Missing Socks

October 01st, 2007 | Category: Random Stuff

Interesting fact. Since I’ve been living alone and doing all my own washing I haven’t lost a single sock. I put in socks as pairs, socks come out and get paired. No socks go missing, no pairs get mixed up. Funny that :)

    Yes, whenever I do my own washing, nothing gets lost, or bleeds colour, or shrinks, or enjoys time with an expensive piece of consumer electronics…

    I was under the impression that you had CONSIDERABLE amounts of training in pairing socks in your formative years.

    I am well versed in the arts of sock pairing and sock folding. Indeed my method of folding socks has caused comment from many people as I don’t do the ‘get a pair of socks, bundle them up into a ball, throw them in a drawer’ method, instead opting for the ‘folded, ready to be placed on foot’ method (If I can be bothered I will document the difference detailing the benifits and whathaveyou). Anyway, regardless of how strong my sockfu is one cannot fold/pair what one doesn’t have. Give me 3 socks and I can only fold one pair. If I count the socks in and count them out (well, I don’t actually go so far as to count them, I just make sure pairs go in and come out) I can be fairly sure that all the pairs are there (unless I’m loosing socks in multiples of two).
