Disappointments
Disappointment #1: Fake-snow
I thought fake snow was flash-frozen water blasted out by a powerful fan. It is actually foam and makes children cry if it gets in their eyes.
Disappointment #2: Ice-skating rinks
Many outside ice-skating rinks are made of plastic. They still appear to be slippery, however, and people trying to skate cling to the outside wall like water going down a plug-hole.
How did I get to be 42 and not know these things already?
