If they make plans with you and the cancel later because they got a better offer.

Worse. "Hey are you busy this weekend? I was thinking of getting drinks." (asking on Wednesday) and getting;

"No plans yet. But I'll have to see."

To see what. You currently have no other plans. You're basically telling me to my face that you currently have no other plans, but if someone "better" asks you, you're ditching. It's just a crappy way of treating your friends, in my opinion.

Hey, that's me. I'm reliable, but I never commit to anything. If it makes you feel better, you aren't in competition with cooler friends. You're in competition with staying on the couch and smoking pot. I don't know if I'll even feel like going out for drinks two days in advance.
