Mysteriously Displaced

 Below we see two photos of the same spot of my TV stand. The photos were taken about two hours apart on June 2, 2026. Both show a wooden comb on the right. The top photo is the earlier photo, and it shows a blue rubber band on the left. That rubber band is not seen in the lower photo, taken about two hours later. 


What is very strange is that I have no memory of doing anything to move the blue rubber band shown in the top photo. Instead, I was surprised this evening (June 2)  to see that blue rubber band on the middle of the floor, about two meters away from the spot shown above. This is the latest in a set of more than 33 mysterious observations I have made of rubber bands, which almost always involve me suddenly noticing a rubber band on the floor, while having no explanation of how it got there. 

My long-standing policy is to immediately pick up from the floor any small objects such as rubber bands, coins and pens, as soon as I see them. So how could the rubber band have got to the position I saw it at tonight, in the middle of the floor? No windows in the room were open, no fan was running, and no one else was in the room. Once again, I am baffled. I have now seen an effect like this more than 33 times. You can read about other baffling occurrences of this effect in my series of posts here.
