    Missing Shit

    Socks.

    Where the fuck do they go?

    1) Take x pairs of socks (where x is any number greater than 1).
    2) Wash and dry them (with some other laundry).
    3) Count the socks.
    4) Match them up.
    5) What the fuck?

    Who is the fucking sock goblin that eats socks?
    You, sir, are a God among men....
    Short Men, who aren't terribly bright....
    More like dwarves with learning disabilities....
    You are a God among Dwarves With Learning Disabilities.

    I do not do laundry.

    I just had to conduct this experiment myself because the maid claimed a Pee was stealing my socks after I shouted at her for losing my socks.

    What fucking ghost has a sock fetish?

    I threw away an odd sock today. I was wearing both last week. I went through the entire basket and bedroom floor, it's gone. It's a mystery.

    I intend to set up a web cam to monitor my laundry basket (I will stream it live).

    I'm sure technology can solve this mystery.

    A nobel prize awaits.....

    I solved the problem...murdered the washing machine and threatened the maid she would go the same way if she did not hand wash my socks...

    Maid hates the cable round her neck but I keep telling her not to worry...just as long as she doesn't drop below 1000 watts...

    Socks are amphibious.
    When put into water they will mate, and like certain spider species, after mating the female sock will devour its mate.

    Here is an American female sock eating a baby by mistake.

    Do you have a dog. A thai dog used to steal my socks in the village.

    Anyway, this could be a sign of dementia. No offense. It's not funny.

    I keep my things in the same places, always. I'm not very "organized" at home. I'm a busy guy. I don't think about these things but I do have a system. Everything si in the same place.

    Good luck.

    Could be.... she is 22. Probably time to trade her in for a younger model without memory loss.

    So do I. But then I have a wife who decides the furniture needs to be re-arranged in the middle of the night.

    Two weeks ago I found my whole office had been moved to a different room. I thought I'd woken up in the wrong house (again. )

    It is a good metaphysical conundrum but the main point seems to be that everyone is raised to think socks must be worn as pairs like shoes. Neither is really the case. Socks an be worn separately at least running socks.
    There is/was a famous gent renowned for always wearing one brown and one black shoe. Yes they were probably very nice shoes and not obvious from a distance like say one bright blue Nike and one yellow Adidas but....
    You should never allow yourself to be held back merely by not knowing anything at all about anything.

    Socks go to that same space time continuum that ballpoint pens go.

    I used to wonder where my socks and other laundry items disappeared to.. I once got around to doing a bit of gardening and found a large stash of the missing items that had been buried there by my dog, obviously a bit bored during the daytime.

    I waste about 3mins every morning trying to pair up socks. That's nearly 18 hours a year. They are all black but there are different shape combinations.

    Fucking too right. I brought 5 pens with me for this trip to Vietnam, just so that I could fill in my arrival card when I get back to Thailand. I'm sat in the airport now in HoChi Minh and I've got one left.

    Identical socks work for me, I bought 30 pairs of proper woolen work (I wear steel cap boots 60hrs per week) socks out from OZ last year. No issue with odd socks although I think Iam down to 20 pairs now.

    A while ago in some TV magazine there was an expert on washing machines taking questions.

    Invariably the question came up if washing machines do eat socks.

    His answer was: No, washing machines don't eat socks. They disappear into a parallel dimension.

    A group of marine biologists were scratching their heads over crab specimens disappearing from the tanks over night. They set up CCTV and discovered an octopus in another tank across the room was climbing out of it's tank ... crawling across the floor ... climbing up and into the crabs tank ... and eating them. Then it returned to it's own tank the same way.

    Any octopi lurking around your laundry?
    You can use logic to justify anything. That's its power. It’s also its flaw.
