Man, that reminds me of when my nephew asked why my jeans always had holes in the knees!

Man, that feeling is so familiar. It's wild how our brains can build up these whole stories around a simple broken thing. Had a lamp that would only turn on if you jiggled the cord just right, convinced it had a ghost or something. Turns out the plug was just loose in the wall outlet. Felt pretty silly after that.

Oh man, I saw a whole thing about how that old treated wood can actually leach arsenic for decades. Super sketchy.
