Snowy Escape Catalog Hints

So I wondered if there were any hints in the Snowy Escape descriptions and I went through them. Take this with a grain of salt, but hints for future packs are common in the game so who knows :) These were the finds:

- There are a few mentions of robbing banks and jewel thiefs (it’s in a few descriptions, the furry rug is one of them)
- Someone named Lara Klusemann is mentioned. George Klusemann was a children’s books author.
- There are many love and relationships references throughout the descriptions. Makes sense for objects that are meant to be cosy and wintery though.
- There is a mention of someone disguised as a bellhop (Scandalous Snow Dreams nightstand), and there’s also a bellhop Simmie that you can get from the the vending machine.
- There are multiple references to weddings and a honeymoon (the Heater, Lodge table)
- Soap Opera’s and dramatic TV plots are mentioned a few times.
- There’s two mentions of a Baguette eating contest
- There is a reference to the movie Poltergeist (1982). It’s in the description of Paranormal Plates. It’s a play on the ‘Stack of chairs' in that movie.
- There’s one description that is called ‘Destination Privy’. It describes a luxurious building/resort where there’s a a mall with many shops on one floor, a sports center on another, a zoo and botanical gardens on another.
- A Barn is mentioned one time (under ‘World’s fastest table’).

Of course the bellhops are interesting because Snowy Escape lacked hotels/resorts but they were in this year’s survey. The baguette eating contest and the barn are also strange because they seem so random. The Paranormal one is also an odd one imo because the reference to Poltergeist is so obvious. And the Destination Privy could also mean something because we had the future cube hint (‘destination to elope’), the eloping patch and Malls in this year’s survey.

I personally think the rest are just fun/inspired writing, haha. What do you think?
