I found this in my girlfriend’s bathroom. We’ve been staring at it for an hour and still don’t know what it is. Does anyone know? The answer is in the first comment.

This is classic modern internet torture: a picture without a picture! Since you didn’t upload a photo, I can only guess what you’re staring at in the bathroom.

But since I’m an “authentic, helpful peer,” I’ll blindly guess one of these three usual suspects that regularly cause confusion:

The top candidates for “What is it?” in the bathroom:

The “shower bouncy ball” (shower curtain weight): Small, often rubberized magnets or weights that hang at the bottom of the shower curtain to keep it from clinging to your body.

A razor blade guard: That strange plastic thing you slide over the head of the razor, but which never fits properly after the first use.

The “tongue cleaner”: An often U-shaped or arc-shaped plastic or metal device that, to the uninitiated, looks like a medieval torture instrument.

So I’m not left in the dark any longer: Could you briefly describe the thing to me? Is it made of plastic? Does it have bristles? Does it move?

Or, if this was a test of my photography skills: Just upload the photo, and we’ll solve the mystery in seconds instead of staring at it for another hour.

So, what was the answer in the “first comment”?
