    My flatmate introduced me to this phenomenon of "rising dust" which was explained to me that it stems from dirty ashy fireplaces. It was also was touted as a reason to clean the entire fireplace as opposed to just the ashes.

    Anybody care to enlighten me on the phenomenon, pardon the pun

    Bring your fireplace outside. The weather will make sure that there is no rising dust. :D

    Introduce him to the concept of the 'Rising Fist' and get him to clean the fireplace instead...

    Dust is everywhere. Problem is on days like today you can actually SEE it when the sunshine shows the dustmotes everywhere.

    I just close the blackout blinds and live with it.

    Quentin Crisp sorted that out after four years. LOL

    Get him to show you the best way to clean the fireplace totally with a demonstration.

    Then the fireplace is grand for a bit.

    Dude, you've got hundreds of thousands of FACE MITES living on Your face right now. You've got bigger issues to be worrying about


    (actually don't worry cause they're harmless and universal and they don't even have rectums so they're not pooing on you)

    All the bacteria that lives all over and inside you is pooing everywhere. 30% of your stool is actually bacteria.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,021 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    Really, who cares.... really? Unless OCD about something that falls from our skin and from open fireplaces every day. Sad.

    Dust if you must. It just happens, and will never be beaten. Never.

    I beg your pardon. That stool was bought from Ikea. 30% of it is plastic.
