I just... really don't understand.

Why wouldn't you want to live like this, Vita Clotilde-Morris? There's so many nice things, especially once you save up enough money to get a car. Once a year - maybe more, it depends - it's your household's designated day of the season to visit the fair. Because of the schedules we live on, for all intents and purposes there are no lines for any of the attractions.
