    Worst thing that ever happened regarding key displacement: Had a complicated day planned with my GF, both basically rushing off in opposite directions and doing our things. She forgot something though and rushed back in. When trying to leave again just about 10 seconds later, she couldn’t find the key she just used!

    We were both searching, no success. Had to make the day work with just one key for both of us. The key was found weeks later in the middle under the bed, covered by other things and dust.

    Best theory: They fell on the tip of her shoe while she was walking and got catapulted, kept sliding under things that were already there. But we’ll never know.

    The bowl may be moved 3 inches to the left. It’s amazing how often that’s rendered something effectively invisible for me. I think I could be holding the bowl and not know where it is.

      I’ve done this with my phone. I was using my phone to purchase something for my phone. I needed some info about my phone to finalize the purchase, so I put my phone down to look for my phone. I then got frustrated when I couldn’t find it anywhere in the house, so I gave up and went to go save the purchase for later when I saw my phone laying right where I left it to go look for it. 🤡

          My mom does this. Can’t count how many times I’ve been looking for something only to be told by her “I didn’t touch it. I never touch your stuff. You must have lost it.” Only for 3 hours later her to find it and go “Oh right, I moved it here so it’d be easier for you to find it.”

    He’s already outside. So there never was a door. And the bowl and keys are just figments of his imagination.
