I bailed him out of jail recently so don't talk to me about true friendship. I have known him since we were 10, we are practically brothers.

Don't be surprised if your "friends" leave you in your pile of shit one day when you need them.
And I honestly can't think of a situation where I would be in a pile of my own shit.. or anyone else's for that matter.
You don't need to be friends to bail someone out of jail.... But let's assume you did it out of friendship.
If you are a true friend, try to keep him out of jail and try to help him fix whatever got him in there.
If you cannot think of a situation where you are in a pile of shit, then I guess you have not seen all tricks life has in store for you. Killing somebody, being framed for drugs in your suitcase, being marked a terrorist, a.s.o, are some of the things that could happen to you if your mark is up on the line of extreme events.
For Life has the ultimate practical jokes in store for you.
"An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
Isn't it ironic ... don't you think
Chorus
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought ... it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
'Well isn't this nice...'
And isn't it ironic ... don't you think
Repeat Chorus
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face
It's a traffic jam when you're already late
It's a no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
A little too ironic... and yeah I really do think...
Repeat Chorus
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out
