I realize this is retarded but...

You're not as retarded as you think you are.

In a nutshell: back during WWII, the US military needed a way to keep moisture out of ammunition cases, so waterproof utility tape was invented by Johnson & Johnson...they called it DUCK tape, owing to the expression "water off a ducks back"

After the war & the US entered their housing boom, the color was changed from green to silver & builders began to call it DUCT tape over the years...but basically, both DUCK & DUCT are technically correct

Also, for the record, the nursery rhyme "Ring around the Rosy" is about the Bubonic plague; The smell of rotting corpses & disposal of infected cadavers by fire.

This is true.


"Ring around the Rosie" - Describes the rash that the plague incurred.
"Pocket full of posies" - They would stuff their pockets full of flowers to help hide the smell.
"Ashes" - Burning the bodies of the infected.
"We all fall down" - Everybody dies.

See? I know stuff too. 8|

HEY, I only had to Google the "ashes" part, and that was just to reaffirm my guess.
