Yea, its not that, too thick/square, handle too small, etc. You'd never get a plug in with it (I've done thousands of them - tires are really tough). But I get how it looks like a plug tool.

Looks like some kind of levering tool.

As an aside, check out the screw-type tire plugs available today (basically a plastic #8 screw with glue on it). Way easier than the traditional plugs and work just as well.

No, it's not that.

tire plug? what are they doing with those pretzels. patch? stem? i am so confused. i need more pretzels

i am growing to hate ai. it's not bringing me enough pretzels

"When cut, it did emit some red fluid, and the object moved and made a lot of noise - perhaps some sort of hydraulic mechanism? The shavings don't melt, so it's probably not plastic."

Bahaha - reading this and taking a drink - bad combo, almost out the nose.

"What is this thing? It's made of flesh and bone. It feels soft and shaves off easily with a knife, until you get to the middle and then it is much harder and cutting it requires a hacksaw. And the shavings don't melt, but taste similar to pork. It keeps screaming its name is "Sharon McMillan". Can anyone ID?"

"Oops, found its Drivers License. Turns out its name was in fact "Sharon McMillan." I feel silly now, but mystery solved!"

This comment got me good 😂
