Blame Deuce for this one. :eek:

I have not read this entire thread because frankly it scares me to death, but I notice that belly button lint is mentioned so I thought I'd share my theory on where it comes from. It actually explains two of the greatest mysteries known to man in one fell swoop. So, here it is.

Belly button lint comes from the Belly Button Lint Fairy (or BBLF as he is affectionately known). And where does the BBLF get the lint from you may ask? He is also actually responsible for all of the socks that turn up missing in the dryer. He flies around the earth collecting socks from dryers everywhere. He then takes them back to his castle on a deserted isle somewhere in the South Pacific where he turns the socks into belly button lint in his factory using trained monkeys dressed in pink tutus. He then travels around the world in his invisible VW Bug magically transporting the new belly button lint into innies everywhere. So, that is why socks disappear and where belly button lint actually comes from. Now you know and will never have to wonder about two of life's greatest mysteries ever again.

My eyeballs fell out when I saw that there were 424 NEW posts since that time!! Then I saw this thread - good grief people! Many of you need immediate medical attention!

To settle the great belly button lint debate, here's an interesting link I found: http://www.abc.net.au/science/k2/lint/default.htm . I hope you all find it helpful.

By the way, it took me almost 45 minutes to read through this beast - I hope you're all happy!!!! 😠


:D

Aerick's web site needs to be reintroduced.

If the BBLF stores the missing socks in the navels of unsuspecting men everywhere... only to be washed down the drain or in some cases hijacked by stucki's wife... why does he/she (faerie afterall 😕 ) keep doing it?

Cos if I think back to early years of my life... (wow what a trip) I must have been visited a gabillion times by that lil rascal!

Well actually, the faerie had to hire another full time assistant just to keep up with you. I think it was one he recruited from the tooth faeries camp cos he was getting confused and kept getting stuck in the innie looking for the baby tooth.
