Going out is a Trojan horse.
It makes you weak.
All the 'networking' that 'occurs' is of no value as everyone is inebriated, which means:
A) they won't have meant what they said
&
B) they will forget the things that they didn't mean in the first place.
The best thing to do is just stay inside.
Forget the outside world exists.
It has nothing to offer you.
The things that you might find will only disappoint you.

Going out is a Trojan horse.
Most of the time you spend 'being outside' will be spent doing the following: feeling awkward, wishing you were somewhere else, avoiding people you would rather not encounter, seeing and hearing things you don't like, and generally trying but failing to be the socially successful person you planned to become while you were doing your hair in front of your mirror.

Going out is a Trojan horse.
All of the best people stay in.
Become one of the elite.
Stay indoors at all times.
It's just better that way.
You're just better off that way.

Wind In The Willows

In the real life chain of events, Rat and Mole do not go on a boat ride.

What really happens is this: Rat initiates Mole's sexual awakening by politely but firmly 'suggesting' (with gun pointed to confused animal cranium) that Mole should suck him off.

Mole knows no better, as he has spent his entire life underground. He doesn't even have a TV. Imagine that? Fucking ridiculous. He has to get Badger to tape Big Brother for him.

Eventually, Mole becomes a 'muscle Mary' and outgrows Rat on the gay scene. This is far too much for the possessive Rat to bear, and at night he sits in his boat wondering how the hell Mole could be so audacious as to 'outgrow' him (that's the word the relationship councilor used anyway).

Mole is a bastard for being disloyal to Rat, his master and sole guiding light.
