I could have used this pearl of wisdom years ago: Never get drunk outside yr own house? -Who am I kidding, I could have used it last week.

As for On The Road, I loved it when I read it. I was 19 years old and about to hop in a VW bus and move to Montana when I read it. Perhaps that's why? Context is king.

I think context certainly is a major contributing factor, definitely.
