Eminem is my best friend and will be forever even though my mom thinks he's a bad influence. But he's been there to catch me when I fall since…

belief. However, there are numbers of people who do not follow this social norm, we can simply see them after a certain event for example: after every University of Arizona football home game, there are thousands of water bottles, taco boxes left on the ground at the football stadium.
