But I've just had some weirdo tell me the only travelling I've ever done was a two-week holiday to four islands in 2018. Grimly, they also implied that I'm too unattractive to be sexually assaulted. Jesus Christ, people on the internet...

If the transfer bus is waiting for you, do not go to McDonald's. Go directly to the bloody bus. You're holding us all up, it's rude and your food is making the bus smell.
Thank you for your cooperation,
