The problem with that view is it can get real sappy real fast. That broken tile isn't a monument to a dropped pretzel, it's just a broken tile. People attach meaning to everything, but the place itself doesn't care. The mall is dead because it failed, not because our memories left. Focusing on the past like that just covers up the real story of why these places close, like bad management or the town changing. Sometimes a dry fountain is just a sign of a bad business plan.

Check if your skin is totally dry before you start, @nancybennett. I had that skipping too and realized a little sweat or oil from my hands on my temple was making the blade grab weird. Wiping the area with a dry cloth first fixed it for me.
