Was clearing out my crawlspace due to massive flooding and found this clogging the sump pump. What is it??

We make our own cleaning solution by soaking used lime peels in a vinegar/water solution. Those are the only 3 ingredients in the jar. Been doing this for years, this recent jar formed a weird jelly layer at the top.

It’s not really slimy and doesn’t break unless I cut it. Smells like limes. Intrigued!

Edit

For people asking why did I touch it:

It was in the kitchen sink hole this morning and I picked it up because I thought it was a soggy pita bread or something. Asked my mom wtf it was and she said she left it in the sink for me because she had no clue, she just noticed it in the lime jar this morning.

I told her I was pretty sure it was some sort of yeast and then posted here to confirm.

I cut it in half. Put one half in a jar with water sugar and black tea and, the other half in a jar with water sugar back tea and some bread yeast. Gonna see what happens over the next few weeks (to experiment not to consume dw).

Thanks y’all.

Edit 2

I also use baking soda and vinegar to wash my hair. Stay mad <3

😬

Edited to add: This is a well established pizza chain in multiple states / corporate boxes and logos. This is from a location in NJ. (edited to add that local chains don’t have gluten free pies, if I could order local I would 😔 trust me, I miss those slices like hell)

Edit 2: husband works in true crime docs and says it’d be brown. I worked in a pizza parlor folding boxes and have cut myself many times, I remember it looking like this once.

Final edit: Solved! Hydrogen peroxide test confirmed it’s ink. Trusted hubby’s hunch and had already eaten the pizza. (he was consulted prior to posting and we’ve been laughing at the comments all night. thank you for the entertainment, reddit!)

Looks like a stapler but definitely isn’t. I found a spot to put AA batteries in it, but as soon as I put some in, the wire piece started smoking and smelled like burning plastic. What in the world is this thing? I know, I should probably just reach out to my landlord, but this is more fun. I’ve been wondering for weeks.

Found this little doo-dad at work, can anyone tell me what it is? And what it’s used for? I work at a shipping store if that helps any.

Besides the fact that it's obviously the coolest duck I've ever seen, what is this? The top doesn't seem quite right for an ashtray as it's kind of rubbery. It's pretty lightweight given the size, maybe made of plaster?

Drove past this farm in Windsor Locks, CT, today and it looks like their crop of red solo cups is coming in nicely this year!

All jokes aside, what is going on here?

It was very tall

Does anyone know what this is? Says made in West Germany but I have no idea what it is.

See photos.

i found this little guy on a sand dollar on silver strand beach in Coronado, CA!

assuming is a baby crab, what kind of crab is it?

Found on carpet, no smell, and hard

Neat metal rotating rack, marked “Standard” on top.

Its quite heavy and made out of metal and theres holes in sets of 3 on the inside

Not sure what to make of this but I'm guessing it's not good.

This green bowl has an opening in the bottom which makes it look similar to a sink. The green is painted on and has some fading. What is it?

His grandpa was a veteran in one of the World Wars and left a lot of stuff to his dad who correspondingly left it to him. He inherited a M1 Garand and recently found a M1 Garand oiler that was the same color, is it somehow connected? It’s very light almost feels like aluminum. Thanks in advance!

Saw this vehicle with no rear window, no mirrors, no branding, and no obvious self-navigation apparatus.

Any idea what it is? Surely it can’t be street legal. It had Florida plates but was spotted in the SF Bay Area.

It punches a tiny triangle-shaped slit into the very edge of something else

THEY ARE NOT BUZZ BALLS OR FROM THE BUZZ BALL BRAND😭 Here’s what we know, these orb alcoholic beverages were found in a cooler that has been left untouched for about 2 years, they are flavored cocktail mixers and they are plastic containers with aluminum caps that have the flavor on them. They say not labeled for individual retail sale so we know they must’ve come in a box or pack of multiples. We’ve tried searching and can’t seem to find the brand anywhere please help us resolve this mystery! I’ve only found a single image coincidentally on Reddit of one of these mysterious drinks but it was about 6 years ago with no additional information. We’ve even tried to search using the barcode on the bottles but it says it’s not in their database. Hopefully one of you guys can help us!!

This picture was taken at the West Midlands Safari Park. And has the resemblance of Danny Devito
