There’s an ad I’ve seen on TV a few times lately. A couple is going through a parents’ house after they have died, looking for some important insurance papers or something. However, the other night it came on while I was in the kitchen fixing dinner, so I only heard the audio, and this is what I heard:

“It’s hard when you lose a loved one.”

“Have you looked in the filing cabinet?”

😅
