The Case of the Vanishing USB

I plugged in my USB, but it’s not showing up. Is it shy? Scared? Or did it join a circus? Any tips before I declare it lost to the void?

- Your USB didn’t vanish. It just went to USB heaven, where all lost peripherals play Tetris.

  RIP to my projects. They didn’t even get a proper goodbye.

    Did you hold a funeral? Or at least make a eulogy? “Here lies USB Drive, taken too soon…”

- Did you check the back of your PC? Mine was plugged in there the whole time last week. Facepalm moment.

  I once found my USB in my pocket after blaming my cat for stealing it. My cat did not forgive me.

  At least you didn’t accidentally format the drive while searching for it. Ask me how I know this.

- Once, I found my USB inside a coffee mug. Don’t ask how it got there. I’m still not sure if it was sabotage or clumsiness.

  Coffee and USB drives don’t mix well. But at least your USB got a proper caffeine boost before its demise.
