You are George Costanza and I claim my five glamour magazines....Originally posted by xoggoth View PostI was invited by my nice religious lady friend to accompany her to Ibeza this week. Being today's F* stupid, logical "fact"-driven xoggoth, I checked it all out, did a Google street view of the hotel area that showed local beaches packed with loungers, checked all the travel times and costs to get to the historic places that I'd really be interested in and turned the offer down.
F* idiot!!! Only F* idiots are rational and guided by "facts". What happened to the xoggoth who would chuck a sleeping bag, a change of underpants and a plastic sheet into a grubby rucksack and set off to wherever chance would take me?
Looking forward to being senile when I might make more sensible, AKA totally random, decisions.

It can be crippling to over analyse stuff. Still - lesson learned for next time.
