15 Weird Things Whose Mystery Would’ve Been Impossible to Solve Without the Internet’s Help

In our childhood, we used to ask our parents hundreds of questions and we’d get really upset when they didn’t know the answers. And now we just throw our hands up in the air helplessly when our children bombard us with questions. Because it’s impossible to know everything, and this article just proves it.

At Now I’ve Seen Everything, we prepared a quiz for you. Let’s check to see whether you can figure out what any of these things are.

1. Who is this cup intended for?

3. “What is the purpose of these mirrors? I came across them in Trosa, Sweden.”

In Sweden, they are called Skvallerspegel, which can be translated as “gossip mirror,” and in the Netherlands, they are called Spionnetje meaning “a little spy.” This mirror lets you view the street from the comfort of your couch. They can be found in many countries in Northern Europe.

4. Why are there water bottles outside all the driveways and entrances in Spain?

This way, people try to prevent stray dogs and cats from peeing on their walls. This method really works, but no one knows how exactly. Perhaps animals don’t want to go to the toilet in a place where they can drink. Another possible reason is that they see their own reflection in the bottles, which scares them.
