description:
The day you discover Santa is just a bunch of drunk people who work in malls. The day your Dad isn't bigger and better than someone else's Dad. The day you find out that life doesn't go on forever, even for people and pets you love. The day your first love kisses someone else. The day you find out that work means just that. The day your hedonistic lifestyle fucks your health over big time. The day you discover that 90% of bands are in it for the money alone. The day you discover that it got as good as it's going to get a long time ago. The awful time you discover that the link between your brain and your genitals no longer works as it used to. Yes my friends, this is the Disappointment tango!
