Not the worst that can happen. Job lost, dishes done.

I even encourage myself to do this, so at least SOMETHING gets done.

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.

Absolutely, but even worse is a slightly changed UI in an application or website. Or THE HORROR: Supermarket changed shelf of something.

I managed to solve that problem with a key chain that is tightly attached to my pants and so hard to remove that I think twice before washing my pants. Almost ran out with the wrong pair of pants a few times, but hey, that's it. Only 1 lockout in 20 years.

But everything else should have a locate feature like your phone. Around the mid 80s, there was a short lived trend: A keychain that answers when you whistle a specific sequence to it. What happened with that?

I do order a lot online, but I feel like it's actually well thought through and needed.

E. g. A teapod when the old one breaks, heads for my somewhat uncommon electric toothbrush, an electrically heated vest for grandma when she visits ... makes perfect sense, right?

My biggest problem though is that I need everything basically NOW, and I'm not in a big same-day city. Got to wait 1 - 2 days for most stuff 😢

Not to 1-up everybody, but I strongly suspected & brought the suspicion to a psychiatrist at age 43. He felt unable to to confirm, deny or somehow check.

At 46, finally a referral to a clinic by my GP, who believed it. No appointments available though, not even in the distant future.

1.5 years later, I'm in the process of getting checked, and it looks like I'll get a "yes" or "no" (very probably "yes") within a few months.

Obviously a dropout, too, but I managed to get a fraction of my potential due to an unexplained (to this day), 5 year lasting obsession with IT in my 20s, which caused me to study frantically day & night. Came and went, but a lot of it is still relevant.

In the past 20 years, I managed to land fat jobs over and over again, but like relationships and everything else, the fuss around the work itself gets "too much" and I quit after 6 - 18 months.

That weird 5 year study-frenzy was a blessing overall, but it also got me to think I was just an assclown before and after, rather than having a medical condition.
