If it could, why don't I just think about the feeling of pure bliss right now, and get the same effect without needing to go on the vacation?

I tried that. It has some effect.

I still wouldn't go on that vacation, no. Actually, I would probably try to outlaw it. :)

As of this writing, 51% of voters (37 people) would go on the vacation. It is a bold claim to say they cannot be trusted with the decision. Why do you hold this position?
