  • Why is it that whenever you drop something small, it always rolls away and comes to rest so it is hidden from view? Quite often these things are a totally un-rolly shape too. You could be stood at the back of a newly swept, empty, flood-lit garage and that errant 5mm bottle cage bolt will prescribe an invisible trajectory that no degree of speculation or algorithm could ever predict and come to rest under the single dried-up leaf that has just blown under the door 20ft behind you.

  • The day before yesterday I dropped a playmobil piece on a relatively uncluttered floor. It just disappeared. I looked absolutely everywhere it could have gone, but unfortunately I don’t have access to limbo or whichever hidden dimension it’s ended up in.

  • Took apart a Mac mini to install a second SSD, heard a ‘clink ... (roll)’ but I can’t actually see what’s missing and can’t find anything on the floor. I can’t put it back together until I know for sure : /
