I have great faith in fools self-confidence my friends call

Summary

This quote suggests that the speaker has a strong belief in the self-assuredness of foolish individuals. Referring to it as "great faith," it implies that the speaker sees value in the unwavering confidence demonstrated by such individuals, even though their actions may appear foolish to others. The reference to friends calling it implies that this perception might not be universally accepted, indicating a certain level of subjectivity in recognizing the positive aspects of self-confidence, even in the face of potential foolishness.

While Owen and Miles talk sports, I people watch. And this is what I see: teenagers trying to act like adults. Or how they think adults act. But mostly they look ridiculous, and I wonder what they don't want to do something that's more fun than drinking, smoking, flirting, and making out. Why are those activities considered to be fun?
