Combat tourism

Going into a combat zone for only a few hours just to get a combat patch.

Yeah the officer has a combat patch. But he/she only got it through combat tourism. They didn't earn it.

Asylum Tourism

Making special trips to visit shut-down insane asylums. Can be done in real life or in virtual life. Virtual Asylum Tourism allows a wider range of travel and prevents risk from hazards like asbestos, arrest, and collapsing stairways, but it lacks the sickening real-life terror that follows exposure to these places. A variant is collecting books featuring images of asylums, but this is not quite as bent as purchasing airplane tickets.

*Hey, sis, I need to get away from it all.
*Well, let's head up to Danvers State before they bulldoze the Kirkbride and build some unique luxury condos! Asylum Tourism always cheers you up!
