When we wear the shirt regularly it may get dirty, covered in hooker sweat (too many files), stripper glitter (oh crap), or horndoctor blood (corrupt files again). While the shirt might be dirty we can wash (format) it. This should remove those stains and smells and it will be clean, meaning no stains (errors).

Haha. I just do it because when I do it works better.

I'm so confused!!! Should I use a stain removing detergent or one that makes my data April fresh?
