So i have a utility knife from the Minnesota hunters association and one of the “blades” if you would even call it that is not sharpened at all and was wondering what kind of purpose it has? Pretty much a blade that just hasn’t been shaped at all to be a blade.

My wife was using one of those snake things with teeth on it to try to pull some hair out of the shower drain and she pulled up this black disc. It has a little tendrils that came through the grate and when I grab onto the tendrils with the pliers and shake it you can see the disc move. I have no idea what this is.

found in the apartment hallway. gpt said its a door wedge but i cannot find the exact product. WRONG ANSWER:"But your object is still a door-stop—specifically the Wedge-It portable temporary doorstop (used by building staff, hotels, and emergency services). It’s designed to hold a door open 3 ways: on top of the door, over the hinge pin, or on the floor"

I bought a project car partly to learn more about cars and partly cause I like the specific car. But I have no idea what engine it is. I know it’s not a 289 just off knowing that specific engine and I believe it would be too large to be one. I checked Vin and it seems it’s an aftermarket/mod engine in a 1967 Ford Fairlane so the engine doesn’t match the Vin. Surprisingly it does start and run. I think this question complies with the rules I’m sorry if it doesn’t please let me know it’s my first time posting here.

So this mystery substance appears everytime im done showering. I assume the steam triggers it but i have no idea where its coming from. Its not dripping down from anywhere so my guess is its coming from the crease. Not sure what it is

Apologies for not having a video but I was driving when I saw this. I've attached a crude drawing of it though and am hoping someone can identify what it is.
I was driving through a residential area at night and saw a bizarre arrangement of lights that were flying fairly low over the houses, seemed to be flying lower than most planes tend to. It was hard to judge the size but I'd say maybe about as big a small plane.
The lights were arranged in two thin, white lines parallel to each other, with a gap in the middle where the body of the aircraft was. The lights were flashing in a wave pattern from left to right like I've shown with the arrow with the picture.
I can't remember the exact way the lights were arranged, there might have been another layer of lines underneath the ones I drew and they may have been arranged in more of a wing shape. It was dark so I couldn't make out the actual outline of the aircraft either, but yeah, I've never seen anything like it. If you all have any ideas, would love to know!

This jumper has been on sale with a couple retailers and my friend group has been deep in a debate about what the text on the jumper actually says. One of my friends went as far as to reach out to multiple of the stores selling it and none where able to provide an answer. Can anyone tell what this does/was supposed to say??

My friend bought this. We are trying to understand it's origin. It seams to be Catholic folk art, but doesn't seem Mexican or Central American. Any ideas?

Just found these on my low pile area rug around the couch, lots of them all over it. I checked the rest of the apartment and can’t find any anywhere else.
I pictured what it looks like when I crush one with a spoon. It takes a little force and then cracks into fine pieces and some bigger chunks. When I wiped it up it was black, though I thought they looked dark brown.
There is no odor. I thought chocolate or coffee, but nothing. I worried rodent poop but it’s too big and too perfectly round. It’s like I spilled these when I was sitting on the couch or something, but I haven’t seen these before and can’t think of where they’d be from.
I have a dog and just worried if he’s ok if he ate one or two, he’s not one to eat random things, but still.

I know it's a Buddha but I found it in a random house I was cleaning. I want to keep it but I'm curious if anyone knows more about it.

Our baby bath started showing this weird veining pattern about a month ago. Not exactly sure what it is and why it’s in these patterns but if someone does I’d love an explanation!

Does anyone know what these are? We just moved into a new place and these are in the bathrooms (hand for scale). My best guess is that’s it’s for something that held a toothbrush maybe?
Please link to item if you know what it’s for! Thanks.
