Around the time I started my compsci studies, I noticed that my friends respond to certain questions in a very predictable way. I even ended up experimenting with how I present my question and what words I use, but seldom did I manage to "bust the cache". My takeaway at the time was that friendships consist of predictable actions and conversations, and I wasn't particularly fond of it. Looking back, I don't mind it as much, and enjoy the fact that I can have a predictable experience with a person I know.
