Wow, that explains a lot. I have been wondering about the mystery that is belly button lint for a while now, and this is just the explanation I was looking for!

I've always called them poodles.

Dust Bunnies?

I always thought that was an Army creation. In Basic, no matter how clean the floors were at night, by morning the Bunnies were always back...causing the Drills to yell, scream and holler each and every morning.

My days still don't feel quite complete without someone screaming obscenities to my face.

Fluff is interesting stuff: a deadly poison on Bodega Minor, the diet staple of Frazelon V, the unit of currency on the moons of the Blurfoid System, and the major crop of the laundry supplies planet, Blastus III. One ancient legend claims that four pieces of fluff lie scattered around the Galaxy: each forming one quarter of the seedling of a tree with amazing properties, the sole survivor of the tropical planet Fuzzbol (Footnote 8). The ultimate source of fluff is still a mystery, with the scientific community divided between the Big Lint Bang theory and the White Lint Hole theory.
