Well,

and to go the other way, to paint a dissonant picture in the other direction, I just said I find the mountains to be some of the most serene, beautiful places on the planet.

And I have solo camped in the in the Rockies, in the northern Rockies and in.

open grizzly country and i remember what i'll just use one particular night as an example it is one of the most serene most beautiful valleys i've ever been to uh northern montana somewhere i can't remember the exact location north of paradise valley like i was on my way up to glacier And I drive into this valley and over a course of, I think, eight miles, there are only six campsites.

So there's nothing around.

There is nobody for miles.

And I drove the length of the road to see if anybody's around because I'm by myself.

So

Go ahead.

Interestingly to that point, we went to Six Flags a few weeks back and, uh, we were just fucking off riding roller coasters for the day, and, uh, the amount of ch- like, it was all of, like, the senior trips, like the, you know, end of year trips, end of May, whatever.

Um, the amount of s- of teenagers that were there to the amount of teenery- teenagers I saw on their phone, it was, like, 1,000 to one.

Like, I think I saw a handful of kids on their phone the entire day, and then ironically at some point, like, we had finished a ride and, and we were waiting to come back into the, the station, and we were sitting next to, uh, two other folks our age, and all of the kids were just, like, snapping the buckles and, like, being annoying teenagers, and we all kinda rolled our eyes, and I was like, "Right, we forget when they're not pacified by their phones-

It's a personal choice.

Yes.

I am a big fan of forcing boredom and forcing quiet.

Not even necessarily boredom.
