If this Tiki thing is nothing more than escapism, what (in particular) are you escaping from? - Bilge

Do you think this is true, and if so, is this true for you? If so, what (or who) are you trying to escape from? Why can’t you handle real life, that you feel you have to immerse yourself in fantasies about hula girls, plastic squid and puddles of flaming liquor in skull-shaped cereal bowls?
