Put it this way, I'd rather be a brain dead moron who had circumnavigated than simply a brain dead moron. All I need to do now is circumnavigate.

I am certainly guilty of making a few jokes about their voyage and you have a good point. I may have plans to get experience and do my voyage(s) in a safer manner, but right now all I have is plans and they have been around the world.
