The person who knows where my socks are.
Where do disappearing socks go?
Since the dawn of humanity, or at least since the invention of socks, this problem has plagued mankind. Why is it that no matter how many socks you have, how careful you are to transfer them directly to the hamper when you take them off, directly to the washer/dryer when they need to be cleaned, directly to the drawer once they are clean, you eventually end up with fewer socks than when you started? Why is there always one single sock that's a completely different color or pattern or shape than all of the others? I will attempt to address this today, and bring to an end an age of indecision and torment in the human psyche. What follows are a series of theories and explanations. Perhaps you will find your solution in then. I certainly hope so.
Theory #1: Evolution
We've certainly all run into the situation where not only have half of some of your matched pairs disappeared, they've been replaced with other socks which you've never even seen before. Where the hell did this sock with the mauve stripes and the diagonal pleating come from? And what the hell happened to the left (or is it right?) of your favorite socks, the ones with Abraham Lincoln giving Jefferson Davis the finger on them? Why is it that you have six socks with different-colored stripes on them? Evolution, obviously.
Take a look at some of Nature's weirdest creatures, like your average chameleon or shapeshifter. These guys can change their appearence to fit a new situation. It's a survival reflex. Long ago, your socks realized that if they continued to match and look like socks, you'd keep wearing them, develop large holes in the heels, and eventually throw them out to live the rest of their lives in obscurity. They don't want this. They want to be thrown out now, so that they can live out their days at the dump, amongst the old cardigans and G. I. Joes. So they change. They develop new shapes and patterns, ones that they noticed when you left them on the floor next to old Victoria's Secrets and Soldier of Fortunes. They're hoping that you'll say, Feh! I don't need this sock with the neon-green hatching and the googly eyes at random intervals! and throw them out. But they can only effect this transformation in the presence of water and then heat, which (as everybody knows) are to socks like toxic waste in old movies is to people.
Defensive tactics:
The only really good ones is to wash your socks by hand, one at a time, to ensure that they don't change while you're not looking. Make sure to air-dry them in a prominent location. What you're relying on here is the fact that socks are extremely shy and will not shapeshift in the presence of humans.
