    Depends on if you're an innie or an outie in my esteemed medical opinion.

    Or not.

    Apparently the colour of your belly button fluff depends on the colour of your clothes. It tends to be blue because that's the "average" colour of the clothes people tend to wear.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,916 ✭✭✭shopaholic01


    Mould - try washing and drying fully.

    It's blue because it's blue, therefore it's blue Q.E.D.

    When I wear red t-shirts I have red fluff so it is colour of your clothes. Look at the fluff of a dryer, it's nearly always navy/grey/blue.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,629 ✭✭✭TheBody


    Perhaps you are rotting inside and some sort of navy poison is seeping out and dying the fluff navy? I'd go see a doctor/undertaker.

    Because your t-shirt isn't black, its very very very very very dark blue Dougall:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,171 ✭✭✭af_thefragile


    Where did that Brainiac episode go where the "I can do science me" guy discovers why belly button fluff is blue...

    From what I remember its because most clothes have blue fibres in them which accumulate in your belly button hence the fluff is blue. The brainiac guy then wears red clothes for a day and at the end of it he find red fluff in his belly button... So its to do with the clothes you wear!

    Blue????
    Mine is green.. I've not had a green teeshirt since my ma bought me a tmnt tee years ago!!!

    There once was a belly button whose fluff was blue as blue could be. One day a spider came along and said THAT FLUFF BELONGS TO ME . So I kicked him in the knee. He.He.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    I sometimes get freaked out when I have worn a red tshirt the previous day and while in the shower I see red belly fluff. I have to double check that I haven't sprung a leak :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 230 ✭✭bellylint

    the belly button fluff is really just bum fluff that migrated north for the summer


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34,809 ✭✭✭✭smash


    It's just microfibres that come off the material because of the hair on your belly. I recommend you shave a big circle around your belly button :D

    Its not just the belly though that causes belly button fluff, hair gets moved up from below the belly button as well as down from above it.

    So are your undwerwear blue op?

    It is all caused by the hair though, I suggest complete body waxing to resolve your problem OP!

    You can save it up and knit a nice blue jumper for yourself

    Whatever you do don't unscrew your belly button, otherwise your bum will fall off.

    And don't undo the knot either


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,477 ✭✭✭Hootanany

    Another unexplained phenomenon I have encountered regularly is after a heavy booze session, I ALWAYS wake up the next morning with dirt under my fingernails. It's not that I'd be crawling around the ground when I'm drunk, and they don't have that distinctive smell of ahem....fun times.......so how the hell do they get so dirty?

    I've developed a fear of bellybuttons...

    My roommate stuck his finger in his, kept it there for ages, then stuck it under my nose when I was watching tv. Wiped it all over my upper lip....I'll never forget the smell.

    Why do they smell? Mine doesn't, that I know, and I've never had fluff in it either. I know I'm a girl but my other roommate is a girl and she's always on about hers...

    I'm guessing they don't wash a lot.

    They do, smelly bellybutton guy showers every morning, and sometimes in the evening as well! Just constantly has a smellybutton.

    He has a bacterial infection - very common in people with 'deep innies'. Send him a pharmacist/GP.

    He probably needs to dry it fully after showering.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,705 ✭✭✭Johro


    Btw, if he tries that thing with the smellybutton finger again, kick him in the nuts ffs.
    Ew.

    Oh I did, But he does krav maga and had me pinned and at the mercy of said smellybutton finger in seconds....


  • Registered Users Posts: 344 ✭✭ikeano29


    I don't think the people with hairless bellies understand this at all, it's got nothing to do with washing yourself, it's the hairs around the bellybutton that pull bits of fabric in during the day while you are active and the t-shirt is rubbing over and back through the belly hairs.

    It only takes a couple of hours for the buildup!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,477 ✭✭✭Hootanany


    Smells index finger


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,465 ✭✭✭✭kneemos


    As an energy saving device lay down in the garden and allow nesting birds to remove the fluff
