Well, I was in class the other day and my professor started talking about aggression in girls and how it's getting more common for them to physically fight each other.

He then mentions some videos on YouTube in which a whole bunch of girls beat up on one victim at the same time.

He says, "What was that?" and I say, "Could that have been a gang initiation?" Well, when he asked, "What was that?", he was actually referring to the police sirens that everyone else but me heard outside. So it looked like I said that the police sirens had to do with a "gang initiation".

No wonder these folks think I'm crazy. Embarassed

You wouldn't believe how often it takes me a long time to notice the "newest thing/object/idea" the speaker is referring to, so I'm often responding to something they were referring to 1 or 2 ideas/things/objects ago in the past. That could also be a part of why people think I'm crazy (Though, I'll admit I'm a bit tangential. Razz). Shocked
