Got any domestic mysteries?

How do spoons always find their way down the kitchen sink just before I turn on the disposer? I’ve dented several spoons that way, from the disposer blades.

One with my tool box the phillips and slot screw drivers would sorta hide each other, you want a slot screw driver and all you can find is a phillips head, a minute later you need a phillips and you think no problem and all that is in the drawer is slots, HOW DO THEY DO THAT?

Probably the most notorious mystery in Demosthenes family lore is the loss of my brother’s teddy bear in 1999. We remember the bear sitting on the kitchen counter on September 7 of that year (we remember the date because it’s my dad’s birthday) and we remember my brother looking for the bear the next day and being unable to find it. 25 years later and the bear has never been found. It became a running thing in my family any time we’d go through old, dusty boxes that hadn’t been touched in years (in the attic or the garage, for example), and say things like “oh, we’re going to find that bear this time” but it never happened (and the house has since been through a great deal of renovation). So either the bear was somehow accidentally thrown away or it’s still at my parents’ house somewhere. The mystery remains unsolved and probably always will be.

I found a large box in my attic recently full of black wires, cables, electric plugs, antique phones and multitudes of adaptors. None of it is compatible with anything we use here on Planet Earth. I would send it back to whatever alternate universe it belongs in but I don’t know how.

Same mystery I asked about here in Fluther weeks ago. The several Gap shirts I bought from the Gap store all ended up getting several tiny holes on their front lower section. Holes that had gotten bigger with every wash. My other much,
much older t-shirts never got those kind of holes on them. First time I saw this mystery happened. Tis all true, no fabrication whatsoever.

Hair ties. Mine always disappear and you could blame my cats for 75% of them but what about the remaining 25%?

On a side note I recently read about a person who left peanuts for crows and the crows returned hair ties as gifts.

Is there some supernatural hair tie thing I’m not aware of?

I recently noticed most of my kitchen towels have disappeared. I use to have over a dozen and now only 5.

Why did my night time almost
fainting spells, and painful I.B.S. gas pains come back after a year of no symptoms.

Is it something that I ate? Like milk or grapes?

I have the same issue as @jonsblond. Hair ties and scrunchies just up and walk away. Or is there a scrunchie gremlin stealing them? It’s a mystery.

My incredible disappearing wedding band. It regularly gets “lost” but then magically reappears in a drawer, in the pocket of a pair of pants, in my car’s cup holder. Usually only for a few weeks but one time it was gone for a year. Eventually found it wrapped in a folded bed sheet.

Another one that seems to be a mystery for me is the magical winter coat. When I put on my winter coat, I typically find money in the pocket. I recently discovered it has passed this trick on to a pair of shorts I own. I wish I could remember where I bought these magical garments.

Last Thanksgiving, my grand niece sent me a Snapchat invite.
I check my email inbox, spam, and trash folders daily, but I never saw it.

Several years ago, I concocted a folder I named Psychotic Idiocy.
About a month ago, I browsed it just for my own amusement, and that’s when I finally saw the invitation.

I don’t have any filters directing any emails to that folder, so I have no idea how it got there.
