It won't be the longest time compared to others that commented here, nor will it be the funniest one, but it ought to be the stupidest thing one has searched for.

I spend the last couple months searching for a 1$ notebook (without any important or precious notes in it) plus the 0.50$ crystal Bic pen that accompanied it.

I don't care about these two but I also cannot understand how/where/when I lost them. It just makes no sense. So, for the last two months I've been searching everywhere, which also means searching every single one of the many streets I could have walked by (I try to go everywhere I can walking).

And, yep, I am still searching today. Maybe not as actively but I still am. And that still drives me crazy to not know what happened to them :p

On the other hand, around the same time I also lost a portable Samsung SSD drive that was worth a couple hundred. But this one I barely searched for it as I was almost certain I had mistakenly put it in bag of stuff I gave away to a charity (yep, the drive was encrypted, like all my other drives) ;)
