"I gotta ask; why are you friends with this tool? He's obviously an idiot, not to mention an asshole with an over-inflated sense of self-importance." There are few people in my neighborhood that actually care about what's going on in the world, so I often make friends just to have discussions with them. I never quite cared what their ideologies were(I have a Zionist friend for example.) Besides, we often talk about business opportunities in the area and whatnot.
