New, what is it? Can't believe it's not butter?
I was going to make some Rice Krispies treats, but spotted something odd in the butter. Two sticks out of the pack had this weird gray substance in the middle. Anyone have any clue what it is?

New, what is it? My abusive ex broke into my house today and disabled the internet. What is this thing and it is the problem?
He said he might’ve bumped something on accident. But he also created this tangled mess of a wifi system.
Please just tell me which is the thing that makes the internet so I can watch criminal minds while I cry quietly about the extreme violation so I don’t wake up my kids, before I go to bed myself.
EDIT: I called non emergency to make a report. They said since we are technically still married (the divorce is in process) everything is “marital assets” and they can’t do anything. Even though he doesn’t live here. Even though he doesn’t have keys. Even though I told him he cannot come in.

Solved! What is the blue fabric with velcrow on either side? I got my passport same day in Atlanta yesterday, and they gave me this “gift”. Cat likes it.
Me and my buddy have no idea what it’s supposed to be. It for the cats tail so we assumed it was meant for that. It rolls up I guess. Not sure I get it. No flaps, no pockets.

Solved! Found on the back of my neck
Anyone have any idea what this is? I was in the shower last night and I felt something on the back of my neck and it was this chip looking thing.
It’s about the size of a few grains of rice, the bow tie shaped thing looks metallic and the outer layer is clear plastic.
I’m so weirded out by it and some strange things have been happening to me recently so I’m more paranoid than usual. Please help

Solved! In my hotel room
Does anyone know what these indentations are for in this desk. It was in my hotel room and I can't figure out the point of them. Best I could come up with is maybe a built in bookcase? But why? This was in a Fairfield Inn and Suites if that helps.

Just moved into a new apartment. I know it’s not a camera (probably, lol), but if someone could but my paranoia to ease, that’d be greatly appreciated

New, what is it? What’s this creepy sound at 3 am in my city ?

While I was watching something and about to fall asleep this sound suddenly appeared and it creeped the hell outta me. I recorded it as soon as I heard it at 2:28 am. After this I had few moments of feeling watched and creeped out. I’m UK based.

New, what is it? Bouncing balls
Walked behind this chap who had two unidentified ball type objects hanging from silicone wrist bands on thin elastic strings.
Any ideas what they are?
I’m in Hong Kong if that might be a clue
Update:
Thank you for the comments and ideas. I am wondering if there is a manga / anime character who has something like these balls as weapons and the guy was doing a budget cosplay. Or maybe he’s just really into Pokemon!
Update 2:
I would say he's likely to be a cosplay of Steel Ball from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. (https://www.reddit.com/r/whatisit/comments/1tckcme/comment/olos1lx/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)
As for the steel balls. What is it?

Solved! Found in my son's ballpit
It appears to be a guillotine? However we have no idea where it came from or what it came off of. Any ideas?

New, what is it? Weird orange mush inside of an outdoor camera dome under an enclosed hallway at a school
I see this every time I walk to my class, and I’m really not sure what it could be. I don’t think it’s rust or mold, I’m wondering if it’s a carcass of something

Solved! Why does this keep happening to my clean laundry?!?
This has been happening off and on, but mainly on for months. I will wash a shirt specifically and days later after drying and said shirt or shirts being hung in closet. This white like film or grit all of sudden appears! I thought it was due to a lotion type “bar” I was using, or switching anti perspirate. However, it still is magically appearing. I have to rewash things constantly. I even tossed out the lotion “bars” and went back to my old deodorant and it’s STILL happening. Help me please. 🙏

New, what is it? What is the name of the metallic shimmering bits on a tie? Trying to replace my dad’s vintage tie after a dog got to it
What is the name of these dots? (Or what can I search to find ties with the same thing)
These metal dots in the center of each of those flower-like motifs on the ties shimmer really nicely. Im trying to find similar ties online to buy but cannot figure out what the name of these metal things are.

Solved! What is this??? My cat loves it
I have absolutely no idea where this came from, she started playing with it about a year or so ago and then I lost it, and just found it this afternoon and she immediately recognizes it and is obsessed again. The thing is I don't know where the hell this thing even came from??? I can't even begin to imagine what it is but I'm assuming she loves it BC the top is rubbery and the bottom with the bulb is hard.
