Who thinks the term "It's always the last place you look" is really stupid?

Question

I mean, of course it's the last place you look! Who would keep looking after they've already found it?

Answer 1

I do, because when you find the thing that your looking for, you stop looking, am I right?

Answer 2

Because people tend to ignore the obvious and search in places they know it couldn't be, and sometimes you say, well, I'll look here and if it's not there, I don't have no idea where it could be, then it's THERE and you say, "had to be the last place I looked"~!

Answer 3

It's the last place because you stop looking after that.

Answer 4

The term is "the last place you would think to look."
And that term, yes, is pretty stupid, but the concept has been utilized in many cool ways. For example, in saw. the thing in his eye. if he was looking for it, last place he'd search is in his (her) eye. poor lassie.

Answer 5

If it bugs you, try looking in the last place, first.. then you can cut out a lot of futile 'looking'. hehehe

Answer 6

heh heh heh. yeah, and those pple who, at a movie theatre, go "did you see that?" no, dummy. i spent 10 dollars to look at the damn floor. or the pple who say "you just want to have your cake and eat it too". dman right. whats the point of having cake, and not eating it?? or when pple point at their wrists when asking you the time. i know where my watch is, do i point at my crotch when asking where the bathroom is??? people really annoy me sometimes.

Answer 7
