A Series Of Unfortunate Events- The Slippery Slope
Like handshakes, house pets, or raw carrots, many things are preferable when not slippery.

They were just an ordinary soft pair of second-hand jeans until Jamie Kelly tried them on. Then they became tight, smelly & scratchy – with a bit of a haunting problem!
