I am the "crazy" friend in my group of friends...hands down. We all have our quirks; but I am the one that would be categorized as the crazy one, and I'm cool with it.
I love making people laugh even if it is at my personal expense; and although I get a little carried away sometimes, I love that the people I surround myself with know how to keep the adventure going.
Here are some of the key signs you're the crazy friend, and I hope you feel as honored as I do.
1. You're loud.
In my personal defense, I have lowered the volume quite a bit in my recent years. Even so, I know without a doubt that my volume sometimes warrants a noise violation. I can't help that I can project, okay!
Sometimes you're not even trying to be loud, but your vocal cords just can't keep it all in within a normal decibel level. Strangers probably are laughing at you...not with you, but life is too short to be quiet all the time.
2. You're entertaining.
You will do and say things that others would think too embarrassing. Because it's FUN, and you really don't care what other people think about you. Judgment is going to happen either way, so why not?
Will you dance in the middle of the street or randomly in the veggie department of Kroger? Yes.
Will you act like a ninja and "steal" the toilet paper from the library because you have none? Yes.
Will you sing or use quotes to have a conversation about Amber Rose's beef with Kyga? YASSSSSS
3. Certain people can't handle you.
There are some stiff people in this world, and although I can use my manners and act like a lady when I need to, most of the time I want to be comfortable with the people I am around. That means friends that can laugh at themselves and not be serious all the time.
When you're the "crazy" friend, there are people that aren't going to be down with your vibes, and that is FINE. Life is also to short to deal with lame people.
4. #Nofilter
This sign is both a wonderful blessing and a terrible curse. You say what you think, which is often what others are too shy to say aloud.
Other times your foot isn't quite big enough to shove in your mouth.
You can be either the funniest person in the room, or the most ridiculous, and you try your damnedest to make sure it remains the former.
5. You would totally do *insert crazy thing here.*
When you're the crazy friend, one thing that keeps you going is the will to do pretty much whatever.
Do you wanna go skydiving? Yeah, please hmu if you have plans to do so, I want to join.
Do you wanna go dance in the rain with no shoes and choreograph a dance sequence to "Umbrella"? Done that.
Would you volunteer to play beer pong in front of your class?...Nailed that one.
Would you tell one of the hottest guys in school that he had "nice kicks"? Yeah did that one...regretted it later, but hey¯\_(ツ)_/¯ they were pretty nice Nikes.
Would you dress up as Tyga while your roommate dressed up as Kylie Jenner and then have a photo shoot on a random Saturday night? Ahh.....Yep, it was a fun night.
6. You're automatically upset if you aren't speaking.
"You okay?"
"Yeah, why?"
"You haven't ....1. Cracked a joke, 2. Made a comment, 3. Laughed at something, 4. Tripped or fallen, or 5. Moved in a non-normal way in over four minutes. You sure everything is fine?"
7. You just wanna dance.
I'm sorry, but the world is a dance floor/music hall, and anyone that tells you differently is tone deaf with two left feet.
8. "You are/were SO drunk!".......Actually...Nope.
Sometimes people are really surprised that you did/are doing what you're doing sober, but you are. You're just drunk on life man! Who wants to be boring? NOT ME.
9. Your stories could be comedy sketches.
Sometimes the shenanigans that your friends and you get into could make for some pretty funny TV, and you wonder why you aren't as big as the Kardashians yet.
Then you realize...you aren't rich and that's probably why. You also could not look like tanned, perfectly contoured barbie princess with a Nicki Minaj butt 24/7.
10. You've been featured on many a SnapChat Story.
Sometimes you do stupid funny stuff. Sometimes the people around you have cameras. It's a love-hate relationship.
