Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for May 28, 2019

Millennials shouldn’t be that old, yet.

Oh the horror!

I’ve heard true stories like this.

I’ve looked around for something and it was in my hand!!

Well, it could be his other phone that he’s forgotten.

I once fell for the classic where I received a text from my friend saying she couldn’t find her phone and asked if she had left it with me. It didn’t sink in until after I sent her the text saying “sorry, can’t find it”.

Aw, this has happened to me several times, and I’M not stupid! …why are you all looking away uncomfortably?

After waking up from a nap, I looked for my glasses; they were on my face.

I always do a “pat down check” when I get up from an airline seat or restaurant seat to make sure I have the appropriate lumps in my clothing. I always get that sinking feeling when the car is in the shop and my car keys are missing.

Don’t ask me! I have no idea where in the world you could have left it. (:

Don’t panic, just use your search app to find it.

My wife did that once while she was driving. She started to panic search her purse and pockets , I asked her what was she looking for. “My keys! I think I left my keys at the house!” I stared at her, and pointed to the cars ignition where , of course, her keys were dangling.

“Can you call me and I’ll see if I can hear it ring?”

Thank Dog I haven’t done that…

yet

Looking for my glasses only to find them on my head….and other comical adventures of the hurried and rushed…..

Walk through a door, you’ll forget what you’re looking for.

Me. Like last week, I was holding my phone and I forgot I had my phone in my hand. XD

Just follow the cord to your landline. If you hit a wall, follow in the other direction.

I’ll call you back as soon as I find it!

I’ll comment on this strip as soon as I can figure out where I left my laptop.

I was looking for my gloves for church . Looked a long time, then realized they were on my hands. Sigh.

I’ve lost my phone in my pocket berfore….

This isn’t THAT stupid. So people also have a leash – er – phone for business.

Keys, pens, phone, etc. Done that exact thing many times.

My daughter and her friend did this. Neither of them could find their phone. Out of sight…

Yeah. Listening to music on my phone in the car and panicking that I left my phone at home on the counter because it isn’t in a pocket or the purse.

Hon, where are my glasses? They are on your head sweetheart. Where’s my mind? Sorry, hon, I have no clue there.
