I recently dug up a stack of magnets from who-knows-when. It was very difficult to break them apart from each other, but of course, once I did it the first time they separated easily on subsequent efforts.

I've noticed this before with fridge magnets. When you first put a fridge magnet on, you can lift it easily and slide it around. But when it's been there a while, no matter how weak it is, you have to really work to get it to lift off and you can't slide it at all.

Why is this?
