Y is the fluff that gets caught in ur bellybutton always the same color,regrdless of what color garment u wear

Question

Everyday guys with hairy bellybuttons get fluff caught in their bellybutton...regardless of the fabric u wear you always have some there at the end of each day! This i can kinda understand due to friction....but why the heck is it always the same colour!???? Regardless of what colour clothing you have been wearing...red,blue,black,grey,... etc,etc the fluff is always the same colour...in my case dark blue...why is this!??? Its one of mans great unsolved mysteries! Can someone please help me??

Answer 1

lol...too funny......well....the 'lint' is really composed of very tiny sections of fibers.

There are a couple mechanisms going on.

First: Not ALL of the fibers of any garment contains the dye pigment. The fibers that come off the garment don't necessarily have a color. They are so small you can barely see them, let alone be able to detect a characteristic color. More than likely each fiber is predominantly a relatively clear looking fiber. Look at them under a *strong* magnifying glass.
Anyway, as these come off the garment they collect into tiny dust-bunnies and collectively they have an average color....I would guess that all colors of them would be a near gray color...so your in your case...blue....that's close enough.

Granted, not all these dust-bunnies are small. Sometimes they are bigger and you can see more of the color, but you are wearing many clothing items, and chances are you wear the same clothes right, so the dust-bunnies will necessarily be the same aggregate color.

Another mechanism that is going on is wear. You wear your clothes many times. It rubs against your kin and wears off the fibers in some places more than others because of tightness or more frequent contact. As such it's possible the fibers that are coming off the garment are the lower layers. The ones that don't have as much dye pigments in them in the first place, and again....collectively, they along with other fibers fro other clothing items collect and give the same average color.

Those are probably what the majority of the reasons are. That and the fact, as I mentioned a minute ago, that you wear the same clothing items, and they are all of the same color.

I hope this helps solve this phenomena of nature for you! lol

Answer 2

It's a mixture of small fibers worn off the clothing by abrasion, mostly from underwear, mixed with dead skin cells. Its color, like the lint in the lint filter of a clothes dryer, does tend toward the average color of the clothing. Lint from a load of dark clothing is definitely darker than from a load of light clothing.

Answer 3

its because the colors mush together to make a blue grey

Answer 4

i think the bigger question is why does your finger smell like ass after you stick it in your belly button?

Answer 5
