The Real World - IOP

You want to know what you can learn from putting 6 best friends from high school in a beach house with a ridiculous amount of alcohol and no cable television for three days?  A lot.

Things I learned from "The Real World - Isle of Palms":

When there's no cable television, you're forced to spend an hour trying to watch the Heat game on the internet.  When you fail, you drink instead.

Large family style dinner tables make for a really fantastic beer pong table.
Din Din
If you ask your mother to make a lasagna for 7 people, she will make it for 70.  Thus, you will hate lasagna after day 2.
seriously?
Just because YOU cannot hear what someone is saying outside the door of the "totally friggin' soundproof" bathroom, does not mean that the people on the floor below the "totally friggin' soundproof" bathroom cannot hear either.

If I didn't know us, I'd hate us.

You cannot say "You guys know how to post videos to Facebook" enough to piss people off.

Halloween decorations that are "cute" at Halloween are just down right terrifying in February.
told you...
Coffee is good.

The best test for a new party dress: see if you can "get low".

Citadel Mall is freaking scary.  Period.

Laura's phone hated itself so much it tried to commit suicide in the pedicure spa.

Laura's phone is indestructible.

All it takes is one person to crack the first beer to start the shenanigans.

You can play card games all night and never have an argument - as soon as Catchphrase is cranked up all Hell breaks loose.

Apparently if you don't like the word, you can push "next" until the buzzer goes off.

Michael Jackson played for the Bulls.  Huh?

Magnum bottles of wine are for sharing.  Seriously.

1 Magnum bottle of wine + Lindsey = drunk crying on the porch (while people come in and out just to get another beer from the cooler)

If you clean up the night before mess before you realize what happened, you never have to remember what happened.

The best cure for a wine hangover: running on the beach in 45 degree weather.

Mimosas can be drank at any point in the day...it's not technically "drinking".

The movie "The Heathers" was a LOT cooler in the 90's...however, apparently every single LT catchphrase came from this movie.

Thank goodness for Netflix and WiFi - you saved us for a few hours.

An afternoon walk to the marina to drool over boats none of us will ever afford is just enough to make everyone start drinking...again.
ahhh...the marina.
There is such a thing as a power nap.

Cold showers suck.

It's a lot more fun to get ready in a bathroom suite with 6 of your best friends...yea, it was only weird for a minute.

Your friends will tell you a dress looks good on...your BEST friends tell you the dress will help you find a husband!

You can go two days without taking but three photos, but as soon as everyone is fancy and dressed up - you take 30.
oh you fancy now!
Oh my gosh...the reason we're here is because we're going to our 10 year class reunion.

I'm really tall...
this is why I never wear heels...
Class reunions should happen more often than they do.

The Cupid Shuffle will bring everyone together.  The Electric Slide will make everyone leave the dance floor and awkwardly stare at the DJ.

It's okay to recite 4H songs and prayers while partially drunk.

After the party there's the after-party.  After that, everyone is really drunk.

Snacking on raw veggies after a night of drinking is lame.

There comes a point in the night when you go from "I'm having fun" to "I don't care" - at this point you should be removed from people who are not having fun and care.

If you find yourself saying "Yall wanna watch Twilight" at 3:00 am, you've officially run out of better things to do.

You know you're getting old when you request a late check out because "there's no way we'll be up before 10am on Sunday"...yet, you're already home by 10:15am.
