Maybe this was one of those objects you don’t ask about unless you’re fully prepared for an awkward explanation.
So I did what many confused people would probably do in the same situation.
I picked it up.
Turned it over a few times.
Examined it from every angle.
Pretended I understood exactly what I was looking at.
Then quietly placed it back in the exact spot where I had found it.
But the mystery stayed with me.
What was this thing?
