What is this, and should I be worried?
Hello Reddit,
I've taken my inquiry here because I am extremely confused as to what I've found in front of my door.
I opened my front door a few minutes past midnight to go to a 24/7 store to buy a snack. I look down at my feet and see this thing right in front of me on the floor. I can tell that this thing is wet as it has stained the carpet underneath it.
And before you ask, it is not feces.
What is this? Why is it here? Should I be worried?
Edit: Thank you to everyone who helped me understand wtf this 'thing' could have been.
I went to sleep a few hours after initially posting. When I woke up, it was nowhere to be seen. I told the building manager about the 'thing', and she seemed just as confused as I was. Typical of my luck, the security cameras throughout the building don't cover my section of the hallway, so there's no telling who placed it there.
From what I can now tell, this 'thing' is comprised of a match stick, 2 rubber bands, and a piece of cloth saturated in something.
