      Contains overdramatization and slight exaggerations


      Cheapest flights possible to the cheapest “vacation” island possible. Vacation as in

      • drinking until you can’t even pronounce “hi”
      • habitual disturbance of locals and other guests
      • being fleeced by club owners and everyone else because you have “tourist” stamped on your forehead

        I saw this documentary like 20 years ago about a camping spot on Mallorca or around Mallorca. It was just for german tourists, they had little supermarket with only german goods, every employee there spoke or was german. It was absolutely bizzare to me. Most people they interviewed never left the camping place. Everyone they asked why they like it so much there was that it’s just like home. Motherfucker stay at home, what are you doing?

      Bro, maybe the Wally world clientele is different in your neck of the woods but seeing someone with makeup on, or their hair did (leaving aside the question of quality for the time being…) is the exception to the rule.

      I mean, I feel absolutely horrible after hearing some of the stories from the aftermath of that show, but fucking hell they knew how to get that look…
