    In Taiwan, we have CEMENT slides. It’s always always cool to the touch, kids are not going down it at terminal velocity and it doesn’t generate any static electricity.

    Metal slides > plastic slides. Even when wearing shorts on a hot day. Anything was better than the god damned static shock.

    • We had a park that was all wood out here. When I was a kid, it was my favorite park playground. They removed it some years ago because kids could get splinters. You know what we did if we got splinters when we were there as kids? We’d pull 'em out and keep on playing!
