I assume you're asking about pencil erasers? A pencil leaves a trail of microscopic graphite "flakes" on the paper, visible as black or grey lines to the human eye. An eraser is a soft rubber abrasive, which gently scrubs the top layer of paper, removing a little of paper together with graphite particles. Clumps of used rubber, mixed with paper and graphite are produced as the stuff you brush or blow off the paper when you're done erasing. It's mostly the rubber with the graphite mushed into it. There's a little bit of the top layer of paper mixed in as well - which is why you can't erase the same spot too much or you wear a hole in the paper.

I often wonder if when French people swear, do they say pardon my English?

I love how you start off the explanation with a sentence to make it seem as if you actually typed the entire repsonse yourself.

and you talk about us bitching. queen B
- GonzoStyle - 03-07-2006
I'm not bitching, just pointing out the obvious.
You got caught, don't switch the focus.
- Black Lazerus - 03-07-2006
Why would you need to point out the obvious?
it is defined as easily perceived by the senses or grasped by the mind. you are as bad as the people who need to read the warning label on salt that says " Warning: High in sodium"
- Danked - 03-07-2006
I can picture Laz sitting at the computer with a dictionary, an encyclopedia, and a container of salt on his lap.
- Arpikarhu - 03-07-2006

I picture Laz with a copy of "Honkey-Hating Coon" mumbling "Come on. Fuck up, Mother Fuckers. Fuck up. Ima MENSA and I got MAAAD Skills to represent."

I just made an observation as to the intro of the explanation, then you said that you did type it. No need to get snippy with me, uncle tom.
