Missing socks in the wash

    Where the fúck do they go? I'm getting sick of it.

    I think maybe it's the man that lives downstairs. Maybe I'll accuse him when I bump into him in the hall or maybe I'll be wearing all of his clothes when I bump into him and act oblivious.

    :mad:

    That'd be me. Why do you think I put them in the wasH?

    Im suffering badly from this currently, I like to own a large sock collection (have a weird fresh socks thing going on + all the ****)

    But my sock drawer is full of lost souls :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,859 ✭✭✭✭Sharpshooter


    Just buy all black socks OP.

    Then it doesn't matter.

    /make sure you wash the unwashed though, cos that's when the problem can get irritating.

    I think about 5 pairs have managed to escape on me in the last two months. It's unreal. Definitely not my housemate. He only wears quare coloured socks.

    Fcuking gnomes.

    **** into all black socks gets boring. I like to mix it up.

    Buying packs of identical socks is your only hope.

    Gnomes only rob underwear! do you know nothing??!!

    I thought our washing machine was eating socks. I have quite a collection of single lonely socks now. My mother laughed at me and said they were obviously under my bed. They weren't.

    A few weeks later the washing machine goes on strike. Refuses to drain. GRR!! So we called the maintenance guy and he did his thing.

    Turns out it was actually eating socks! There were two lodged in the filter!!!!

    That's what they want you to think. Where do you think their hats come from?

    Tub of red paint, can of starch, and bobs your uncle.

    I've taken to buying 7packs of socks labelled Monday, Tuesday....Sunday in Marks & Spencers, and they are disappearing on me in pairs. If it was a random sock disappearing then fair enough I'd put it down to chance, but both Wednesday and Saturday are gone from the latest batch bought just a month ago.

    I think they may be a more advanced lifeform than they are given general credit for.

    You didn't give them the love and the attention they deserve.
    You can't just be gallivanting around with other more colourful socks.
    Next time try taking them all out to the zoo or draw a picture together.
    Socks need loving too. That does not mean a quicky before bed .

    Ah for god's sake, if this was a problem for a woman we would just peg the socks together before we put them in the washing machine.

    :p

    Maybe it was some uptight bitch who replaced it with a mini one from a barbie

    It's the foreigners, jobs, wimmens, swans, socks. It doesn't matter to them! :mad:
