I love taking advantage of that whole "where's my phone" panic.

Say we go grab a beer after work. I'll take a picture of your phone when you go to the restroom, and then after you go home, I'll send you a text with the picture of your phone saying "you forgot your phone." People seem to forget they've received that text...on their phone.

Another one i did once was after meeting my gf for lunch, she had school and i had work. We're side-by-side at a red light, so i call her and ask if she knows where she put her phone. And i watched through the window as she proceeded her tear her car to ribbons as she can't find her phone in her car. My giggles are what gave the game away.

My wife forgot her phone the other day. I text her "hey, I found your phone" and then think a few minutes about why i should find better things to do

Me, 0.1 seconds into looking for my vape (it's in my hand):

seeing a post that I assumed was a 3 year old tweet that mentioned Lemmy by name just gave me whiplash

Also, it's a skeet.

Years ago when I was a late teen and living at my mother's, she was at work as a cashier. She called my one morning and this was the conversation : Mom - do me a favor, go into my bedroom my phone should be on the nightstand. Can you grab it and bring it to me?

Me - you're at work on break right?

Mom - yeah

Me - how are you calling me?

Mom - silence

Mom - nevermind, I have it....

Poor mom. I bet that was peri/meno brain fog. It sucks.

Reminds me of when I was working in construction. I'd keep a pencil behind my ear for marking things. One day I had finished marking things and I went to put my pencil back behind my ear, but there was already a pencil there. Not sure how that happened but lucky for me I have two ears.

What will you do when you find a third pencil

That one is for the buttcrack of any co-worker found bending over too far.

Start stockpiling them on his penisland.

Sounds like you stole your buddy's pen

It's like forgetting you had your glasses on and you went to find your glasses. I've seen people do this.

More than once, I've packed a bowl, only to need search and rescue to locate the suddenly missing lighter. That I'm clutching. In my hand...

[–] crawancon@lemm.ee 25 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

too much or not enough beans?

let's let you decide!

Give me that plant-based protein.

Like trying to find the pair of glasses you're currently wearing. Although glasses might be worse, cause eventually I'll realize my phone is already in my hand. Glasses not so much...

I did something like this once. I was talking to a buddy I the phone, and freaked out because I couldn’t find my phone to look something up.

I chalk it up to how ubiquitous the device itself is, and how little I use it as an actual phone.
