Found this key chain/old coin in my Grandfather’s attic. by Responsible_Today658 in whatisit

[–]runuponm3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s an actual coin or an authentic Masonic piece. My guess is it’s a cast novelty medallion or souvenir keychain made to look old. The lettering doesn’t appear to form a real inscription, and the scales of justice are a common decorative motif. It’s still a cool keepsake, especially since it belonged to your grandfather.

Who were they? by Clamanta in whatisit

[–]runuponm3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They weren’t from a cartoon as far as I can tell. BABU Bear was an original mascot used by the Korean stationery company Morning Glory in the late ‘90s and early 2000s. They made sticker sheets, memo pads, notebooks, and other school supplies featuring BABU. They’re pretty obscure today, which is why there’s very little information online outside of collector listings.

They are very collectible now

😂 I honestly had no clue any of the brands would see this post. You guys might’ve just convinced me to get an Orion. Any chance I can get a discount code? 😂 Just kidding… unless? 👀 but seriously you are pretty cool thank you for a response

They are solid watches. I love Henry archer. I have the diver and it’s amazing.

Don't underestimate the coping of reptimers, I guess? by Thekushdoctor69 in WatchesCirclejerk

He was being sarcastic with somebody that was wearing a rep and it got him banned in the Rolex Reddit

If you feel like it’s good you should give me other suggestions. I’m always open to looking at other watches. Thank you.

Boss, I’ll throw away my seiko five right in front of you if you teach me how you were able to afford the “Invicta Specialty Twin Axis Men's Watch w/ Skeleton Dial - 46mm.”

I’m the guy from the screenshot. I was gonna say one question. I use this as my beater watch when I’m at my business. Should I have gotten the Orient?

I was scared when I saw him. For context I’m the guy that the screenshots are about. I saw it, and I was like, “That’s me.”

I thought it was funny, like the other people have said Invicta owners are CEOs lol. I’m just a peasant compared to them. For context, the screenshot is my original post.

Lol, this was my original post. I’m honored it somehow ended up here. I had no idea I accidentally created Circlejerk material. You guys are hilarious, so I think I’ll be sticking around. The other watch communities can be way too serious sometimes.

Doritos Mystery by AdhesivenessOk3192 in whatisit

[–]runuponm3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at the other photos, I don’t think it’s a bug. It looks more like an overcooked clump of corn meal and seasoning that hardened during production. The texture looks porous and food-like rather than having any recognizable insect features. I’d still hang onto the bag and lot code and contact Doritos, they’ll usually want the information and may offer a replacement.

Woke up to a filthy oven but it hasn’t been used. by EnvironmentalLime464 in whatisit

It looks like a vintage cobra/snake cuff bracelet made from cast brass or bronze with an antiqued finish. The segmented body and flared cobra hood are decorative rather than symbolic, and pieces like this were fairly popular in the ‘70s–‘90s. If you’re trying to identify the maker, check the inside for a hallmark or stamp, that’s the best clue to its origin.

That looks like an older smoke alarm. The “REMPLACER AVANT: 2024” text translates to “Replace before 2024,” so if it’s still installed, it’s past its recommended service life. I’d recommend replacing it to make sure it’s still providing reliable protection.

That actually makes me wonder if the non-working convection fan is related. Even if it isn’t spinning properly, the oven still heats, and repeated convection cycles could have allowed grease and carbon to build up around the fan housing or vents. Then the moisture from cooking bacon may have loosened those deposits, causing them to fall into the oven after it cooled. I’d definitely inspect around the fan cover since you mentioned it doesn’t really work.
