 There seem to be quite a few comics that involve some variation of the phrase “You need to get out either more or less.” Might be worth starting a category?

 :(Trying "get out more" just gets me this and something from [[1506: xkcloud]] that I'm not sure is relevent, and I've not managed to establish any obvious variation with any good matches... But probably just not hit on the various phrase-variations that you've already thought of. Just me not currently being imaginative enough, I'm sure.)
