Why My Phone Charger is My Arch Nemesis (And Other Tales of Technology)




The Case of the Vanishing Charger

We’ve all been there. That moment of dread when you reach for your phone charger, only to find an empty void where it should be. It’s as if the charger itself has sprouted legs and scurried off to join a secret society of missing belongings. Just me?

The other day, I swear I left my charger plugged in right next to my bed. I even remember giving it a reassuring pat before drifting off to sleep. But when I woke up, it was gone! Vanished! I tore apart my entire room, convinced it had somehow teleported into another dimension.

After a frantic 30-minute search (during which I may or may not have accused my dog of charger-napping), I finally located the culprit… tangled in the sheets at the foot of my bed. Of course. It’s like the charger equivalent of finding your keys in the refrigerator.
