@Heliograph if I buy a new one, and go to put it away, I will surely find the lost one.
@ccellis
Just *pretend* you have a new one, you'll find the old one while putting the pretend one away. Or it's under something, or in the car.

@rjblaskiewicz True. But then how could you be here to tell the story of that random fridge? My bet is somebody is out to get you

@Heliograph I am currently waiting for Amazon to deliver a replacement for a thing I've lost. I expect the original will turn up moments after the Amazon delivery

UPDATE: I found the lost item before Amazon arrived. Panic over. -

This chart is a lie. It is missing the "Carlessly set down and covered with something else in some random corner (I know exactly where it is even years later)".

@Heliograph whenever a thing disappears for me, it's because I put it somewhere I couldn't possibly forget about it

@Heliograph can't forget the classic "i'm holding it"

@Heliograph The third option is "exactly where it is supposed to be" which does nothing to explain why you can't find it there.
