I'd also like to remind people that pointless posts do not have to be restricted to the Twitter thread. Why not make a pointless topic instead?

No.
Literally nobody has ever been.
It's just a lot of coincidentally similar hallucinations.

I went on vacation there when I was like 5, and from what I can remember it was pretty nice

I guess one potential dealbreaker is that it can get pretty humid there so if that's not your thing then don't go

No.

Sasquatches do not belong in tropical climates. If I went there as I am, my notorious 'Squatch odor would become lethal, and shaving isn't an option because, well, a bare sasquatch is too hideous a sight for most eyes to withstand/

I've been to Maui and Oahu.
in Maui I threw up in a car on the way up Haleakala but rode down the volcano on bicycles so it was all good
went snorkling in Oahu I think; not much that was really memorable. I think Maui was better.

Throwing up in a car is better than snorkeling. Heh.

I traveled to Maui just two months ago and it was one of the greatest experiences that I have ever had. Snorkeling was amazing and I also went zip lining. Traveling is one of my favorite passions and Hawaii was fantastic.
can't forget this guy
Waaa.

I live in Hawaii.

Weather is the same always all year long. It's very expensive to live here, shipping is hell.

I haven't lived in the mainland before, so I have no idea how it compares.

Living costs aside, is it nice to live in Hawaii, or is it just like whatever?

No, you got it the other way around. This is the internet, so we should judge people and point out that the weird shit we're into is much more logical. Like my annie mays about cute girls dying.

It gets relatively hotter in the summer, and relatively colder in the winter, but not to the extremes that you need heaters or A/C units to survive like the mainland. If you're talking about weather, it's nice all year long. Traffic is getting worse and worse every year.

I rather live somewhere else, to be honest. I'm on a rock in the middle of the pacific. I have video games and anime, and that's pretty much all I do.

Living costs is such an issue, you really can't ignore it. We get the same pay as living in the lower 48 states, but our rent and food costs so much more.

Rent is definitely murder, renting a crappy place for $1600 a month is considered a deal, even considering that the average monthly wage for a retail job is approximately $1400. This is working 40 hour weeks. Rent in some places can go up to 3k - 8k easy.

There are multi million dollar sea side homes here that rent for more than $40k a month, and there are wealthy people who pay this all year and don't even live there all year.

In my home, my mom works, my dad works, I work. We all need to work and split the bills. I don't know what they pay for mortgage or utilities. I'm currently paying a car loan, and I dump all my paychecks into it just to make the payments. Saving money is really difficult. I can't move out, it's not even an option.

We're living relatively comfortably, but barely.

So yeah, another day in paradise.
