras only appear when the drinks are out too. they're friends or something.
So as disprportionate as my pictures are in terms of blood-alcohol level-to-total days, it is a fair snapshot of me and my friends. I don't know where I'm going with this, it was just something I noticed and felt the need to write about.
