The Mystery of Where They Go

So, where do misplaced car keys go? Is there a black hole for car keys, or do they just have a secret life of their own? Speculation aside, here are some classic hiding places you might want to check:

• Under the Couch: It’s like a Bermuda Triangle of keys, snacks, and lost remote controls.
• In the Fridge: I've known people who put everything in their fridge. Why not your keys?
• In the Pocket of That random Jacket: You know, the one you only wear once a year?

Car Key Alternatives
