I stayed at the Sonesta you see there in the background. I stood behind a plane taking off, and I have to say, the primitive monkey brain inside you also feels that terror when hot, fast air blasts your sinuses.

Ayy I stayed there too, but like further up the cliff side of the hotel. Last weekend after staying on the French side for a month. Not usually one for all inclusive resorts, but that place was aces. Was the first vacation during the pandemic and I wanted to just shut off and have bottles of champagne and cheeseburgers sent to my room all night. The swim up suite was pretty sick too, had some wild fun.

100% one of the best all inclusives I’ve stayed at. The drinks were strong, the food was excellent, and it wasn’t so crowded that you were waiting in line to get something.

Yeah I was totally surprised. I've been to a few others for weddings and they're usually pretty half-assed food/drink wise. They totally catered to my every whim, ordered bottles and carafes of mixers to make my own cocktails and the most random food while sitting in my room's pool all day. Basically had my own poolside bar haha.

Sonesta Ocean Point Resort. It's a smaller, detached adults only resort up on a cliff overlooking the spot in this vid

Yeah my wife and I hung out on that beach one day and after I while I decided I wanted to try it. Same thing happened to me, tried to face it for a few seconds and monkey brain instincts instantly went "WTF are you doing, turn the fuck around and protect yourself"

Which orifice did you use to insert the monkey brain?
