You know the look. That wide-eyed, clenched-jaw, “Nope I’m not dying inside, thank you very much!” expression we’ve all worn at least once (or 472 times) while quietly contemplating how to fake our own disappearance and start over as a goat herder in the Alps.

Here’s the thing no one tells you about road trips: they’re basically trauma bonding with extra leg cramps. It starts as a cute idea — “Let’s pile into a car and make memories!” — but by hour six you’re 90% beef jerky, 10% passive-aggression, and you’ve stared too long into the void of a Love’s...| Psychology Junkie
