      You think you saw it there, but once you move the thing you learn it’s actually a thumbtack. The screw fell into a vent instead, and will occasionally rattle around to taunt you.

      I dropped a screw once and found it in another room. Both the room I was in and the room it ended up in had its doors closed.

      I mean there is a big enough gap for the screw to roll under so to the screw there is no door but it was still unexpected.

        Ok I have to confess. I remembered more about the incident and it wasn’t a screw. I was putting together a gunpla (plastic Gundam model) and it was one of the pieces.
