That is awesome! I wish I had a friend like that in my twenties. Yes that kind of connections wearies you down. It is better to have contribution but people always were lazy and will be lazy.
I was organizing few parties here and there myself. I was organizing movie Thursdays for example. People were complaining but attending. We did watched few good movies like Nebraska. When I stopped organizing them they did not were organizing anything like that themselves. This is just how people are.
The movie "Nebraska" played with this notion quite a bit, although it might have been inverted in the case of the main character. The most straightforward take was the behavior of Dave's cousins (who were portrayed as being dumb as hell). Despite being told numerous times in very plausible fashion that the prize wasn't real, they didn't believe that until they had committed crimes motivated by its presumed reality. Very entertaining!
