Through Being Cool

Occasionally, there's a real choice cut in the "best-of" section of craigslist, but this was the first time I had enjoyed a posting that was genuinely thought-provoking instead of merely hilarious.

The author calls into question the way we as Americans view and use friendships, and contrasts the American idea of "friend" with the Australian idea of "mate". I could go on explaining, but why don't you just read the post?

I didn't know that anyone in Somerville could read or write. Wow.
