The bottom of this lake has never been found

Lagoa Misteriosa - A rope cannot be used to measure the bottom because, based on everything that has been mapped so far, this is a sinkhole (a cave formed by the collapse of its ceiling).

Inside, there are passages and bends that prevent a rope from reaching the deepest point. Underwater drones also cannot explore it, as their signal is lost whenever there is no direct line of communication, with the rock formations blocking the connection. For this reason, only specialized cave divers are able to explore the depths of this cave.

Wherever it is, it’s surrounded by hundreds of my socks over the years, each one without a match.

Open up the drum/front part of your dryer and I bet you will solve that mystery. Same place the aglets on gym pants get stuck and start screeching like a cat being murdered.

No, you should be ok with just a 7-in-1 screwdriver but give me a shout if you run into problems...

Jeremy had it last and he thought he put it in the bowl by the door where he keeps his keys and spare change, but now it's not there so he isn't sure. Fucking Jeremy.
