#20 Staying up all night and bragging about it later.

Pulling all-nighters in college is common, but that’s not cool in itself, what makes it cool is bragging excessively about it the next day. Like, “Hey man, I’ve been up for 34 hours, and it’s great!” or “Dude, I’m like totally out of it right now, but it feels awesome, oh by the way, I’ve been up for like 40 hours man… it rocks.” While they’re saying this, it has to sound like a drunk kind of tired voice, just kind of like letting it spill out of the mouth.

Pulling all-nighters is not like it is in high school. In college it’s a lot more fun because college people usually have group all-nighters. So what does exactly go on during the night? Answer: drinking, partying, doing stupid things, taking dumb pictures, texting, playing video games, and NOT doing anything productive.

The bragging aspect of this allows college people to sort of recuperate and to just sound like they’re deviant and don’t follow the rules. Like, “Look at me, I’m cool dude, this rocks.” Or something like that, but mostly it’s just the stupidness of it and lack of reason that does it though. It’s all good.
