Friend#1: You’re so lucky, you went to a great college, have money and you’re so smart and will probably accomplish more by the time you’re 30 then I will in my entire life.
Friend#2: Are you serious? I’ve always envied you. People expect so much out of me. I’ve never been able to have a life because of studying and other schoolwork. If I get less then an A, people freak out like I got an F. I may accomplish that much, but with all the pressure on me I’ll probably be insane by the time I’m 35. In so many ways, I wish I could just be a regular guy with normal expectations and a normal life.
Friend#1: Wow, I honestly never looked at it that way. I guess it's true that the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

A stereotypical greener will have dreads, dress like a homeless person, smell like a wet dog who just smoked a pack of clove cigarettes, and live off of their mommies and daddies. In reality most greeners are very nice, clean, upstanding members of the community, their reputations are just sullied by the dirty hippies who are majoring in pottery.
