I swear every time my spouse tries to use wd40 I have a stroke. We have several kinds of specific lubes for different situations ffs, all in the same easy to access bin, stop trying to use wd40 as a catch all super lube that's not how it works.
People don't send letters much anymore but please don't lick the envelopes. Just dip a finger in water. Just as easy, less germy, and doesn't cause a lingering chemical taste.
Nobody seems to understand how to use dental dams. Look it up, stay safe people.

Both have been used at different times so the words are effectively interchangeable. However I'd also like to point out that in my example specifically duct tape is the proper word to use as that's how it is used in Red Green:
As a huge fan of ol' Green (born & raised Michigander), and I don't recall him ever using it on ducting, yet I can easily remember a plethora of examples where he used it for its hydrophobic sealing properties.
