There are things in life we come across that we just don't have any idea what their purpose is, and if you have something, maybe someone on the internet knows what it is!

Those white, plastic, spiky, flat, tab things that come with wrapped painting canvases. I think they're for hanging? But I can't figure out where they go on the back of the canvas, or if that's their function. Never bothered to look it up, either.

I believe they're for stretching the canvas after painting, because wet paint can make the canvas sag slightly. You pop them into the corners at the back, between the wood frame and the canvas :-)

    I was going to post simply "Life" but I think this covers that. Life in general is parasitic it must destroy to survive but it doesn't have to do it with the cruelty of humanity.

    Very fancy China and stemware that are too precious to be used.
