If it does I can't find it. Plus I'm too lazy to look. So I'll just keep staring at that screen. Staring...

No problem!
Simply write a parser to go over your code and trim trailing white spaces.
What's wrong with an entire application to find a trailing space? Hmmmm?

Of course! Why didn't I think of that.
It should probably be a VS extension, and should work with all current and future versions in all cultures.
This could take weeks of procrastination productive time saving work.

I think you are joking. 
There is a SED one-liner for finding any file recursively from a parent folder and printing any file that contains lines that end with a white space. You can also do it with PowerShell.
I don't remember how to do either one of them off the top of my head.

Absolutely! This is well past where that tool has stopped being "productive" or helpful.

I recently took a morning debugging an application that for some reason didn't work.
After hours I found a non printable character in an encrypted password in the web.config 
It's nothing short of a miracle that I found it at all

Non-printable occasionally end up in my php files from (I don't know where) - and when I try to start a session it gets rather cross with me. Three unprintable characters to start the file.
Once I discovered the problem I only have the annoyance of opening it in HexEdit, replacing the characters with printable ones, saving, and then deleting them on the other side.
Still, at least I know the cure, if not the cause.

Let me guess - are they: 0xEF, 0xBB, and 0xBF?
If so, that would be the UTF8 Byte Order Mark:

I literally went over all of my failing files and cleaned it up. Seems about right.
What I need to do, then, is find which editor/tool is adding that.
Since I've some templates to get most new pages started, I just checked and found it in my primary editor. Somehow, it reminds me of the stoned virus in reverse. As long as I keep using templates. Same for various library-ish files. Only when something rather new is created does it show.
Thanks and Kudos!
* Templates to save me some work and keep users comfortable with something similar to what they've seen before.

For some reason solving those types of issues give me the greatest satisfaction.
I dunno why.

That type of dream is normally referred to as a nightmare.

Notepad++ - search for " \n" in extended character search mode. Or, if you want it a little more challenging, you can do the same thing in Microsoft Word, but that probably isn't the correct instruction for that program (and I'm not going to figure it out)!

My editor trims trailing whitespace.
Trailing whitespace is about the only kind I don't like. 
|
|
|
|
|
Visual Studio's editor used to have a rather convenient way of finding trailing whitespace using regular expressions. The newer releases have made it far less convenient.

Maybe paste the code into a text-editor that allows you to search using regular expressions (i.e., Notepad++) and search using "^.+\s$"?
