    Bought something and these happened to come with it. My only guess was that they go over a small light bulb? They seem to be meant to slide over something. 6E056B95-07EF-474B-AC77-15F9C9F3A868.jpeg

    I know, I know. Easy over there! I worked on trail crew as a young man. We built new sections of trail and bridges and whatnot down in FL. Hard work. Mostly a bunch of hippies and partying folk on my crew. One guy was ultra straight laced, god fearing, med student from TX. He hit the Michelob a little hard one night and started cracking up telling us this naughty story. He was going through his dads drawer as a kid and found his ma had crocheted his pa a pole and marble warmer. Recalling this brings a smirk to my mind each and every time it happens. This would be the aristocratic yet not so warm version you’re tryin to say?

    I'd be wondering if those weren't parts from fan pulls or similar. A little small for pole and marble regalia. (right guys?) Look like they'd hurt, too.

    Believe it or not I believe those go over bulbs for electric candles to make the light more realistic????

    Didn’t you see that episode of Seinfeld where George went swimming while they were out on Long Island?! ;)

    Ah bezoinga!! Thanks. I didn’t know about that feature actually. Sounds useful! I mean I know reverse image searches exist I just never use them. That one sounds so easy that I’ll use it
