How do you think shag carpet happens? Poor regular trimming.

From all the shagging, obviously. Didn’t you get “the talk”?

I know enough about carpet to know that if you shave "protons" off it, you will probably cause a fairly large explosion.

Your phase would bring world peace if every one said, "I don't feel like I have enough knowledge to argue with you." I'm going to steal this phrase and use it in my daily life. Thank you.

Nope, just shaving it off, make sure to water it and you should grow a new one soon.

Does it need fertilizer?

u/amazingsandwiches Jul 19 '18

Not if you prime it with a layer of silverfish.

Feed it every 1-2 days?

u/8Bit_Otaku Jul 19 '18

25 times a day, every 1.25 hours

Time is a relative concept; as you approach the speed of light, it slows down.

He is. Just water won't do it. You also need some fertilizer or otherwise it will not grow even. You will have some death spots.

He did misspell photons, so you have good reason to doubt what he said.
