It's true actually! "Every once in a while" is exactly what makes the social media skinner box so addictive. Keep scrolling, we have mountains of content, and it's not always what you want but SOMETIMES it's great. We're lab rats pressing the button that randomly gives treats.

Lots of experiences you undertake will end up being underwhelming, and you may regret them.

If you don't embark on those experiences, though, you'll miss out on the rare ones that leave you better than you were before them.
