Today, an exchange student was telling us how he once used a black light to detect semen stains on his "abstinent" ex-girlfriend's face. I called him out on the obvious lie, saying it's an old urban legend. He wigged out, screamed that I'm a "bastarding shite-wank" and ran out of class. FML

Didn't know bastard could be used as a verb.

I don't know, shite-wank is pretty degrading.

Could've been called a cotton-headed-ninny-muggins.

Well that's an odd response to being called out on a lie.

He must make couples have kids without being married... Oh the power...!

"bastardizing" is the correct verb-usage as far as I know

It sounds like something the Scottish would say. *shudder*

Well it's actually being used as a participle, which technically means it's an adjective. Though the root form is a verb.

Not sure about this one, so we may need to call in an expert. Where is DocBastard when you need him?

Uh no, actually the words and grammar sounds pretty Scottish, or at least northern UK. A Scouser exchange student maybe?

Shrike is correct, 'shite' is an alternative to 'shit'. The guy could be from anywhere in the UK apart from Southern England essentially! OR he's been watching movies like Green Street or Lock Stock!

I'm from southern England and I say 'shite' 'wank' and 'bastarding' (even though bastarding isn't a real word, obviously). He could be from anywhere, but he's probably not from London or the south east. I don't think I've ever heard anyone from the south east say shite.

I'm from the southeast, and I day shite.

judging by your username I'd guess your some 15 year old that still believes the ol blacklight trick is real...tsk tsk

you're**** my brain was not functioning yesterday O_O

If its not real; then why do I see spots on my mattress when I shine the blacklight close to it? O.o (not trying to sound like a slob or anything, my boyfriend isn't always perfect with his "aim" so to speak..) being perfectly honest here, I didn't believe it til I tried it.

As in it doesn't stay on son like that. It will stain clothes but it won't stain your face

It actually does work. Ydi for not knowing how it works before contradicting the exchange student.

Assuming it even showed up after she washed her face, saliva also shows up, so she could lick her lips and look like she partook of the creamy banana. I'm not an expert though so anyone correct me if I'm wrong.

No it doesn't work, many of people have disproved it.

http://www.bvda.com/EN/prdctinf/semen_fluo.html It's pretty complicated and can NOT be done with out scientific equipment, meaning a black light from Spencer's isn't gonna cut it. So yeah, dry semen will fluoresce under certain circumstances but I doubt this exchange student was being truthful. Just sayin'.

Nice, Dyer18! YDI for not knowing how it works before contradicting OP.

Shine a black light on your favorite towel and I think you might change your mind, shite-wank.

It doesn't work on SKIN. Not after it has been washed or wiped off. Thats the point.

it doesn't always work on fabrics either if it's been long enough

*Runs off to test new development in black light theory*

If it's been washed off, it'll only show up after you spray stuff like luminol over the area. Ask anyone who works forensics.

Maybe the ex-girlfriend didn't wash her face afterwards.

It doesn't work on fresh, still on skin either....

Not true! Back when I was in high school my teacher (whom was a teacher) made us rub this stuff all over our hands, and look in the black light. Then made us scrub our hands vigerously in every spot even our nails. We went back and STILL could see stuff. No matter how hard or how much we washed. So FALSE!

72 - yeah, I'm guessing your teacher didn't put semen on your hands though. Certain things can be detected by black light if only washed with soap and water and are more difficult to get rid of, but plenty of things can simply be washed away as if they were never there. It all depends on what you're trying to detect.

72, you might want to go back to high school to learn about redundancy.

And you're 19? Me Thinks Yous Needs More Skool...

So here is how a black light works (specifically on semen): It emits an ultraviolet light that we cannot see. Certain proteins in bodily fluids absorb the light, and almost instantaneously re-emit it. Since some energy is lost during the absorption and re-emission, it reflects at a lower, visible wavelength. The point is you'd need to be able to identify what color the dominant seminic (not sure if that's the right word) proteins reflected UV as in comparison to whatever the hell is hanging out on the surface of your skin to be able to tell if she had it on her face. Also, some cleaning agents (including those used on skin) will actually function similarly to luminol, so there is a chance the girlfriend washed her face right after she got semen on her with a particular cleaning agent, which would have allowed the exchange student to identify the semen even after washing and being on her skin.

Also to add to my previous comment, she could have just wiped off the semen, then powdered her face or put on some kind of make up which could have had a luminol like effect.

Hey 72, i think i went to your school. And it proves that you're wrong because our school sucks ass at teaching people hahaha

I'm more interested in the part where that exchange student used a black light on his ex-girlfriend. Did he not trust her or was she a ****? I'm curious now.

Don't know the difference between fact and fiction.
