When I was 16 I was a little shit. Went to a school where there were loads of posh, upper-middle class kids who desperately wanted to try weed but had absolutely no way to get it. My friend and I sold them so much random shit that wasn't weed. Once we scraped this outer layer of soft, brown matter off a wooden park bench that had been in the rain, rolled it into a ball and said it was hash. We got expelled, but not because of that - just because we were idiots.
Ah shit - now you've got me wondering... What is that soft brown stuff? Decaying wood? Some type of mold/mildew?
I vividly remember that stuff from when I was younger, but haven't thought about it in forever.
Sounds like Dog Slime Mould - Which is actually a bacterium rather than a mould despite its name.
Thanks! Not sure about OP, but that's not it for me - it's a fine layer that'd collect under your fingernails if you softly scraped them over it rather than big globs like that.
I appreciate you though!
