obviously you'll be coming to oxfordshire, in which case go to wantage, go to wallingford, go to berinsfield. don't go to bicester or anywhere in the cotswolds
Oxford is a remarkably ugly city in places but remarkably beautiful elsewhere

Go there and take magic mushrooms on a summer's day and you will start talking in heroic couplets

Outside Europe I've been to Bangkok and Cairo. But didn't spend much time in either and didn't like either.

walking round too embaressed to walk into a shop or licensed premises cos its a foreign country and you dont want to speak english to them even tho they all speak english. wondering what youre doing there, getting right stressed and fraught.

Visiting foreign cities (at least if you're like me) means doing touristy shit because you don't know anyone so you don't get to do any of the more fun stuff that comes with being plugged in.

Americans are gregarious though ofc so you could probably meet a lot of locals

honestly youre better off staying at home. come to london and we'll give you a load of drugs and precipitate a psychotic break but dont bother with any place where they dont speak english its honestly not worth the bother now i think about it

- shitting myself in Egypt, multiple times. here's a 'hilarious' account of this time in my life from another forum:
''Might not have even been the last time but I shat myself in Egypt about four-five years ago. I dunno how I got a dodgy stomach (could have been any number of reasons) - all I know is that I was drinking a can of Sprite in my hotel room, looking forward to a boat trip down the nile which was commencing the next day, when suddenly I did a fart that was more liquid than the contents of the can I was sipping from. I rushed to the toilet, squitted a bit and laughed it off - 'So that was my experience of diahorrea while travelling' I thought, smugly.
I spent the rest of the night shitting and sweating and vomiting. At one point I was sick in the sink at the SAME TIME as letting loose a pound of chocolate Angel Delight from my arse-end. I went to bed, teary eyed and turdy arsed, about five hours later. I shat myself in my sleep, waking up to find myself tucked into what was effectively a gigantic sheet of used Andrex.
Then on the boat down the nile, I lay on my back and moaned a lot for about two days, occasionally leaving the boat to go and do a wet shit in the desert sands while stray dogs circled around me hoping that some Pedigree chum would fall out of my bumhole.
One night (and I'm not lying) I had a dream where I was in a 'who can shit the fastest?' contest. The guy judging the contest counted down from 3. On '1' I woke up. If I could have shrunk the boat we were on to the size of a chocolate mini roll than we could have gone on a little cruise down my trouser legs.''

As an authentic New Yorker, let me assure you, New York is dead. It will probably take at least a decade to bring it back. It's hard to understand how much the city is changed if you haven't lived there for decades, but nearly everything creative about NYC has been drained out and converted into vessels for private greed.

Isn't what underlies this thread basically rental and housing costs? You can't bum around on the dole anymore, squat, do weird shit on a budget with your mates.

it's more than that. i mean, that doesn't quite explain why the music died and the nightclubs closed i don't think. though you could say it's related.
