When I was around four or five I heard people say "candy floss" alot. My mom is REALLY serious about keeping teeth clean, so she makes me floss very night. And I thought "candy floss" was floss that tasted like sweet candy! So I got upset that I flossed very night with boring floss. After that I always looked in the store to see if they had candy floss, but all I found was regular floss. Once I asked a clerk where the candy floss was, and he showed me a basket piled high with cotton candy. I thought, "What a moron! Doesn't he know what candy floss is?" Now, though, I know better...
