Husband: “Honey, have you seen a black plastic bracket lying around? It’s about yay long and has two prongs on one side and a hole on the other.”
Wife: “Yes, it was on the floor in the den.”
Husband (relieved): “Thank goodness! I’m so glad you found it. You can’t buy that piece, you have to buy the whole assembly and that would cost us a fortune. Where is it? Did you put it on my desk?”
Wife: “I didn’t know what it was so I threw it away.”
What is your point? Are you looking for those with memory loss? Hoarder vs tosser? Angry wife tired of crap laying around with husband with no sense of where he puts things??

No.
My wife asks me what things are before doing something with them.
And I try not to have random crap strewn about. Especially if it is something important.

Well in this case it wasn't misplaced, it fell off and I didn't know it.
I have lots of stuff like that that I find and can't figure out where it came from. I put it in a drawer thinking I will figure it out later. But after 20 years of living in the same house, it has just accumulated. Maybe when I get around to decluttering and before selling the house, I will find a use for some of it.
I have a couple of plastic doohickies that I can't figure out. I keep thinking that some day I'll find what they fell off of. Meanwhile they live in the junk drawer.
This is my mother-in-law to a "T". We lived with her for several years, this drove me NUTS!
