To tell you about such an interesting expression, which is quite rare, Vatu. What does Vatu mean? What does Watakat mean? However, before I tell you about this ambiguous expression, I would like to acquaint you with several useful articles, for example, what does it mean, how to understand the word Shazam, what the abbreviation means, what, etc. In general, there are several versions of the origin of the phrase "Roll Vata" ... For example all medicus just convinced that root cause the appearance of this famous phrase was exactly they, although criminals are convinced of the opposite, since they believe that the honor of the "discovery" belongs to them. So:
Roll cotton wool means messing around, just wasting your valuable time, doing something that will not bring any tangible results
Example:
- Well, what was the meeting?
- As usual, Katali Vatu!
- And did you manage to roll a lot?
- Almost a sofa !!!
The origin of the expression Katat Vata
During the study of a nurse, there are times when there is nothing to do, and so that the boys do not kick the "bully" in vain, the dressing or procedural nurse comes and gives a roll of cotton wool so that strong male hands do not stand idle. I had to do special " turunda"from cotton wool, which should subsequently be sterilized and then used during dressings or injections.
Therefore, when such a student sits for himself, and rolls cotton wool, and flirts with the nurses and is called " Roll cotton wool".
However, in prison"Rolling cotton wool" is a completely different process. It happens in this way: cotton wool is rolled out on the floor in a thin layer, then plaster is scraped off the walls, it should be in the form of fine dust, and then this "economy" was wound on a pin or wooden stick, with a diameter like a knitting needle. They twisted it very tightly and began to carry it across the floor with their foot or put slippers on their hand and continued roll cotton wool... All this was done in order to call the open one to light a cigarette. In this case, it is necessary as a kind of abrasive to increase the heating.
You can also light a cigarette from a light bulb, for this it is not necessary to do anything particularly difficult, just attach a dry cotton swab to an electric light bulb, near the base, and then fix this cotton swab with a piece of rag. After a while, a flame appeared. Sometimes, you can hear in the cell: " Damn, roll up some cotton wool!".

Where did the expression "roll cotton wool" come from and what does it mean? why cotton wool, and why roll and, most importantly, why? and got the best answer
Answer from Maxim Chertkov [guru]
The roots of the expression are from there "from places where life is not a pity to live" :). The expression itself has a dual meaning.
1. Roll up the mattress. Well, when you change your "place of residence" (the mattress, as you know, is wadded).
2. There is a "folk technology" that allows you to make fire with the help of a certain way of rolled cotton wool :). It helps a lot in conditions when, well, there is absolutely nowhere to light a cigarette. Would have a pea jacket with me or the same mattress :). The process itself is quite lengthy, and in addition, a smooth, dry surface is required, preferably a wooden one, such as a board. They ride along it :). The process can take from 10 to 20 minutes :).

I also heard this for the first time, it seemed to me that it meant doing an empty, useless business. We have a felt factory where wool is rolled to make felt, for example. And cotton wool probably, no matter how much you roll, nothing good will come of it. The most ridiculous was from such "deep" thoughts.
