I doubt it'll get very far with this crowd, but my good friend from uni has been trying to drag me there for 15 fecking years. Every video and story I see feels super cringe. Am I missing anything?

If you can go, do it. It’s kind of cringe, and it’s full of grotesque techno ghouls in turnkey luxury RV camps, but it’s an amazing event like nothing else on earth.
Despite the pmc contingent, it’s still mostly artists and musician type people. I went with my wife, who worked on building giant (200 + foot) zoetropes that animated 3D sculptures.
Just wandering around the desert, high as shit, finding a tiny concert attended by like 10 people lit all by candles, and it’s just dark in every direction was so rad.
Also, it’s your friend, they want to do something with you that’s obviously important to them, and you’re turning them down because you’re afraid that it might be “cringe?” Come on.
also i've had fun are pre-burning man parties in San Francisco that were enjoyable, since it made up a lot of people who wanted to go but can't afford or make it. I mean if you're not into techno and other types of electronic music it's probably not your scene though, but i've never been able to afford or get a ticket back when I thought it was worth going to, and those were the next best thing. I don't really know how easy it is to find these events anymore cause I've completely dropped out of that type of scene, but they use to rent out big warehouses around the city and throw some good parties with some decently popular artists and that was pretty cool.
