«Wax in the keyhole of the mailbox. What is this for?”



This is probably lubricating wax or lithium grease to make the lock work better and not rust.

This is the top of the flagpole. And the round things — solar powered LEDs.

«Metal handle on the floor. Doesn't move"



A strange contraption was discovered in the dressing room of a shopping center where shoppers could try on clothes. This simple device helps prevent the mirror from breaking, since it does not allow you to drive the cart too close.

“Mysterious little green thing with a point in the middle”



It turns out that an ordinary glue cap can look so unusual. Yes, that's it!

This thing — a rubber dart from a form of darts. Only in this case, at the end of the dart there is not a needle, but Velcro.
