Nobody Cares about Your Junior Year Abroad

If you went abroad, you're probably thinking, hey guy, nobody cares about your stupid fucking blog either. Well, fuck you.

There are really two possible scenarios in which somebody is talking about their year abroad: they are either talking to someone who didn't go abroad, or are talking to someone who did go abroad. Right?

If the former: The person you're talking to doesn't care, isn't absorbing the information, and most likely now thinks you're a douchetard. Nobody (probably not even your parents) wants to hear about how you can't stand the chinese food in New York City because nobody serves this one dish you used to eat, like, all the time when you were backpacking through the Cantonese countryside.

If the latter: The person you're talking to may be smiling and nodding, with an occasional "oh wow, that sounds amazing!", but he / she is really just thinking about their own time abroad, and is simply waiting for you to shut your mouth so they can launch into their counterpoint about how the clubs in Italy are like totally amazing and make it, like, not even fun to go out in America anymore.

Keep it to yourself, you cosmopolitan asshole.
