I'd like to meet:
Every single person involved with my friends list that I don't know personally: every last one. You keep this poor boy alive, mates...As far as people are concerned, I try to only get in with those who are pretty chill and easy going. I'm not a fan of bullshit drama, so don't suck me in that way. I'm a caring individual who will go to great lengths to make sure a friend is alright. Therefore, I choose them wisely; there's too many shitheads out there who would take advantage of blatant kindness. So I guess I'm not that social after all... C'est la vie, I suppose.
