It wasn’t that we never went in to get a drink. The problem was all your friends were outside. If you went in the house you run the risk of getting a chore or task to do. By the time you get back your friends may have moved on somewhere else. With no way to contact them you’d have to search the streets. And if you couldn’t find them again, you would be alone for a few hours. Drinking from the hose happened, but not as common as these memes suggest. At least for me.

It’s the system you have. It doesn’t matter if you have accurate representation. If you don’t hold your nose and make a decision, it will be made for you.
