So here's a true story I hope ya'll will get a giggle from.
AC, BimR, my boyfriend and I were all standing outside in the parking lot of my apartment complex. I saw a raccoon climb out of the dumpster and walk across the lot, so I throw my cigarette to the side and book it towards that raccoon, because chasing the local wildlife is fun and keeps us all on our toes
Meanwhile, to the rest of the group, I've sprinted out of sight for no apparent reason. One of them says "Oh shit, is it a full moon?!"
"I don't know! It's too cloudy!" They take refuge next to a hedge that surrounds the pool area of my apartment complex.
I've treed the raccoon, and lost interest in it. So I wander back to the parking lot, saying "where did everybody go?" I don't see them, so I start walking back to my apartment, passing the pool, where I see them across the patio. I go through the pool gate, not realizing they haven't seen me...
...And got to see all three of them jump out of their skins, with AC holding BimR as a meatsheild in front of him.
