Apparently I’m living in 2011 and listening to songs like Party Rock Anthem, Rolling in the Deep, and Firework. Why would I say this, you ask? Well, because I just recently started watching the show Entourage, which aired it’s final season 3 years ago. However, after binge watching the entire series this summer, I realized one of the things that make the show so great is how relatable all the characters are to people you know. So here it is, your friends in Entourage characters:

Vinny Chase: This guy is the pretty boy. When you guys go out, he’s the one pulling in the hottest girl at the bar and making it look easy. He’s always been naturally good at whatever he does, and he's never had to work for anything. He knows he’s good looking and cool, but he never forgets his boys and always looks out for them. If you ever need anything, you know he’s got your back no matter what it is. Someday he’s going to make it big, and when he does, he’s brining all his boys with him.

E: This is the guy who is always the voice of reason. When you and your boys decide it’s a good idea to go out on a Monday in celebration of the 27-year anniversary of Michael Jackson’s Bad album, he’s the one telling you it’s a bad idea; even though he knows he’ll end up being peer pressured into going. This guy is fairly smart and probably good at deciding what bars will be good on a specific night to meet girls. He’s probably had a girlfriend more time than he hasn’t, but that’s okay, because he’s still a good time when he goes out and still puts his boys first.

Turtle: Everyone wonders why you’re friends with him...and truthfully, sometimes you even wonder yourself. But for some reason you just love having him around. It doesn’t matter what you guys decide to do, he’s always down...mainly because he has nothing better to do. He’s always pulled in some decent girls, but mainly because your “Vinny” already had a girl for the night. Later into college, he'll get his stuff together more, and even start dating a smoking hot, older girl that he probably worked on a group project with. Eventually, even though he's still boys with Vinny, he'll find success in his own right. Even after you graduate, you still won’t know why or how you became friends with him, but you can’t imagine not having him around. 

Johnny Drama: Every group has a Johnny Drama. Drama is the oldest guy in your friend group; he could be an alumni or maybe just somebody taking the victory lap, but either way he’s been around the block a time or two. He’s always sharing stories about things he did in his younger years back in high school, or his early years of college before you were on campus (5 years ago). Drama stays trying to get back to those glory days he once had, but unfortunately he’s only met with moderate success. Luckily he has Vinny pulling him along and taking care of him, and it’s because of him that he has any success at all. Eventually, he’ll find something that helps him get his groove back and before long he’ll be back (kind of) on top. 

Ari Gold: This is probably your hardest working and most successful friend. He isn’t with you quite as much as all your other boys, but he’s still a good friend. This guy is always scheming and you generally are always wondering where he is because nobody knows. He’s into a million different things and his phone probably dies at least once a day. He’s more than likely going to Law School or becoming a future CEO after graduation. He’s been wifed up with a hard 9 all through college. Even though she’s always been toward the bottom of his priority list, he’s definitely still into going out without her. Also, he probably picks on the younger kids ruthlessly and it’s hilarious when he does. But don’t get it twisted, deep down he’s always looking out for his boys. 

Lloyd: More than likely, he is somebody’s younger brother…or a pledge. Either way, you take great enjoyment out of harassing him, but it’s only because deep down, you see a lot of potential in him...plus, if you ever caught anyone else giving him a hard time, you'd break his or her face. Even though you pick on him constantly, all he ever wants is to be one of the guys and to hang out with your group, so you let him tag along and he learns your ways. Eventually as he gets older, you'll pick on him a little bit less and he grows into a valuable asset to your group. 

Billy Walsh: He was once the partying king. It didn’t matter if it was a Friday for happy hour or a Tuesday at 1pm, he probably was having a beer. This guy partied harder than anyone you knew. However, even though he partied hard, he was a genius on top of it and always somehow managed to do well in classes. One year over Christmas break, his parents caught him doing some “harder” drugs and he fell off the map. Going into second semester junior year, he randomly shows back up at school. Now he’s clean as a whistle, but he’s still just as fun and just as much of a genius as he was before. You don’t know how or what, but this guy is going on to big things after graduation. 

For the record, every group has a Drama, and as the cliché goes, if you don’t know who the Drama in your group is, it’s more than likely you.
