It's time to talk about the elephant in the room...

(It's #HootinTootinTuesday again! Post some jokes or funny memes under this hashtag today, and bring lots of smiles to #Mastodon.)

A Gary Larson "Far Side" comic dated January 7, 1984. A man and wife are standing in a room that has been ransacked, apparently while they have been looking for something. Boxes are open, tables are overturned, a lampshade is askew, drawers are open, and socks are hanging out of the open drawer.

Behind the chest of drawers, the top and sides of an elephant are visible.

The woman has her hands to her face. The man says, "Now calm down, Barbara. We haven't ... looked everywhere yet, and an elephant can't hide in here forever."

I walk among the dead.

Well F***

Ich habe im Schwimmbad meinen liebsten (und einzigen) Ring verloren 😢😰

Ich hatte ihn damals von einem Mittelalterlichen Spektakulum...
Ich frage so schnell es geht an, ob das Schwimmbad ihn finden kann. Aber wie beschreibe ich ihn...?

Good morning. 🍄🍄🍄

3 May 2025

I bought some white PVC patches to fix the holes in our fence—two different kinds at two different times. And now? I can't find either one. Over a week ago, I went on a full-blown search, only to come up empty-handed. Eventually, I gave up, figuring that if I just waited, I’d stumble across them sooner or later. But so far? Not a.

Where do lost things go? Do they fade into some mysterious void after a certain amount of time? It’s strange how often I tuck something away in a “safe spot” only to completely forget where that obvious place was. Maybe it’s not the objects disappearing into the void—maybe it’s my memory.

If I ever do find them, I’ll probably just think, “Oh, yeah.” Until then, maybe I’ll do what I did last time and just reorder.

Nature’s Little Tower

"This image captures a close-up of a mushroom from a low angle, emphasizing the delicate gills beneath its cap and the textured stem anchoring it to the forest floor. The cap is light brown, with intricate, layered gills visible underneath. The mushroom stands tall amid green grass and foliage, with a softly blurred background of leaves and trees, suggesting a natural woodland setting. The perspective highlights the beauty of fungi in their environment, making the mushroom appear almost majestic." - Copilot

I own about a bajillion of each yet can never - well hardly ever - find any when I need one !

Outside the front door of a house are two cuddly toys - a white tiger looking down at its paws, and a much smaller yellow dog the other side of the door looking at the tiger.

An collection of forgotten things - a German postbox that's two steps from becoming overgrown, an obsolete public telephone that no one has used for years, and, in the background, a wooden agricultural trailer with a 25km/h sign, likely no longer roadworthy.

This guy, let's call him Peter, is just hanging out by the golf course looking all lost and lonely. Poor little Peter. Where are your people?

So I walked past Fast Eddies Perth restaurant today probably for the first time since I last dined there. They closed in May 2019 well before the Covid lockdowns that probably would have finished them anyway.
I peered through the glass and saw that everything was still in place all the fixtures and fittings, menus in the racks, napkins of the counter. Even the Fast Eddies stained glass window was still there.
I used to be a regular when I worked at WA Newspapers in the 80s. On night shift I would go there at 3am for my "lunch" my favourite at that time was their chilli bowl.
Later we would still go when we wanted an out of normal hours meal or a special Sunday morning breakfast.

Good morning, friends. 🪷🪷🪷

12 October 2024

I was looking in the silver ware drawer this morning. We actually don't have "silverware" it just the place where we keep our knives, spoons, forks, and things like that. We have a set of multicolored chopsticks that we use when we order Chinese or Japanese food. Particularly, with noodles and sushi. Neither one of us are handy enough to handle rice with chop sticks. Sticky rice makes it easier though. Anyway, back on point, one blue chopstick is missing. Now I'm wondering what happened to the blue chopstick. Did it get sucked into the same vortex as missing socks. Should I take a picture of the remaining blue chopstick and put up posters around town?

"The image is of vibrant red flowers densely packed together, each with dark centers, surrounded by lush green leaves. The dark background really makes the colors pop. The image is signed "© Swede's Photographs" in the bottom left corner. The contrast between the vivid red petals and green foliage is particularly striking." - Copilot

The flowers in the photograph are garden mums (Chrysanthemum × morifolium).

I come across lost/abandoned #keys surprisingly often. But only twice have I seen lost #locks.
One was on the stairs into Old Street #LondonUnderground station, the other in either a long removed train cutting, or a dry tributary of the Burnt Oak Brook. (Or both!)

Half of a pair of glasses - the glass, frame and arm from one side - lies on muddy ground with grass and stones around.

Well, I've run across a number of #LostThings here in Brussels in the past 6 weeks or so. I'd been starting to think that people here pay such close attention to their stuff, but maybe not. Anyway, here's today's lost thing, spotted at Place Flagey this morning. More #LostThings to come...

A small child's boot, just the one, on the flagstones next to a red wooden bench.

I don't go into the office, but I get emails intended for people who do, many of whom seem to have lost something.

I can’t find my dustpan and brush anywhere. Not in usual places, looked in unusual places too. Checked recycling bin.
I was going to watch a film, but it’s bugging me 😩
