The Art of Leaving: A Mathematical Approach

When in doubt, follow these simple steps to determine when to leave your paradise:

  1. Check the coffee machine. If it's not producing a sufficient buzz, it's time to leave.
  2. Calculate the number of poolside naps you can take without getting sunburned.
  3. Measure the distance from your beachside hammock to the nearest cocktail bar.
  4. Estimate the probability of a sunburn, heatstroke, or spontaneous combustion.
  5. Determine if your tan lines are visible to the outside world.

Using these factors, we can create a simple algorithm:

Let x be the number of poolside naps. Let y be the number of cocktails consumed. Let z be the number of sunburns sustained. Then, the optimal time to leave is when:

  x + y + z > 10

This equation is based on extensive research and rigorous mathematical proofs, or so we claim. Don't question the science, just follow the formula.
