STOP ALIENATING ME Options

[dustbunny]

yeh i know there's a specific inside joke forum where you try to come up with ones, but this is a bit different

does anyone find that inside jokes are extremely alienating? i mean you could be walking with your two best friends and all of a sudden they'd just say PEPPERONI and start laughing like maniacs while you stand there feeling stupid and awkward and start doing the awkward turtle. i mean, i guess that's the point of inside jokes? but it's become more of a "HEY [insert random word here] *laughs hysterically* IM SO AMAZING I HAVE FRIENDS AND WE'RE BFFLS AND WE HAVE INSIDE JOKES" than those real jokes you share with your friends about certain events or something...does anyone get what i'm saying? and also, it really bugs me when some "acquaintance" of yours who's not even really close to you makes an "inside joke" with you and just starts saying it all the time and putting it in their profiles or myspaces or whatever, and you're just like..what. the. heck?

yeah long rant

haha don't worry people, i'm not whining about inside jokes because i don't have any friends or jokes with them, i was just complaining about the whole idea of the ones that er, went wrong.
