I don’t really ‘get’ driving just to drive thing

samuri Everyone tells me ‘Go out for a drive’ and my thought is ‘To where?’ Maybe it’s a factor of the green/eco-friendly/save-the-damn-earth/communist/socialist agenda of which I partake. Maybe it’s because I’m new at this. But I don’t get the whole concept of going nowhere. Now, I do go for bike rides and hikes, and people might argue that those are trips to nowhere, except those are trips to get out, enjoy nature, and get exercise. So they have a point, a purpose, and a meaning. Good for me and the world, you see. Driving just to drive seems silly, wasteful and weird. So with that in mind, I drove down to UIC campus to check out an SCA fighter practice.
