Lake or Beach

Marcus and Dev wanted to go camping, but they could not agree on a spot.

Marcus: I think we should go to Pine Lake. It's quieter than the coast.

Dev: Quieter? It's just emptier. There's nothing to do there.

Marcus: That's the point. We're going camping to relax, not to find a crowd.

Dev: But the beach at Sandhead is warmer, and it's closer. We could be there in an hour.

Marcus: It's always crowded in summer. Last year we couldn't even find a place for the tent.

Dev: That depends on the day. If we go early, it's fine.

Marcus: I don't want to wake up at five just to get a spot.

Dev: Anyway, the lake has too many insects. I got bitten everywhere last time.

Marcus: The beach has too much wind. You couldn't light the fire, remember?

Dev: Okay, okay. So the lake is boring and the beach is crowded.

Marcus: We should just stay home and watch the camping show on TV.

Dev: Now that's the best idea you've had all day.
