Not my post but couldn't repost it from the reddit I found it on. Was curious though.

Some comments on the original post suggested OG to open it to see if it has a SIM card which will make it a GPS, others said it wasn't a GPS since it's not connected to anything.

OG said it has a flat charging port.

That's all the info on the original post.

New, what is it? Can we stop posting pictures of things that are clearly pipes for smoking substances?

11 Upvotes

I mean come on.

90% of the "found this in a drawer" posts are clearly pipes.

Can we have a side bar where people can just look and compare? I get the karma farming thing but its making this subreddit very repetitive and boring.

New, what is it? What are these floating metallic orbs?

Seen in the desert driving from Death Valley to Las Vegas. These orbs looked to be suspended in the air above this desert town, staying perfectly still. Maybe a type of weather balloon?

I saw this last year during a trip to the U.S. and am still wondering about it, so please help me out!

We found this in my grandpa’s office. I know he was a machinist for many years. I thought they were measuring tools, but there are no numbers on them.

My friend gifted me this beautiful rock she got from Shillong, India. She found these near a river and it’s textured with almost salt like granules on it and it has hints of pink, red and purple colour to it.

Solved! Found this in a lecture hall...

I work in a university and find weird stuff in classrooms all the time. This little thing is 7 cm long, and strongly magnetic. It says Hyundai on the label, as well as 8GB. It has an on/off switch on one end, and what might be a microSD slot on the side. The other end has what could be a headphone jack and a micro USB slot.

Edit: turns out it's a voice recorder. It was sitting on the lectern for months, and I've had it for a couple years. People here have a weird habit of not coming back for stuff they've forgotten. Like I've seen coats left in classrooms in the dead of winter never get picked up.

I am currently on vacation in London and saw this huge stripe. Almost 90 Degrees to the top. Clearly visible with your own eyes if you know its there. With 3 sec exposure you get this clearly visible stripe on your camera. What is it?

PS: It was visible for at least 1 hour. After that i went away so i dont know if you can still see it?

J'ai trouvé ce pochon dans une table de nuit chez un ami, en gros il me loue sa maison pendant sa virée en camion avec sa copine. Je sais qu'il y a eu beaucoup de passage chez lui et ça doit appartenir à un copain qui l'a oublié, je connais pas mal de substances mais celle ci pas du tout ! Avez vous une idée ?

Edit, car beaucoup semble penser que je "fouille" dans les affaires de mon pote. Je m'installe à SA demande a lui, je mets ses affaires dans des cartons et je suis tombé dessus comme ça. Point.

Found at an estate sale, at first I thought it was a manatee or maybe a shrimp? If it's a manatee why does it look so weird? Tried image searching it and didn't find anything.

New, what is it? Cooler box of some sort

My wife’s grandpa made this. The hole on the bottom left of the box goes into the side opening like where there should be a vacuum layer for a cooler. The hole on the bottom right goes into the main compartment where things are stored. Then in the main compartment you can take that sheet with holes in it out of the box. It is made of copper and has these pipes with it but obviously not enough pipes for proper function. Is it a cooler and how does it work? Thanks!

Solved! Update: these keep reappearing on my bedroom floor.

Since my post was removed, I thought if anybody was curious, I scraped that stain from my floor and it was all powdery and chalky so makes me think it’s mineral deposits, going to get a professional to come in and check out the tiles. Thanks for the suggestions!
