This is a question Useless Information

Did you know that crabs wee through their eyes? That maidenhair moss is so called because Anglo-saxons thought it looked like pubes? That Albanians have 17 different words for moustache? Astound us with your utterly useless and obscure knowledge.

It's a skin thing................
Ever wondered why skins seem stickier at certain times of the year, and at other times they don't stick for shit?

Well, it's the same reason that potatoes, when being fried for chips, go a lovely golden brown dead easy at certain times of the year, but at other times of the year will become totally fossilised in oil rather than go brown at all.........

It's all about sugar content. During the summery months that whatever trees are used for skins and the gum grow, they have a high sugar content, making the gum nice and sticky. MmMmmmm........

If the trees used for the skins and gum have been murdered when the sun's not about, their sugar content is low, making them annoying at best, and at worst, the reason why your girlfriend won't let you skin up any more in the lounge, what with the mess of failed doobs all over the carpet.

Same fur chips an that. High sugar content, nice Strangler-like golden brown fries. Low sugar content, peely wally as, but suitable for diabetics, and veggies, and blind people I guess.........

Woo hoo, first post.

Whassat I hear? A trumpet?

Oh, last post........... :-/
