Car Washes Still Awesome At Age 26!

I distinctly remember as a child begging my parents to go through the auto car wash whenever we were near one. They would give in once in a while (probably based on the dirtiness of the car vs. how much of an annoying kid I was being).

Today, I needed a car wash. I could have gone outside and made a chore of it, but INSTEAD I went to the auto wash, paid way too much money for a crappy car wash, and had the time of my life as I was pulled down some train tracks 20 feet forward at 1/2 a mile an hour! OH MAN! I turned up the radio too loud, sang along to 'Say It Ain't So' at the top of my lungs, and smiled uncontrollably as the spinning towels slapped against the car and soapy water dripped down the car.


What is the most ridiculous thing that YOU were excited about as a child for no good reason at all??
