Dropped my butter robot meme draft into the wrong folder and lost 3 hours of work

Was at my desk around 2am last Tuesday putting together this edit of the butter robot staring at a toaster with this deep existential caption I spent like an hour tweaking. Had it all layered in GIMP with the right font and timing. Then I went to save it and somehow clicked the wrong folder in my rush. It went into some random system folder I can't find now. Spent the next hour digging through file history and backups but it's just gone. Had to start over from scratch and honestly the new version came out better somehow. Has anyone else had a dumb file save mistake actually work out for the best?
