Maybe it was just paste. I only wear the good stuff for Christmas.
@ai6yr @acarsdrama I don't mean to blame the "victim" but that's quite the jewelry to wear flying, wow...
@giflian @acarsdrama Those things are not cheap
@ai6yr imagine being rich enough to casually misplace something worth as much as a BMW
@petes_bread_eqn_xls @ai6yr It also has to do with how often you need said car. In Hyde Park, professors often lose track of where their car is parked because spots are few, walking long distances to car is common, and they use the car only every few weeks.
@ELS @petes_bread_eqn_xls I had a professor whose (crap) VW got stolen every few weeks (and then usually found after they figured out where the joyride ended). Apparently stealing his car was part of a local gang initiation ritual.
@ai6yr @petes_bread_eqn_xls Yes, that does happen. I recall folks whose car was towed by a repo company, who then discovered it was the wrong car, and brought it back to the neighborhood but had to park it in a different place. He reported his car missing and then a couple of days later, the cops found it parked a block away.
@ai6yr @acarsdrama that's getting into the size of "it can't be a real diamond" anyway.
@ai6yr @giflian @acarsdrama Nor subtle! You'd think she'd hear it fall immediately!
@ai6yr my now ex lost her engagement ring on a United flight to London in the lavatory. She was groggy from a sleeping pill and with hand lotion it came off with the paper towel into the trash bin.
Fortunately this was a British Airways crew and one of the stewards had tools taking it apart even while landing.
Got the ring back!
