You're a dirty rug. A dirty, dirty rug that needs to be punished.

Finally, the weather has been nice enough to warrant some spring cleaning. This means carrying out the rug and beating the crap out of it, local-style.

I live next to a busy street with the window almost always open, so dust collection seems to be the secondary job of the rug in my living room. My vacuum cleaner is literally from Soviet times, branded (1965), so it doesn't suck very well, meaning I have to beat the rug.
In every neighborhood there's a central area where metal bars are propped up purely for this purpose (but can also double as places to air dry laundry). You hang up the rug on these polls then proceed to beat the hell out of it with a rug beater.
Christ, look at that plume. I was beating this thing for a good 30 minutes and the dust kept comin.

Sam, a Kaz-18, gets into the act too, taking out some of his stress along with it.

New post to come in a few days..
