If I didn't have to work full-time, I'd probably never leave the house except to forage for food & alcohol. Being outside sucks, it's full of bugs and annoying people. At home, I have TV, my PC, video games, and my guitar; what more does a person need?
You're missing one important thing there.
And fuck bugs.
Meh, sometimes it's just easier to settle. As long as I've got a hand and internet, it's good enough.
And Tyler, yeah, actually travelling could be pretty cool. A friend of mine as a teen had an ambition to spend a year in Australia, just hiking wherever he felt like, living day to day, and working odd jobs on occasion. It was an interesting idea, but eminently unpractical, mostly for financial reasons.
