    Many of the institutions and spaces where men used to organically make friends have eroded, he said, like houses of worship, civic groups and even the simple workplace.

    So that’s why our “friends” are three guys in baseball caps sitting around a card table with thousands of dollars of audio equipment talking about the last time they pooped themselves.

      Sounds like a good group.

      The older I get the more often conversation with friends veers into discussing pooping yourselves. It’s very weird.

      My only story there was I was on a work trip and we went to a Thai place. We ordered everything very very hot, the food was amazing, but the next day my stomach was a wreck!

      That was the day I finally broke out the extra underwear I pack on trips and I tossed the old ones in the trash in shame.

      Thank god I booked an extra day to sightsee.
