Moral of the story? Arch support.

Conversation just overheard on campus:

Girl A: ... we should hang out!
Girl B: Yeah!1
Girl A: Facebook me!
Girl B: Uh... I don't know if I'm your friend.2
Girl A: What's your last name?
Girl B: [unintelligible]
Girl A: I'll look you up!3

1 It also should be noted that Girl B was wearing those flimsy flip-flops you get for free after a pedicure (something I only just encountered a month ago after my first pedicure) as normal shoes. This is the second time I've seen this on campus, signaling something of a trend. All I can think is: it'll wreak havoc on their arches!!

2 Well, this is clearly ridiculous, but it makes sense in the context of the conversation. These two people are friends -- acquaintances, maybe -- but they haven't put each other on the "friend" section of their Facebook pages, so they don't know if they're virtual friends, even though the conversation they're having proves that they are, in fact, literal friends.

3 And so, instead of exchanging email addresses, or phone numbers, they return to their Facebook pages, where perhaps they will "hang out" by deciding to join the "People who like Val's Pizza but not Blondie's" group together. Who knows. I'm officially out of the loop.
