All this national service talk makes me very glad that I am pretty unfit and my primary hobbies involve a lot of sitting down :v:

Our own localities are full of exciting and interesting things to do, including things that are a lot more useful than lying on a beach or taking 'I was here!' photographs, and our lives are not long enough to do all of them. Travel might easily be something people do because they're unimaginative, or do not stretch themselves enough to achieve anything more difficult.

Lmao no they're loving not, where have you been the last ten years?

Love to go into Middlesbrough and stare at the three dead shopping centers and the rows of lovely takeaways and vape shops, so much more interesting than any holiday

The only loving thing that happened in Nottingham this Christmas was a kid lost a finger on the lovely ice-skating rink they put up in the market square every year, clearly this is a tourist hotspot better than any foreign country

E: 69 miles from home is much too far for any kind of vacation.

I think every aspect of this country is loving repulsive, and the people around me are awful, which is why my ideal holiday is to get as far away from them as possible.

Also Ms A. is right, as always.

some real loving worm brains in here imagining that the bit I enjoyed most about my visit to Rome was sitting half-awake in East Midlands Airport eating a loving terrible Frankie and Benny's and drinking a rum and coke that could be used to strip paint

ah yes the ritual sacrifice to Venga Airways, pop gods of travel

my favourite travel memory was being delayed in Detroit due to a mechanical issue, the part needed to fix it being in Atlanta and shipping of the part to Michigan being delayed by a thunderstorm in the Atlanta area, and seeing Brits going up and complaining about the delays on their connecting flight

Jesus, it's impossible to escape from us, isn't it?

I did wonder where all our "blitz spirit" went, but my hangover was kicking in by this point and I just wanted to sleep

Well the people who talk about blitz spirit the most are the people who were never in the blitz, so presumably having to stay in Michigan for X amount of time longer was the worst thing that ever happened to them.

I also haven't left the country since I was old enough to stay here by myself, and have been much happier for it. I don't want exoticism, I don't believe in it. Like it isn't a thing that exists, to me. I do not understand what it is that other people see when they go looking for it.

The sky is still the sky whether I'm here or somewhere else, the air is very similar, the grass is still green, the trees still grow out of the ground. I have some time to experience that and that suits me fine, and I am particularly glad that I don't feel a need for more than that, in much the same way I'm glad I don't smoke or drink.

I think if I ever met you I'd be bored to tears.

And people are nice. The first time I traveled I was shocked to find that being a bitter sarcastic twat wasn't the default human condition

The guy who ran the bar next to the apartment I stayed at in Rome always looked at me funny whenever I interacted with him, but then again Rome is a tourist destination and I only knew enough Italian to order three Peronis and be polite about it. I presume he just had the standard universal hatred of the British tourist.

There was someone in the thread earlier making a joke about which Pokemon types the Labour leadership candidates were and I don't think anyone made the joke yet but Jess Phillips is Extremely Normal type. I hope that paid off for whoever made the joke.

Jim Carey is on Graham Norton and I would rather be subjected to his Robotnik performance clockwork orange style than ever hear the word Brexit again.
