What's under your Couch?

I just learned an upsetting term for dust bunnies: slut's wool.

Re: pics in the banner--it is indeed by a Pre-Raphaelite--Dante Gabriel Rosetti to be specific. I forget what this particular painting is called.

Thanks for noticing.

Possibly comes from the use of the term 'slut' to mean 'a slovenly woman' - i.e. someone who neglects the housework. Not 100% on the etymology there.. but a possibility..
