Since fluff seems to be all the rage in Top Comments lately, I thought I would add to the inanity. It's Saturday night anyway so who gives a shit fluff.
The fluff stuff is below the double gnocchi before you get to the good stuff, but, first, a word from our sponsor:

I knew that when it came to fluff, emeraldmaiden had already claimed dryer lint and diaried doughnuts, so I had to consider other options. I then remembered a couple who were good friends of mine back in college days. They actually had a jar of belly button lint (or navel fluff, if you prefer). I suspected others had done the same so I Googled it, and guess what? Yep:
I have no idea why people are fascinated with belly button lint. I mean, look where it comes from:
Some people apparently find belly button lint disgusting. I don't particularly. But some things people do with their belly buttons are pretty disgusting:
Other things people do with belly button lint leave one incredulous:
Belly button lint has apparently spawned its own industry:
I can hear it now:
Q. "What do you do for a living, Daddy?"
A. "I'm in belly button lint, son."
And who knew belly button lint could be so sexy?
Well, that's about all the substance fluff I have on belly button lint except for this: Those jars of lint at the top of the diary represent the world record of 22 grams, collected by Australian Graham Barker. Personally, I think we need an American holding that record. Could it be you?
One thing is for sure: It would require a lot of navel-gazing.
