Group vacation chats are where friendships quietly file for divorce. Everyone starts out excited, talking about sunsets and bonding. Then someone says «split evenly» and suddenly you’re three days deep into receipts, screenshots, and passive-aggressive math.

The issue is pretty much always the same: not every household is built the same. Two adults and a baby is not the same as two adults and three kids. One family needs two rooms. One family eats like they’re training for something. Splitting by family sounds clean until you realize one family is literally using more of everything.
