Thank you Integrity and honesty with your peers Allah shmoop

00:07

Well the first friend you made after moving and coming

00:09

to a new school was johnny sleazeball Maybe the name

00:12

should have tipped you off Well no one's ever accused

00:15

you of being particularly perceptive Alright just keeping it real

00:19

here people At first johnny seemed like a decent guy

00:22

friendly personality Well liked by his teachers A smile that

00:26

could charm the pants off a department store Mannequin did

00:29

a few times So you started hanging out with them

00:32

shelling at his place telling him your secrets Oops Hope

00:36

to see you at your induction ceremony into the bonehead

00:39

hall of fame Well that thing you told johnny yeah

00:41

that you'd never ever ever told anyone else Yeah well

00:44

johnny didn't treasure that information as much as you did

00:47

He took that juicy bit of gossip man told half

00:49

the varsity basketball team and they are now using it

00:53

to torture you without mercy But johnny came crawling back

00:56

to you Apologize profusely Said it was an error in

00:59

judgment and would never happen again while pram rolls around

01:04

and neither of you have a date So you decide

01:06

To go together Well you get all dolled up on

01:08

a big night You've never been to a school dance

01:11

before And even though you and johnny you're just friends

01:13

you're jazzed about this thing Well it's not every day

01:16

you get to put your hair in a fancy bun

01:19

So you finished getting ready and you wait and you

01:21

wait and you wait some more and through your front

01:23

door you see johnny walking by arm in arm with

01:26

melissa corn wyler it's Not that you're secretly crushing on

01:30

johnny or anything it's Not even that you wouldn't normally

01:32

be happy for him that he found someone but he

01:35

said he was going with you relative You made plans

01:38

and there you are waiting for him to pick you

01:40

up and he didn't even grace you with courtesy of

01:42

a phone call to let you know about change plans

01:45

makes him scum well lower than scum Whatever scum scrapes

01:49

off its pots and pans underneath Um that's johnny Well

01:52

you're too devastated to go to the day and so

01:54

you don't run into him again until monday at school

01:57

Try giving him the silent treatment but it didn't stick

02:00

That smile though once again he grovels like he spent

02:03

years mastering the art He has a million excuses and

02:06

explanations and eventually he wears you down Convinces you to

02:10

give him one more chance thatyou dio some reason you

02:13

decided to loan him one hundred bucks for this electric

02:15

guitar He's been eyeing and he's just a condo short

02:18

and lost his job shop mart But he's got three

02:21

hundred coming from his grandma and he'll be able to

02:24

pay you back in no time Emphasis in no times

02:28

for the next three weeks You don't see johnny outside

02:30

of school because johnny has only seen his electric guitar

02:33

Well he finally does hang out with you again He

02:35

acts like he thought the hundred bucks was a gift

02:38

And suddenly he has no clue There was ever any

02:40

intention and pay you back Of course He's full of

02:42

it And you know that now finally but it's a

02:45

lot of time energy and heartache wasted Johnny tries the

02:48

gravel in trick again But finally you're over it Good

02:50

for you will you Three times a shame on you

02:53

fool you four times or something like that you know

02:56

And believe it or not john he's actually crushed as

02:59

much as he used and lied to you He really

03:01

did enjoy your company considered you a true friend even

03:05

but johnny's lack of integrity and his inability to be

03:08

honest for more than two point two seconds has led

03:11

to your friendships inevitable demise Maybe he'll take your dismissal

03:15

of him and learn from it for next time But

03:18

meantime your friendships over maybe he'll learn In ten years

03:22

we'll just have a really large collection of electric it

03:24

ties from other fools He ripped off and he'll probably

03:27

have no one to play them for johnny you and 00:03:29.968 --> [endTime] johnny
