My so called "friend" is an idiot... *LONG*

Okay, so roughly about 2:00 A.M. this morning... my idiot friend decides that he's going to do something stupid. A little bit after two, part of my neighborhood is woken up by a big boom. I was still awake in front of my computer in my room, so I decided to check it out. After checking along my house with a flashlight and baseball bat (thinking I'd find a hole from a quarter stick), I came up with nothing.

I go back into my house and grab the keys for my sister's car due to the fact she was blocking me in. I drive over by my friend's house, in the subdivision, and notice his garage door is open and the light is on. I also notice that his truck is now parked in the driveway with his car blocking it in. Earlier, I had placed a sticker that said "Fish Eyes" under the windshield wiper blade on his truck parked in the street.

Arriving back home, I notice a car with its headlights on in the street just sitting there. I open the door to be greeted by my mom who is not happy about whatever is going on. She questions me about what happened, why it happened, and so on... I told her that I thought it was my friend and that I'd take care of it. As she starts to walk away, I get a phone call at 2:25 A.M. from a friend of my friend's cell phone.

I answer my phone thinking it's the kid's cell phone. On the other end I hear my friend whispering that he needs me to pick him up. He tells me that he thinks he got busted and doesn't want to get in trouble. He tells me his exact location and where to pick him up. I tell him no can do because I was getting yelled at. I mean come on... what was I supposed to say to my mom at that point? "Hey mom... Jason lit something off in front of our house and he needs to be saved from the neighbors catching him."

I go back to my computer and notice his away message for AOL has changed. It now states, "Don't worry Jeff, I'll never ask for a favor again." I reply to him saying that I would have helped him out other than the fact that my mom was up and bitching at me about the whole ordeal. I tell him though that it was a quality quarter stick (what I thought he lit off) and a girl down the street heard it loud and clear. He replies with the following, "#1..That wasn't a quarter stick, you must have had wax in your ears. #2 Thanks but no thanks, I dont need the help, shouldnt have called."

I'm pretty much furious at this point because my friend is being so arrogant over it. Him and I got into an argument about 3 weeks ago over speakers and it was so dumb. I told him that I dropped my end of the grudge and whatever. I told him if he didn't think he would have needed the help, he would have never thought of calling, right?

So now it rolls into this morning where I get yelled at by my mom again. She tells me that she's not happy about it, she doesn't want her house getting "blown" up since she feels this ordeal my friend got into was inspired by September 11th. Hello? He's not crashing planes into my house. Regardless, she tells me the next time it happens or something of that nature, I'm getting kicked out. I couldn't believe it because I wasn't even doing anything except for sitting on my computer playing a game on pogo.com.

It all sums up with she wants to use the conversation from AOL last night to file a police report against him. I told her that I closed it out even though I still have it. After being really good friends with this kid for 9 years and things starting to go sour like 3 weeks ago, what do you think I should do?
 
Wow, what a mess. I can't even begin to untangle it. All I can suggest is that you go with your gut and your heart. They will let you know what's right to do.
 
did you find out what really happened ? tell your friend to chill and just say youre sorry even if you arent.
 
Is this the plot to Mission Impossible 3, because it's confusing the hell out of me.

So what did your friend actually do?
 
No harm, no foul. If nothing's messed up, there's no reason to file a complaint against him. But you should still tell/threaten him not to do that sort of stuff again because your mom sounds pretty pissed/ready to sue and it is her house.
 
I think you could have told the story a lot better




by telling us what he actually did.
 
ok, so let me understand this. youre hanging around/having an association with someone who has no problem with setting off high explosives in a residential neighborhood at 2 A.M?

No, he has a friend who has a couple of barely exciting firecrackers who is too immature to know how or when or where he should set them off...
 
I'd say, don't turn your friend in, but never contact him again.

He put you in a really bad situation and you should be the one who's pissed at him for it. Let him be pissed off for a while and don't contact him. If he figures out what an ass he was being, he'll probably call you. If he doesn't, then you're probably better off anyway.

I was sitting in my room at 2 A.M. I had no clue he was going to do this.

EDIT: This being the means of lighting a wax bomb off in front of my house.

Ha. WRONG. Quarter-stick isn't a "quarter stick of dynamite".


<--- arrogant ass

😛

What is it then?

😛

Obviously a "Quarter Stick" isn't made with anywhere near the same sort of material that dynamite is made with.

Possibly almost a "equivelent of", but it is NOT dynamite.

He deals with knives, not firecrackers!
 


don't think it's wise to be doing that stuff, especially when the FBI is ready to bust just about anybody these days that might be related to terrorism.

i may be psycho, but i'm sure as hell not stupid
 
I had friend drive by my place and launch bottle rockets at it. He thought it was hilarious, of course he didn't need a ride anywhere he was driving his own car.
 
it was probably a pipe bomb of sorts

they are so easy to make and can be quite loud and destructive, you are lucky nothing was messed up from his stupidity
 
Who the hell cares if your friend set off a firecracker? I mean, yeah, it was 2AM and thyat's rather inconsiderate, but other than that, big fvcking deal.
