Have you ever left something in the fridge that wasn't food?

[Fluttershutter 2,118]

I guess it's a sign that you eat too much. 

I just left my book in there.

A hard drive. It was broken and I tried to make it work one more time (to get the data from it) by freezing it - this sometimes helps. It did not help in that case.

What for? I never heard putting hard drives in the fridge or something.

It rarely helps, but sometimes does help to get the drive to work one last time to recover the data from it.

And since nobody was willing to pay for real data recovery, this was a cheap option to try.

I left myself in the fridge.

[SharpWit 2,472]

If it's a particularly hot day I'll wetten a shirt and lay it out in the freezer for a few minutes?

[cuteycindyhoney 13,283]

I've left my keys in the refrigerator a couple times. My cellphone, once.

Oof,  is your cell phone okay and still working after you accidentally put it in a fridge?

It was only for like a minute. No harm done.

[AppleButt 8,669]

Yeah.  Was at work once.  Couldn't find my phone, and gave up looking after awhile thinking I left it at home.  A few hours later I opened the fridge, got my dinner, and saw my phone in the bag.  

Still dunno why I put my phone in my lunch bag lol. 

[The Mint Pone 2,292]

i bought some body wash a couple days actually and couldn't find it till I went to make dinner and i saw it sitting with the milk 

[ExplosionMare 18,007]

When I was little I was obsessed with putting small toys in cups of water then sticking them into the freezer

[DixonTheAdversary 1,631]

Not that I can remember. Maybe when I was a really little kid, but I don't know.

[North Star 4,540]

A desiccated cabbage. It's advertised as food. But now I know better.

[Awkward Segway 301]

Yes: drinks!

Aside from that, no.

[Twilight Sparkle97 395]

My toy boat, though it was probably my brother who put it in there, not me.  That happened like 11 or 13 years ago. 

[Harmonic Revelations 8,833]

Something I've kept in my fridge that isn't food? Definitely not the dead body in my fridge right now.

 

Because it's technically edible so it counts as food.

[Fluttershutter 2,118]

I mean I set my book down in there and forgot about it. Then I was looking around for the book. That's more what I meant.

Anyway I know some people keep batteries in there.

I’ve left keys, a can of Lysol and mittens in there. A tad absent-minded I guess.

I did freeze a Han Solo action figure into a little block of ice in the freezer once (you know, like a carbon freeze kind of thing), but that was deliberate.

That’s a cold dream.
