Paper, Denim, and Herpes

Forwarded to me by my friend Matt.

Apparently, some girl slept with the owner of Paper, Denim & Cloth…she got herpes…he got a web site.

I will be burning my own Paper jeans tonight. They had a pretty skanky hole in them anyway. (Irony.)

Sweet dreams!

Some interesting (and gross) facts:

  • The average person spends one-third of his or her life in bed. This equals 220,000 hours over the course of a lifetime
  • A typical mattress can contain tens of thousands of dust mites
  • A single dust mite produces about 20 waste droppings each day (ewww)
  • Ten percent of the weight of a two-year-old pillow can be composed of dead mites and their droppings (more ewwww)
  • Dust mites have eight hairy legs, no eyes, no antennae, a mouth-part group in front of the body (resembles head) and a tough, translucent shell, giving a “fearsome appearance.” (I have pictures of them I can share if interested.)
  • Highest mite densities occur in the humid summer months
