"everyone else does it'

I'm sure we all had a time when we said "everyone else does it!". The time I used that saying was when I was in my younger years of age. I world say around 6 year old was when I started saying it. Well there was many times when I would say that but the one time that I said that was when I was 8 years old coming home from my football game in Templeton and the team all went out to eat afterwards. When I was a few years younger my cousin showed me how to ride the slides but using the food trays that way you can go down a lot faster. When the team was done eating I told the whole team to try it and they did after about an hour of doing the trays finally started to break. They workers came out got mad and told the coach and then my coach came up to me. He asked me why I told the tam to try it and I told him because "everyone else does it", and he didn't take that as an answer. The next practice we had to run and we were all asking why we had to run so much. My coach's response was that "everyone else does it".
