This is slightly tongue in cheek, but I see this in others, plus I used to be the same. One goes to hard airports, with hard ATC, slots everywhere, 3 digit landing fees. I’ve even known people fly to Gatwick EGKK just to get it into their logbook, although a) admittedly you don’t need an IR for that, and b) it would cost you around 2k today. Then after maybe 10 years one loses the will to do...
