Amen, brothers.

Yep… they’re boys alright

Reminds me of an old MADD comic where 2 boys around 7 or so got in a fight and their mothers came out and each defended her own son and they ended up fighting with each other and cancelling their friendship. After slamming their respective doors the boys started playing together again as if nothing had happened.

Out of the mouth of babes.

Funny how mom missed that bit in the contract.

If you can’t beat up your best friend, who can you beat up?

Mom: “Enough of you brats! To the pen with the both of you!”

Boys will be boys.

Like pro wrestling!

This is second on things women do not understand about men. Number one is that men think the women we are in love with are so beautiful it is hard to look away.

Fighting can be fun (up to a point).

Old anecdote about film studio head Sam Goldwyn being confronted after having a noisy altercation with Louis B. Mayer: "What? We’re like friends, we’re like brothers. We love each other. We’d do anything for each other. We’d even cut each other’s throat for each other!

That’s my elementary school friends in a nutshell.

All is well in the land of friendship!
