it's friday night once again

and friday night has always been sacred around here, for the following reasons:

(a) at first--and for years and years and glorious years--friday night was all about single-mindedly going out and scoring ass.

(b) then, at some point later--and for a good while afterwards--friday night became all about going out and maybe getting a little shitfaced in the process of scoring ass.

(c) more recently, friday night meant coming home, getting fairly shitfaced while perusing the internet, and then going out and scoring whatever ass could be found on craigslist, manhunt or a4a;

(d) and these days (and understand that for brevity's sake i'm skipping all the little intermediate, incremental steps that took me over the course of many years from (a) to (d)), more and more, friday night's all about coming home and getting thoroughly shitfaced and wrapped up in the internet, and to hell with the ass.

somebody tell me please--how the fuck did it come to this?

[and yeah, that's another rhetorical question]
