I adored your answers. Very informative and some were downright funny. Thank you.

If a cleaner finds a device like that in my home, they get an immediate raise in pay. They’re obviously doing a better than fantastic job!

I would be VERY worried about finding that voice recorder in my room. I would NOT be staying there until I had the place thoroughly checked out. That is very disturbing.

I am so old that I remember my sisters using slide rules at school! I also remember when calculators were invented! And then computers... Great video - thank you!

1:30 - Another reason why I don't pick anything up off the street. Unless it's green and has a picture of a dead president on it.

9:58 - Yet another thing that the youngest generation may have no idea about: Phone Books and Yellow Pages!

Those lights that tell you when a switch is on are very useful. We have one for our attic lights and one for the garage door so we know if it's down or not. It's awful realizing in the morning that the door didn't go down for some reason, usually because something broke the beam and it went back up after we were inside.

13:25 - not just training scissors, but _left-handed_ training scissors

Kind of worrying that a doctor didn’t know what an orchidometer was!

The thing about Slide Rules, is they don't require any electrical power, and with even a modest amount of practice, can be faster for complex calculations than a calculator. Again, with modest practice, accuracies of four decimal places are easily achievable. I still use my 1970's PIC 221 double-sided rule for quick calculations, and it "works" as well now as it did when I bought it (second-hand, mind you) in 1974, i.e. 50 years ago.

0:48 the dirty nail 💀

Fascinating!

@ 8:30 - ish:I've had them work for that, too, but what makes them "special" to me is that when they're large enough (and some jugs have two of them to make them, effectively, even larger, with more capacity) it lets you just toss the jug straight from the grocery bag into the freezer with no - as in zero - preparation or setup. Water-based liquids like milk expand (with great force - sort of an ultra-slow-motion explosion) when they freeze. Like when dropped, the divot(s) in the side of the jug pops out enough to prevent bursting the jug when you put it in the freezer "still sealed from the dairy" full. Without those divots, you need to open it up, pour off "some" - in my family, we used to do a cup or so out of each straight-sided jug that was going into the freezer - and recap it loosely (to let the air escape as the milk freezes and the air inside is compressed by the expansion) which means you have to find a way to put it in the freezer upright and reasonably level until it's actually frozen - something that isn't always easy when you've got a well-stuffed chest-style freezer rather than an upright - then come back later and tighten the cap and restack it in some other position if desired. With the divot(s), y'just pull it out of the grocery sack, find someplace it fits, close the freezer lid, and forget about it until it's time to pull it out and actually use it. Bonus fun-fact as your reward for reading this far: The "creases" in the bottom both stiffen the jug, and simultaneously provide some more capacity to relieve pressure, whether from being dropped, or from freezing, the same way the "main divots" in the sides do. 🤓🤓🤓🤓

Love these,!

these are fascinating videos - bingeing on them now that I've found them - very informative thank you - I'm an old biddy now so can guess some of the old stuff

This was FANTASTIC! Everything about it, even the music. I hope you have more. I'm saving to share AND for after we dig up our yard lol! Subbed as fast as I could. THANK YOU🙏🏼😃Have a glorious safe weekend and God bless you.

Want to know value of the Gibson

8:59 Nope. That's for holding a pony tail. My sister had a couple of them back in the late 60's

Uuhh, wenn Dein Taxifahrer beim Fahren beten muss, sollten seine Fahrgäste das wohl besser auch anfangen...🙃

Must say many of things, a normal person would know about - ie the elephant ice cube, but I also learned something new today

Very interesting. Thankyou! Really enjoyed the video. 👏✌️

What an interesting video! I actually did know what a few of the items were!

So many more W-O-Ws, some of which I knew the answer to!

Ahck! I have that slime mold thing growing up the side of my fern terrarium. I didn't know what it was. How exciting. I'll have to see if I can transfer it.

6:55 - I knew what the ‘beads’ that appear here and in the thumbnail were for before I watched the video, and was correct ! I don’t have a medical background though, so how did I know ? I was shown a set of these in 1991 and asked “Which size would you go for ?” and I replied “The biggest” ! I was born with Klinefelter’s Syndrome which gives the man chickpea-sized testicles. I also had 1 undescended testicle on the right side, which wasn’t corrected when I was a baby (despite my mother telling the nurses at the clinic that there was a problem). The docs tried to bring this down when I was 14 but were unsuccessful, so it was decided that I would wait until I finished puberty before they would remove it and put in a false one. Because of this, they were going to remove my left one too and I would have 2 fake testicles to make me look normal. In the end, the docs discovered that my left one was still producing a little testosterone, so they pinned it in an area where it won’t go cancerous, and popped in the full size fake one in its place ! So I went from having 1 ball to 3 balls ! At that time, Klinefelter’s affected 1 in 5000 men, but to have it and undescended testicles as an adult made me 1 in 10,000. Current ratio in U.K. is 1 in 1000 boys have it but most are unaware. There are an estimated 25,000 boys and men who have XXY (it is possible to have extra X’s or Y’s, but these are rarer still) in Britain alone. Therefore the ratio of those who have both XXY and Cryptorchidism, like me could be more or less the same - I can’t find this out !

So - some e found a s,ide rule? And did t know what it was! I’m feeling very old now!! My husband is a retired aerospace engineer who used to use one but I asked him once and he doesn’t even remember how to use it - hasn’t used one in perhaps over 50 years! I just find these items humorous!

I had , possibly still have? Some pink elephant reusable ice cubes. They never lasted long.

Apparently many Air-Bnb owners love recording your stay with them, but Air-Bnb have their arses covered in the terms & conditions part of the lease-agreement, so forget about suing that multinational!

Where does one post pics for answers on what is it?

I live on the east side of Mt Rainier, we see those same shadows in the sunset if the clouds are just right.

@13:38 GMC is all caps.

14:47 - I have something very similar but from the 1950’s/60’s - it is used for picking up ice cubes too !

We've bern keeping pur car keys in metal tins or fridge for years due to thief rumors.

Biology 101 in high school in 1962 - forgot about how worms procreate🥴🥴

Interesting.

I really like when a location of something is told as some of these items are not from the US - just curious. I’d love to have found a Megalodon tooth, even broken!!

The last two words in many of these answers needs to be “ya dummy”!

We used to have hundreds of bats, but since the trees were cut down and subdivisions built, the bats are gone.

The "pre-columbian object" is probably a knife. The Inuit in northern Canada use a similar-shaped knife to this day. Theirs aren't traditionally metal, so yeah if it's metal it would be Aztec or something (someone who mined and used metals). My curious brain mow asks if the knife design was shared via trade, or it it was invented independently ( just like lots of human inventions, got invented multiple times in multiple sites).

@ 09:30 Are those metal plates some kind of MAP or something for the man taking a journey? OH!!! You meant JOURNEYMAN! It is ne word, Robby.,

No 1, If they are showers, and I think thats a good guess, where are the drains?

Dog poop..😂😂😂😂

7:03 why? and how often? and adults or children?

5:15 Education really has gone downhill. They don’t even bother to teach kids about slide rules.

If I was using Uber I would have asked the question directly. Having been given the answer I would give them a large tip. They were probably praying that they won’t get insulted, abused or fare evaded.

0:52 please clean your finger nails!!!

This don’t even give you the time needed to read the captions. I’m out
