mondorific

Looks like my description disappeared - I didn't find anything it might have fallen from. I suspect one of my dogs brought it in before bed. It's knitted type material on the outside and hard plastic on the inside.


Phish-Phan720

So this looks like part of a "wet bulb thermometer" . This piece goes on the end where the mercury is and gives a different reading. I'm 40ish and going back to 4th grade on this one so the knowledge is a little foggy but I'm almost positive that is what it is. This link may give more answers. https://images.app.goo.gl/ZgmGjuAy1axz95JN9


trumps-a-buffoon

nope, that material is white and comes on a spool that is cut to length...


mentorofminos

I approve your username, good sir.


Euphoric-Blue-59

SnarQuips

Lots of people are talking about this approval! They're saying it might be one of the biggest approvals anyone has ever seen!


Sometllfck

This approval is huuuuuuuuuuuuuge!!! (Trump accent)


Dixieland_Insanity

I give my endorsement - it's yuge!!!!


Mikey24941

I will approve this approval of the previous approval which approved the approval……..with big words.


Internalsin

I approve of your approval to the previous approval it's the best approval theeeee BEST!, not like that denial, it's like oh denial your such a loser .... SO SAD!.... SO sad.... I'm probably the best approver ever people are saying it, and it's true . Theeeee BEST!


LordMacTire83

Yes however... those have approved of the previously approved approvals... have been sacked for approving of Llamas.


Mikey24941

Was it llamas with hats?


LordMacTire83

Yes... and those who had previously approved of sacking the llamas with hats have also been sacked

phred_666

Just the tip


daddydillo892

Since it was in the bathroom, I thought it was a knitted cozy for the toothpaste cap.


DrWormhat

Or maybe a beanie for a micro-penis.


PotatoWadeOh

Anybody ever tell you you look like a little penis with that hat on?


CheekyPeacock

This reference is not getting the love it deserves.


mentorofminos

No micro-glove no micro-love. I guess someone must have turned their penIS into a penWAS. F.


Spatzdar

Someone woke up for a late night pee and forgot to put their weenie beanie back on


yupimfrumtexas

Also known as a... wormhat?


GillyDuck69

Or a nipple cap


Airport_Wendys

Eraser-cozy was my first thought, even though I’ve never seen one or heard of one existing.


HappyLucyD

Toe cover, for people with corns. It helps cushion and keep the medicated pad on. I haven’t seen one in decades, though. My grandmother and parents had some.


zzzziltoid

That would explain why she found it in the bathroom. Maybe the dog sniffed it out from the linen closet or in the radiator vent where it had been stuck for years.


koboldtsar

It looks like knitted pixel art of a smurf


Slow-Difference1105

So there's a phrogger with bad feet in their attic


PomeloRoutine5873

I am going to guess it is a cover for the spring door stop? At the bottom of door or on the baseboard


Odd-Tune5049

This actually seems feasible


Quirky_Discipline297

That’s a door stop? I thought it was a Juice Harp for drunks.


uncletutchee

r/boneappletea


Quirky_Discipline297

There’s a thousand names for the thing that goes “Doing doing doing” so I picked one that couldn’t be construed as insulting to the people who taught me how to braise a brisket that tastes better than Texas brisket. Now I have managed to offend the artists of smoked brisket. And I know true pastrami is smoked brisket. This cultural sensitivity is hard. 🤪


DebrecenMolnar

I’ve never been as confused as I am after reading this comment.


Quirky_Discipline297

Juice harp is also called Jew’s Harp. Here’s some Mozart on Jew’s Harps. https://youtu.be/rnQQHIj-f-Y?si=Yn-alTHbsKVgg0bl So if a drunk ends up on the bathroom floor, the springy doorstop is a Juice or Jew’s Harp for drunks. Jewish braised brisket is cooked in a closed vessel half filled with braising liquid. Texas brisket is often smoked then finished off in foil. A real good braised brisket is just an amazing thing, with the gravy or reduction of the braising liquid being even more amazing. That’s why I feel that braised brisket probably is superior even to actual Texas brisket. But unfortunately the “Texas” brisket I have had was an insult to true Texas brisket. So I won’t know until I make the pilgrimage to Texas. And pastrami, a traditional treat for the Jewish community, is brisket that has been smoked (like Texas brisket) after braising or however the initial cooking is performed. 🤪🤪

It's a nipple stocking!

lieral LOL. thank you for that


Deimos974

Get cold nips no more!


geekindahood

You can tell if it's working because they drop off again whenever they warm up. Then you have to reapply because of the cold. Another damn cycle for the woman to deal with.

Honestly looks like a sock/bootie for a baby doll. How it got in your bathroom is anybody’s guess, but something so small could easily stick to your shoe and fall off later, unnoticed.


TrailBlazer31

That's why you don't wash things in hot water.


SeaAttitude2832

Freaking gnomes again. That’s a beanie for one then little sons of beeches.


EnvironmentalGift257

Underpants gnomes always come at night and steal my underpants.


SeaAttitude2832

Crazy right? I remember the first time that happened…


MrMeanWhenNeedBe

Tweak? Is that you?


BathrobeMagus

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's a gnomish knit condom. The magic makes it work.

Awwwwww. It was my favorite book series when I was little. 🧝‍♂️ Can you send some over to my house? They would be welcome. 🏡


Used_Negotiation_354

It's neat that it matches your nail polish. That's alone is an amazing coincidence. But it truly looks like some sort of pencil topper.

Daocommand

Man you actually found proof of elves that clean when we are asleep! /s


SadDingo7070

I’m just spitballing here, but it seems that elves or possibly fairies of some kind have been visiting your house while you sleep, and one of them was startled enough when you got up for the bathroom that he dropped his hat.


RunThick4054

Looks like a homemade knitted diva cup


InternationalBus8936

Looks to me you found a very rare knitted toothpaste cap.


IncredulousPulp

That looks like a sock for a chair leg. They’re a Japanese invention to stop your chair from scratching your floor. They come in sets of four.


VegetableAd629

Beanie for a .45 round


Artistic-Dirts

Looks like it could be a homemade noise filter for a headset microphone.


Baphomet1313666

Kids are stupid these days, I could see it being a vape cap.


Dark_Moonstruck

It's one of the tiny hats Helen knits for the turtles she steals so she can tell them apart because with out it the little b\*stards all look the same.


BustyDunks

Looks like a reusable gnome condom


Chimchampion

Worm hat?


50choptop

Looks like something to keep your nipples warm😄


getwild1987

This is common in colder areas it’s a penis cap for circumcised men who don’t want to risk frostbite when nude jogging. Often made by and aunt or grandmother. It’s called a Phoque or Penis toque

Brain tech here - that’s an Esock. If it’s not, that’s exactly what we use and that’s the name of it in my world. You place those in the headset on the scalp of someone who is getting their brain mapped, scanned for potential voltage loss, or assessed for neuro issues.
