I dont remember the age, but it was before Kindergarten, thought men came into the house at night to load the next days shows into the TV.

This is what living in a city does to a mfer. Everyone knows its the trees swinging their branches makes the wind.

lol, never even been to a real city in my entire life. Literally the most populated place I've ever been to doesn't even crack a population of 50k people, and the most populated place I ever lived was a tenth of that. Been a small town girl my whole life.

Definitely heard the trees thing as a kid though, I'd just already been told that trees were being blown around by the wind, but nobody could tell me that cars were being blown around by the wind I felt when I saw them, so that's why I concluded it must be the cars that were responsible for the wind.
