    As thread title says, I found a sim card today while hoovering the stairs. No idea where it came from. Only me and OH living here, although there were 2 workmen here this morning to look at the bathroom (do workmen carry loose sim cards in their pockets? Does anyone for that matter??). I tried putting it in my phone to see what saucy/juicy stuff I might find on it, alas; it is not from my network. So, AH, what possible explanations can you offer for the mysteriously appearing sim card?

    Do you have an old unlocked phone you could put it in? Or a sim card reader device? Maybe there is someone living in your attic?!

    The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply, and after much analysis of the various and varied variables and simulating countless possible scenarios a thousand years into the past and future, like Deep Blue on speed, reckons that somebody probably accidentally dropped it.

    There wont be anything on the card except phone numbers so no saucy stuff for you.


    of course, your OH could be leading a double life, cooking meth in the wilds of cavan and getting deeper and deeper into the drug trade.

    Or the OH is leading a clandestine existance without your knowledge :eek:

    There might be only one number on the other sim!!

    It's a clue! Put the sim in a working phone and await your instructions.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,299 ✭✭✭✭The Backwards Man


    Stick it in your phone and ring 112 and ask them who's calling

    The SIM card is from Morpheous and the lads. You are the one.

    This is entirely possible but in no way contradicts my answer. The question was "what possible explanations can you offer for the mysteriously appearing sim card?". Further investigation comes by further arrangement and at outrageous expense. As it stands, you owe the Oracle a signed boobie picture.

    You're OH is clearly having an affair.

    Yup, definitely an affair. Go snooping and see if he has 2 types of phone chargers lying around the house.

    Sorry, I forgot to mention that our baby also lives here with us but seeing as his ability with electronics doesn't extend beyond dribbling on them, I think we can rule him out.

    OH is on the same network as the sim card but as far as illicit/clandestine affairs go, I'm 100% certain that I satisfy/frighten/exhaust him in equal enough measure that it's not possible :pac: I find the notion of him leading a double life as a criminal or spy quite intriguing though...... And also, there could be someone stowing away in the attic :eek:

    Of course, I could always just call the workmen, who would be the most plausible explanation, but then I risk sounding like a eejit nutjob if it isn't theirs and then they might not come back and fix the toilet :(

    Funny you should say that, exact thing happened to my sister in law. She found a SIM - stuck it into her phone and found saucy texts from her husband. When her husband admitted he was having an affair, she threw the phone at him and whatever way it connected, it ended up dislocating his eye socket.

    I would never condone domestic violence but there is definitely an amusing irony in that story.....

    Ahh...hate to say it but I thought the same about my OH...not putting thoughts in your head or anything..:)

    Does it look like it may be semi digested, a vague small of poo per chance?

    Does your husband look like any of these gentlemen?

    Put it in your phone and ring up some assHole politician with a death threat.

    Put it in his phone then. If it's the same network then it will work. If he doesn't let you then be worried.
