Travelling is stupid - Prove me wrong

[Buster O'Keefe]

I traveled to the USA once. It was kinda meh.

Your face is stupid

So, tranny hookers or brutal underground fighting tourney?

both

 

[Mike R]

I don't travel to third world countries such as Britain, France, or Italy.

I'd be upset with the unrelenting autism of that statement, but that sentiment gave us Lovecraft. So.

I used to want to travel the world, then I got high-speed internet and realized I could just look at pics of places online and save money

Traveling is fun when there's a goal. Like to visit friends, take your kid to a themepark they want to see, bomb some socialist insurgents, get some tail, or spend a week at the beach doing as little as possible. But people who go to "Soak up the local culture" need to be burned in pits

 

[Overcast]

I enjoy going to places that have a beach nearby.

Fuck the actual “traveling” part though.

 

[PT 940]

If I could step through a portal to travel someplace then step back through when I was done I think it would be kind of cool but transportation and being way too close to other people is the worst. Even in a "park and walk" situation you still have to ration your energy for the walk back, which sucks.

You're @Ron /pol/.
It's safe to assume you're wrong from the jump.

He loves it when the bull travels his Hershey Highway.

Everywhere I've ever been is kinda meh. Dirt, water, buildings, humans, sky. I get it. Whoopdiedoo

At my last job this chick was prattling on about how she'd been to Honduras and oh travel teaches you so much blih blah blah

She seemed offended when I told her I've seen 47 states and fourteen other countries, and my conclusion is it's all kind of the same everywhere. It's hot or cold or pleasant, wet or dry, lots of crime or no, the laws vary somewhat, and the people come in several shades of brown.

Most of the enjoyment comes from counting up the political boundaries I've crossed for bragging rights. I should go to Europe and double my tally with a train ride while I sleep.

If ever you get to go back to the USA, go somewhere with mountains. The Rockies, the Smokies, or even Denali, take your pick.

It's not necessary to travel any more. For people living in First World countries, they can simply acquire all the books, travelogues, and firsthand accounts of life, culture, and historical context abroad that it's not necessary to physically be there in order to fully appreciate it. And that's not to mention all the endless hours of firsthand video footage that can be dredged up with a few clicks.

For the same investment of time and money as the plane ticket and flight alone, one can acquire a greater understanding of a foreign place through consulting the vast literature that is already extant.

 

[Kaede Did Nothing Wrong]

seems extremely self-conscious to let someone else's corny vacations decide what you think about seeing the outside world firsthand

Hello

I have come to your country to see the big rock. I have seen the big rock in many photograph, but I must witness the rock without photograph. I must take photograph of me next to the big rock to prove to others i saw big rock without photograph

 

[Black Waltz]

travelling is for homosexual deviants and I wouldn't recommend it. or leaving your house for that matter.

 

[Orkeosaurus]

There really is some truth to the idea that women travel for dick. Guys tend to pair off together and see the maximum amount of shit they can in one day. Women will laze about seeing fuck all if left to themselves until night and see if they can fuck the guy with the accent that makes them moist.

 

[Wingus Dongshire]

I travel for work a lot. It fucking sucks, but it's nice to get paid to not be in the office for a while.

 

[murgatroid]

Living in a place with the one of the largest concentrations of various ethnicities/cultures takes some of the incentive out of traveling for me.

Ime I find a lot of the people I've observed who love to travel are boring human beings and traveling is just another type of consumption and consumerism for them.

While I have traveled some and appreciate those times greatly, I generally view travel as a huge luxury and expense. Being able to be flung around the world in a flying tin can is an amazing human achievement of the last century and it's greatness is not lost on me.

I am certain I'm more racist than.I was when I was a kid who'd never left Texas.

I am, however, far less homophobic.

In conclusion, foreigners are fags
