Question of my life.

[Blarg]

I've only found lint once and I remember being pretty excited when I found it so many years ago. Sometimes when I randomly pick my bellybutton now I get disappointed when I find nothing.

* Navel lint consists primarily of stray fibers from one's clothing, mixed with some dead skin cells and strands of body hair.

* Contrary to expectations, navel lint appears to migrate upwards from underwear rather than downwards from shirts or tops. The migration process is the result of the frictional drag of body hair on underwear, which drags stray fibers up into the navel.

* Women experience less navel lint because of their finer and shorter body hairs. Conversely, older men experience it more because of their coarser and more numerous hairs.

* Navel lint's color appears in a characteristic blue-grey. The color is most likely an average of all clothing colors worn.

* The existence of navel lint is entirely harmless, and requires no corrective action.

Questions answered, you can thank Wiki and Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki who apparently studies stupid shit for a living

That just takes all of the magic out of belly button lint

[Ramor]

Wait wait, that means someone had to study it and watch lint travel on a person's body.

How do people get money for shit like that

Long proposals written in a way no one would naturally talk with plenty of big words. Research departments wishing not to lose funding or have it reduced next year spending every penny they are given. etc etc.
