I used to roll my eyes at the classic parental "if your friends jumped off a bridge would you jump too?" and how obviously stupid the idea was.

Used to.

That only works on kids who've yet to experience their first bridge jump, frankly. As soon as I found out how to do it properly, that adage was as hollow & out-of-touch as "finish your plate", "boys'll be boys", "do as I say", et al.

I went cliff jumping in my youth as well lol. But honestly being a smart ass I still always defsulted to "Well theyre probably jumping for good reason, so yes?"
