Comment on Y'all ever have intrusive thoughts about accidentally dropping stuff in storm drains? (particulary when you have your phone out) And like if that happens, wtf is someone supposed to do?

  It was in California, which gets very little rain, so the drain was clean. Thankfully it wasn’t that deep either, about 6 feet down. If it had been in a city with active waste going down the drain, I would have left it down there. I got into the bad habit of leaving my phone on my lap in the car. When I got out of the passenger seat, it fell on the grate and slowly slid through the cracks, I just missed catching it before it fell in.

  I am very careful about always knowing where my phone is placed now.
