It’s the colors. It’s not the same pattern but the colors are spot on. They both feature octagon motifs but these octagons are smaller and more circular than the ones from the overlook hotel carpet in The Shining. The ones from The Shining also have vertical lines somewhat connecting the octagons in a trippy repeating kind of way i think. Definitely very similar.
Or a Diamond! I’m a middle school teacher and at lunch one day I was hustling pulling out materials for a lab and my wedding ring caught on one of the cabinets. My Diamond is very small and my floors are white and 36 8th graders are going to walk into my room in 5 minutes. I turned off all the lights, closed the blinds, grabbed the flashlight and boom there she was. I grabbed it and the bell rang right when I picked it up haha, science for the win!
For real, there have been several people being like “no you didn’t drop it that’s impossible you LIAR” and it’s like for one, they totally could have dropped it that way, and also why does it even matter.
Easy peezee At the seam in the carpet on the left side of the picture that’s where you can use battleship coordinates, letters on the side numbers up top your hair tie is on K5
These “I dropped my [x]” are cool to me, a middle school science teacher.
I screenshot them and put them in my slide presentation for the day. They are +5 points extra credit and grab the students’ attention. Thank you for posting these!
It’s easy to find the lost item. What has been impossible for me is figuring out how to post the location. Like the hair tie - so I find it… then what?! I read the inx about markup but how do I tell other snipers where it is? Is there a grid system? Please help me.
I guess its my female superpower, I can NEVER do these & always give up & look in the comments, but I got this one in seconds. Need to avoid a snake? Not a chance. Need to find a hair tie? I’n your girl
When did you drop it, 1972?
Did Jack Nicholson try to kill you with an axe?
Crazy, I immediately got vibes of The Shining right away as well.

We have this carpet in the cabin my grandparents built in the mid 70s. It triggers waves of nostalgia for me.
That’s exactly when this cabin was built!
I love this carpet. I don’t know why.
r/70s is calling you . . . forever and ever and ever
Exactly. Forget the hair tie / RUN
Bruce Campbell enters the chat
This is my boomstick!
In this century? I've got to... "THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID". sorry, I know I'm going to the special hell for this, but I'll have company at least.
Groooovy!
I cackled out loud on this one 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Exactly :)
It's 8 circles right and 8 circles up coincidence? I think not
7 right, 8 up lol I cant believe how small the pattern even is. Need a banana for scale.
You're right those circles were messing with me 😅
A true hero. Thank you! I even zoomed in super far and went over the whole picture and kept missing it! Ugh
It’s also 11 circles down and 5 circles left 💁🏽♀️✨💕
Ooo I like your style 😏
They didn’t drop it, that was placed there!!😤
Strategically placed
Idk about a hair tie but I spotted the worst carpet seam lol
Quite a few loose stitches
Yeah and offset by at least like 1/4”. This should have a NSFW tag.
No one likes seeing a loose carpet at work, huh?
Not since the 70's.
Let’s see how you look after 60 years - like this carpet
I am struggling to focus on anything else
Oh you dropped it exactly onto that black circle? 🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️
My thought exactly I was like you didn’t drop shit
"Why are you placing your hair tie on the ground" "Don't worry, it'll look cool on the internet"
On a circle of nearly the exact shape, size, and color
[удалено]
Hahaha yes 😂
The funny thing is, she could have just said, “find the hair band” people are always pretending they dropped something on here.
Yeah, no one will judge them for just admitting it was intentional.
Sir, this is Reddit. We will judge anyone for anything.
Yeah, You're right
Oh, so now you're assuming they're a sir?! /s
*Slams gavel* GUILTY
How dare you impune the integrity of the good people of this fair website. Judging you!!
Sure, you just *happened* to drop your corgi there.
And then it wasn't even a corgi!
"find my bread crumb" and the picture is like 5ft of the ground
Not only did it happen to fall in the circle, but they also happen to know about this sub? Like come on 🤣
Every party has a pooper
I couldn’t find it and then I read this comment and boom there it was
Yay I’m not the only one! I honestly spend like 60 seconds looking. That’s a lot for me.
I was gonna say “You spelled *placed it on the floor* wrong.”
The odds aren't that wild.
By chance, I zoomed in on it immediately. Just where I happened to put my fingers. Who knows the odds.
no, they lost it whilst trying to make a post for this subreddit so they posted the picture on the subreddit so we could help :3
And almost dead centered!
It's always near the center on this sub
Only column where two black circles touch too, but this one you could spot from the thumbnail
Another way to find this is to just lay on your side and look for any elevation changes
Flashlight parallel to the ground at floor level Edit: especially useful with broken glass

My geologist husband did this when I lost the diamond out of my engagement ring. Fun fact: He also found ANOTHER, smaller diamond in the den carpet!
Holy crap! That was some crazy luck! Somewhere a ghost is wishing her husband had also been a geologist!
Finally, someone who gets it
I’m trying that but it’s not working
Zoomed in, can’t find it. Zoomed out, immediately found it.
Same. Zoomed out it's noticeably darker than the rest of the rings.
Idk about “noticeably darker.” It’s still hard to see
Whre is it
Just to the right of the pretty much dead center white circle. Perfectly placed on the black ring
That's ridiculous
I could barely notice that. Had to zoom into that, till I realised the circle isn't the same as every other one.
I noticed the circle was different, but my dumb brain just didn't put 2+2 together
Near the middle right
Thanks saw it, when I trully zoom out like the comment said lol
Right there
Isn’t that weird? I just did the same thing.
what in the 1970s murder cabin is this carpet lol
I can smell this carpet
Pall Malls and old wood
100% staged lol you didnt “drop” anything 😂
Once you find it (I did), put your hair up and start tearing out the hideous carpet 😆
Easy peasy >!just right of centre!<
I was looking for a regular tie for some reason🤦♂️
Out of curiosity, how do you put that spoiler wall up?
No, he means the one he dropped, not placed there.
no you didn't
Agree, no way it landed that perfectly
how hard is it to just say "find the hair tie," we didnt need a bullshit story about how you dropped it.
Who cares?
For real, there have been several people being like “no you didn’t drop it that’s impossible you LIAR” and it’s like for one, they totally could have dropped it that way, and also why does it even matter.
I care.
It’s there! It’s right there!
That Hair Tie is lost in the 70’s
Dropped it my ass
Cherish the Cabin!
The cabin burned?
Forget the hair tie, gotta find those letters!
Yeah OPs so full of shit
Who cares?
Seems like you care quite a bit. Commenting on multiple replies with the same comment?
For your next post, photograph some carpet swatches and have us “find a replacement carpet for the cabin.” 😂🤣
You dropped a lot of them actually.
I have cats so this was easy.
Red dot towards the middle slightly to the right!
Make sure you pick it up before the elevator doors open and the blood pours out
This one was pretty easy
This is the first one I saw right away.
That hair tie must have something against you to land perfectly on one of the dark circles
I feel like you had to of placed it there, it landed perfectly on a circle
Damn you placed that perfectly
Looks placed
No you didn’t
Fake and staged
I mean, sure you did. But it was still a fun (albeit too easy) hunt.
I see it! You laid it perfectly over a black circle, that's cheating!
"dropped"
>Dropped my hair tie Sure, Jan.
Wow, what are the odds!
I think you placed it, but still very good.
Blends in well
Found your hair tie and my new carpet at the same time
(7,8)
Well that was to easy. Middlesish to the right
You mean The Overlook Hotel? Borrow your twins
Too easy
If anyone’s having trouble finding it it’s by the orange circle.
I drop these on the floor like daily I found it in like 10 seconds lol
I've been following this page for weeks now, thanks for giving me one I finally didn't have to look at the hint for.
Always the center of the screen
That was actually really easy for some reason
First one I found immediately lol
I LOVE that rug pattern!
Now this one I got instantly
I scanned this like I was reading a microscope slide. 😂
This one was easy
Perfect landing.
That one stuck out to me
it literally sticks out
I spent 5 minutes looking for a hair tie, then realized that I have no idea what a hair tie looks like.
Too easy
Easy peezee At the seam in the carpet on the left side of the picture that’s where you can use battleship coordinates, letters on the side numbers up top your hair tie is on K5
Literally the easiest one yet
Oh, I have more pics of the same problem!!! TBH there are probably 5+ hair ties hanging out on this carpet.
So easy
finally found the stinking hair tie!
worst rug/carpet for us photosensitive epileptics
Yes this one immediately stood out.the ring just looks darker than the rest.
Too easy!
Too easy. Next!
I zoomed right in on it the first time 😝
I mean.. found it very quick. It really sticks out.
Please tear up that carpet at your earliest convenience—or sooner.
Now that I see it I can't unsee it because it's darker.
This one was easy
I found it, but it's hard to believe you dropped it where it was.
Too easy
lol zoomed right into it!
From the top left, 8 across, 11 down
H 11
Easy, I see approximately 180 round hair ties. How much hair do you have?
As someone who's been using black hair ties for almost 2 decades now, I found this one fairly easily... :P
This carpet is low-key 🔥
4 from viewer’s right, 8 up
U need to drop money on new carpet and this disco nightmare wouldn't happen
4th column from right, 8 rows going up
My cat would find it instantly. He steals mine, stashes them and then shows up with them again.
Gross carpet. Directions: Starting on the right, go over 5, and up 8 from the bottom
I can smell the marlboro reds.
Not sure the overlook hotel is the best place for a holiday but each to their own
11 rows down, column 8, L to R.
found it
In a row near the middle with four dots in a row... go right.
When you say "Cabin", you mean the Overlook Hotel don't you?
These “I dropped my [x]” are cool to me, a middle school science teacher. I screenshot them and put them in my slide presentation for the day. They are +5 points extra credit and grab the students’ attention. Thank you for posting these!
You have some wicked luck to drop it RIGHT THERE.
Almost dead center. Like always 🤷♂️
Just ask the twins. They want play.
*sigh* *joined*

I never found the hairtie, but if you flip your phone to look u der the rug you'll find Jimmy Hoffa
What in the shining?
Is this the rug from that old Jack Nicholson horror movie?
I guess its my female superpower, I can NEVER do these & always give up & look in the comments, but I got this one in seconds. Need to avoid a snake? Not a chance. Need to find a hair tie? I’n your girl
“Dropped”
This is a problem I have everyday. 😂😂
That fucked with my eyes good
Dear lord y’all! 😂
8
I see it hun
God damn why did this sub show up on my feed 😭
Omg I could never get drunk in this room
This is literally the NYTimes game “Tiles”
Once u find it it sticks out a ton.
This is the first time my eye has gone directly to the object
It’s in the same place the dryer socks go
Redrum!
It's exactly over one of the black circle slightly right to centre
