Predicta Siesta scored
#16

It is the tobacco tar - same stuff that accumulates in lungs of those who smokes.
Good thing is, it is outside your lungs, it is not going to get there, it is easily cleaned with any solvent (just pick one that does not harm the plastic) and it actually preserved the plastic to some degree.
Smoking is eventually good for something! Icon_lol

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
