2020: Another Oddity.

Wildlife officials in Utah were in a remote area counting sheep from a helicopter when they discovered a shiny metal monolith that looks straight out of a Stanley Kubrick film.

It is estimated to be about 10 to 12 feet high, and its glistening surface is in sharp contrast to the large red rocks that surround it.

Wednesday’s discovery appears to have been firmly planted in the soil, and not dropped from above.

On Instagram, Utah’s highway patrol shared a picture of the bizarre finding with a caption reading: “Counting big horn sheep with DWR this week. During the counts we came across this, in the middle of nowhere, buried deep in the rock. Inquiring minds want to know, what the heck is it?

What do they mean "buried deep in the rock"? Do they mean it was actually buried underground, or that it was found "among the rocks" "deep" in the wilderness? If the former, how would they ever find it on a sheep-counting mission? Somehow I sniff a hoax.

The weaponozed autists at 4chan appear to have already found it.

It’s the only 10 Commandments monument that hasn’t yet been found by the atheists.

A giant sculpture commissioned by Mitt of his middle finger salute to the GOP and it’s leader President DJT?

It looks pristine. If it had actually been there in the wilderness for any length of time, it would be covered with dust and possibly some sort of plant growth. I smell a hoax.

It should be stored in a government warehouse in Area 51.

They were "counting sheep" when they saw this?

Hmmm.

Since there are fasteners spaced regularly around it, it is most likely hollow and therefore like enough to carry over rough ground, but not solid enough to drop from a great height or use to penetrate the ground. A component from an old piece of restaurant equipment, perhaps?

By buried they mean....it was placed there by human hands and likely there is some kind of foundation which proves it.

It’s a storage container for tons of Biden votes that weren’t needed.
