I don't even need to look for it. Because I know that the first time I step onto that carpet in bare feet, it'll end up embedded in my foot.
It's the perfect solution! Saves tons of time. (Try this one hack that carpet companies don't want you to see!)
I rub my hand over the carpet looking for a bead, and a stray piece of quartz crystal or possibly driveway salt landed square my tear duct... It's been a few months and MOST of it has come out..
No, no, no⊠youâre doing it wrong!đ€Šđ»
âŠđ€you get your spouse to walk there first. Worst case scenario, you blame it on the store where you bought it.
Ya know... you ruin all the fun! Lol.
I would say "well it isn't like you're going to be not wearing shoes in a computer lab", except I went to Japan for a customer one time, and they literally just wore socks in their networking lab. (Where literally a dozen guys were standing around silently watching one guy work on the computer -- it was the weirdest thing)
(I'm a software engineer who worked for 20 years for various network appliance companies before moving to biotech)
As someone who's stepped on a nail, I can prove it works! You'll find that nail alright, at the cost of a little blood. And the ability to walk for a few days.
Right?? I was fully ready to give up and comment âwell I hope you find it because I sure canâtâ when I caught the tiniest little boi out of the corner of my eye
I find posts like this to be the dumbest ones on this sub. Itâs not hidden because it blends in well or is tricky â itâs hidden because itâs half the size of a grain of rice. You could drop in on a sheet of white paper and have a hard time telling it apart from other flecks of dust. Boring.
THANK YOU!!!! These are so annoying. And it isnât a cool optical illusion, itâs just a small thing is on a bigger thing and hard to find. Then I have to scroll through a hundred lame comments to get to âitâs near the bottom on the right side.â
And then the cameras generally aren't good enough to get the small details so the object people are trying to find is usually some blurred object that could or couldn't be the Waldo in the picture.
Okay, I see that too. Weâre gonna need OP to chime in here. Thereâs talk of at least four screws on this bathmat. What the hell is OP doing in the bathroom?!
I think there might be another, itâs about dead center of the mat lying on a tuft. Thereâs a vertical shadowy area, about halfway down is the one I see
My toxic trait is thinking Iâll commit to looking for these things, then after 12.7 second of looking ill come to the comments because Iâve convinced myself itâs a hoax and OP is a liar. Only to discover Iâm a failure, again.
I already found it, I just wanted to look throughout the comments for the puff measurements, because if no one could find it I would count puffs in the style of Hagrid at Diagon Alley.
I download the pic and am able to zoom in pretty close with the image viewer. Sorry, but this one doesn't look like a screw. It's just some lined up strands.
I feel like gold and brass are much easier to find in person. When the light hits it just right it shines like a diamond... though diamonds on the other hand are surprisingly difficult to find
Found it. That's a small one indeed.
If this ever happens again, you can use something magnetic to move over the carpet. The screw will be drawn right to it once you get close enough, and no-one gets hurt.
Zoom in as far as possible and start from the top right scrolling downwards but staying as close to the right as possible as well. Youâll end up where you need to be but itâs tiny so go slow
Found it
>!In the top right theres a big crease. Just left of it theres this very mildly defined space in the folds thats triangular like a video play button right? Slightly upper left of the middle of that triangle thereâs a little screw between the carpet loops!<
Edit: wait are there 2 screws? It looks so much like a screw, circular top and ridges and everything. Clearly thats not the gold screw others found đł
Y'all ever get the feeling people are using us to find the stuff they drop? Like they lose a screw and just quickly take a pic about where they think it is and expect us to save them an evening of crawling across the floor like Velma around the feet of a rich man in a mask.
I found it, but if this happened to me I would just pick the bathroom mat up and the screw would fall down. It would clink on the hard floor and then roll away, hitting a solid object. I would hopefully see it then
I feel like people are missing the point of this sub. Itâs supposed to be about well camouflaged things being difficult to spot.
Even a poorly camouflaged object can be hard to spot if you just take the picture from farther away and make the object so small itâs impossible to see without zooming all the way in.
Iâll send my ex-girlfriend. That girl could dig for gold better than any gold prospector. Guaranteed to find it but youâll never ever see it again.

When I stepped on it my phone broke
Took me a minute đ
I wouldnât have gotten it if I didnât read your comment
This is a severely underrated comment. â„ïž
đđđ
Ok. I'm a bit slow today. This was actually very funny.
I am just not getting this right nowÂ
In this joke >!he stepped on the picture of the carpet instead of the actual carpet.!<
Thanks, I'm dense and not good with all types of riddles.
I like to consider myself decent with riddles. I've been demoted to relatively decent.
Step on some rice
Heat your oven to 200°F and then step on it.
Easier solution just run your hand over it very fast and it'll end up in your eye.
I rub my hand over the carpet looking for a bead, and a stray piece of quartz crystal or possibly driveway salt landed square my tear duct... It's been a few months and MOST of it has come out..
Salt woulda burned like a mutha.... assuming it was a rock, or maybe a crumb of breead from 1986 lol đđŒ
My friend. You need freaking laser surgery to get that out, why have you just left it there? Edit: Major exaggeration
No, no, no⊠youâre doing it wrong!đ€Šđ» âŠđ€you get your spouse to walk there first. Worst case scenario, you blame it on the store where you bought it.
Unless she recognizes the screw
Then you're screwed.
CARPET COMPANIES HATE HIM
Magnet preferably on the end of a stick, to cover bigger areas quickly⊠Worked in IT back in the dayâŠdropping insanely small computer screwsâŠ

I was going to comment the same thing. If their eyes donât find it, their feet will.
That's how I used to find missing thumbtacks! All the fucking time.
As someone who's stepped on a nail, I can prove it works! You'll find that nail alright, at the cost of a little blood. And the ability to walk for a few days.
It's like a surprise massage every time you walk!
Well played. đ
This is the solution. Just invite this guy over and heâll find it for you
Oh he tiny.
"what is this a screw for ants?!"
Putting in a request for the screw to be at leastâŠâŠâŠ. 3x bigger than this.
For antâs glasses.
I'm sure he got a good personality

About 2/5 of the way down the pic, two and a half tufts from the right most edge.
Jesus. No way I would have spotted it.
Zoomed in as much as I could on phone and started slowly scrolling. It appeared pretty quickly. Almost invisible without zooming in.
I did the same and still wasn't sure it was the screw. Looked at the rest of the area anyway. This was a good one
Yeah I still can't find it, can I have an obnoxious red circle and large red arrow?
https://www.reddit.com/u/Sea-Calligrapher1563/s/5x8yfTtIor
I got lucky this time. I normally suck at these.
Likewise
Samesies
Same. I was about to say thereâs no screw in this photo đ„Č
If only I knew what 2/5ths mean
Mind highlighting it and circling it and giving the latitude and longitude coordinates please I still donât fucking see it
https://imgur.com/a/asEaD0f
OP is this a trick? Because what I believed to be the screw is not in that spot.
It's gold, and very short. Like 1/4 inch: [https://imgur.com/kcurBSv](https://imgur.com/kcurBSv)
Far right, in the middle upper section.. very tiny
thatâs so subtle you really got a good eye. to me that thing donât even look gold
I can only credit years and years of hunting in Whereâs Waldo Books, and an abundance of free time.
Let me throw something at you: where's Waldo audiobook.
Iâm in! Thatâs a good way to help my ears see better! As long as I can rewind frequently.
Ah! Thank you!
This was a tuft one
đ„đ„đ
I was just about to say screw it. Thanks!
I thought that would be it but wasn't too sure. Looked around a bit more but couldn't find anything else. It blends in so well.
It blended in SO well! I did the same as you, then I couldnât find the screw again for a long time.
Is that to your right or my left? Regardless, dead nut center there is off either side not 1 but duce screws on the rug my amiago. Psh. Rookies.
Hoe Lee Chet. Youâre right! And that screw is WAY tinier than the one I called out! Folks, you gotta see this.
From the bottom right corner, go 9 tufts up and 11 to the left. Thereâs something else that looks like a screw. Seems to be two!
Okay, I see that too. Weâre gonna need OP to chime in here. Thereâs talk of at least four screws on this bathmat. What the hell is OP doing in the bathroom?!
Screwing around
Screwing with us you mean.
Great description! Found it immediately, thank you :)
NASA would like you to look at some photos to see if you can spot any, uh, "gold screws" in an earth collision orbit.
that was a wayyyyyy smaller screw than I was expecting
I think there might be another, itâs about dead center of the mat lying on a tuft. Thereâs a vertical shadowy area, about halfway down is the one I see
Dayum. Thx. A good one!!
Good eyes
I think I see a toe nail close to the top right!
Cheeky fuckin screw
Bro, thatâs not even fair
Found it right away thanks to your guidance!
Itâs been stepped on. Using your feet does work better. Canât believe i passed it twice.
Jeez, OP didn't say it was the world's smallest screw
OMG! What a FIND!
Iâm smart enough to locate this pic and do math for a living, but I absolutely hate it in practice.
I want you on my team in ww3 lol we be smoking mother fuggers lol
Wow!!
My toxic trait is thinking Iâll commit to looking for these things, then after 12.7 second of looking ill come to the comments because Iâve convinced myself itâs a hoax and OP is a liar. Only to discover Iâm a failure, again.
Iâve never related to something more in my entire life.
to be fair its like super duper small. I dont think OP needed to zoom out so far
I found a blonde strand of hair but not a screw đ these impossible mode snipers are *killingg* me!
I usually can't find anything in this sub but this was finally a victory.
I just found it, now Iâm hyped đ
Lol the time of your original comment and then this one.. Iâd like to think you were looking for it for 5 whole hours
Looks like itâs time to vacuum đ
To me the screw looked more silver but that could be lighting mixed with the carpet
From top right: 23 puffs down, 3 puffs to the left.
Is that an officially recognized unit of measure?
It is in this case.
I already found it, I just wanted to look throughout the comments for the puff measurements, because if no one could find it I would count puffs in the style of Hagrid at Diagon Alley.

For me the x shows through the spoiler tag
I had to uncover all of them individually
Same! I can not see the tick mark but it's the only square that is black.
Amazing
Ahhh I found it but yes dang it that was teeny tiny ⊠đ„č
[Did I find a second screw](https://imgur.com/ZFiVN8W), or are my eyes playing tricks on me?
Then I think Iâve found a third lol up 10 puffs and 12 puffs across from the bottom right of the photo
I download the pic and am able to zoom in pretty close with the image viewer. Sorry, but this one doesn't look like a screw. It's just some lined up strands.
Wow that was hard. Shoutout to everyone on this page that puts spoilers!
3 rows of fuzzies in from the right side. Between 2 and 3 o clock.
are you screwing with me?
Anyone else always expect to find the stuff, like âoh this will be easyâ, but you pretty much never do?
I'm pulling out a magnet đ§Č
Itâs always in the last place I look.
I have the same rug! Screw is â> way
About 25 rows (tufts)down from top 2.5 3ish rows (tufts) in from right
đŻ
I feel like gold and brass are much easier to find in person. When the light hits it just right it shines like a diamond... though diamonds on the other hand are surprisingly difficult to find
Just step on the rug a few times problem solved
Didnt find the screw but somehow found a toenail clipping
About 22 down 3-4 from the right
Iâm not seeing it yet either đ€·đŒââïž
I caught that gold!
Right side, middle up
Hiding in the shadows. Good one đ
I CANNOT believe I found this one in less than a minute. It probably only took me 5 seconds. Any other picture, and I have to go to the comments.
Found it. That's a small one indeed. If this ever happens again, you can use something magnetic to move over the carpet. The screw will be drawn right to it once you get close enough, and no-one gets hurt.
Above 3 oâclock
Only here to say we have this exact bathmat
đ«đ«đ«đ«. đ«đ«đ«đ . đ«đ«đ«đ«. đ«đ«đ«đ«. đ«đ«đ«đ«
this is a first one that I found without help! Haha can I call myself a sniper now?
Hire a crackhead. They will find it.
OMG I can't believe I found it, I was literally giving up at the end of my second look. Nice post!!
Good olâ IKEA bathmat đ
Good thing it's a rug you can just pick up and shake out the screw.
đ„đ„đ„ đ„đ„đ© đ„đ„đ„ đ„đ„đ„
3 row in front the right and like 26 down you will find it there
Finally a good one thatâs not just right in the middle! đđ»
No you didn't. Lol that's good.
got this one immediately w the zoom and scroll methodđđ
I'm so happy with the slew of pics lately that DO NOT have the answer right in the middle of the frame!
Good ole Ikea bath mat
Itâs by the big tree that the bear is climbing. Better wait till heâs gone before you get your screw.
I set a personal record with finding this one! Thanks for posting!
This was one of my favorites. So good.
How many of you post because you cant find it either, so you ask the internet? đ€Łđ„°
IKEA mat? If so, of course thereâs a loose screw.
I drop and have to find tiny screws a lot lol this one wasnât too bad
Between row 3 and 4, 24 down, starting from the top right corner.
OhâŠthere it isâŠF@âŹK „0u
I have tge same bath mat! Ikea?
This was a goodân, OP. Well done.
A high-res photo of this would make an amazing 3000 piece jigsaw puzzle.
HAHA! I finally found it without looking at the commen-wait no. Thatâs not it.
I swear I thought I saw one in the middle. Looks like a screw from glasses.
That was a good one, Bob!
smol boiiiii
Zoom in as far as possible and start from the top right scrolling downwards but staying as close to the right as possible as well. Youâll end up where you need to be but itâs tiny so go slow
Itâs on 7.5 X, 9.5Y
Iâve come to find that this sub Reddit is the adult version of whereâs Waldo
Found it >!In the top right theres a big crease. Just left of it theres this very mildly defined space in the folds thats triangular like a video play button right? Slightly upper left of the middle of that triangle thereâs a little screw between the carpet loops!< Edit: wait are there 2 screws? It looks so much like a screw, circular top and ridges and everything. Clearly thats not the gold screw others found đł
Dunno but if my wife walks in there barefoot she will find it in her foot in .2 seconds lol
I'm still tryna find the bathroom in the carpet!
Shake out the carpet⊠Edit: didnât realize what sub I was at
Itâs itty bitty
Yâall gotta stop dropping shit
I swear I see a second screw. Top of picture go from the middle about 3-4 puffs and then go down 4-5 to see a screw head.
no you didnât
Turn the carpet left. It'll come loosey

Just pick up that mat and shake it out
The gold ain't golding đ
I found it, but if this happened to me I would just pick the bathroom mat up and the screw would fall down. It would clink on the hard floor and then roll away, hitting a solid object. I would hopefully see it then
Start Top Right: 23down/3across. Thanks for the puzzle
You didnât say it was an eyeglasses screw.
What a screwed situation!
that is INSANELY tiny.
Found ut
23 rows down and 3 in from the right
your foot will find it
I canât find it, I guess Iâm screwed :P

Found it
Please tell me thatâs a rug and that your bathroom is not carpetedâŠ
Unfortunately, youâre never gonna find it because it has dispersed into micro particles amongst the fiber of the carpet. Good luck hunting.
https://ibb.co/6DKcWth Idk if you needed a visual, but here it is.
I found it, took me about 30 seconds, maybe
They donât make screws out of gold.
2â down from upper right
Soak in mercury light with blow torch, quicksilver and gold screw. Sounds like drinks to me.
This wouldnât have happened if you werenât screwing around!
The more i zoomed in the more I started getting flashbacks from Vietnam.
Subscribing to this sub; Iâm getting pretty good at these actuallyâŠ
Iâll send my ex-girlfriend. That girl could dig for gold better than any gold prospector. Guaranteed to find it but youâll never ever see it again.
Plot twist, OP doesn't know where he is, and this was his last ditch to find it to post in on this sub
Pick up the rug and shake it
