Heathendom? Never mind. I'll make cake instead.

Maybe they're on top of your head. That happens with 'lost' sunglasses all the time, so it is only fair to assume that it can happen with socks as well.

Yes.

This is important.

Everyone needs sock cat ears.

Nothing that exotic. Socks just have a way of going there where you the least expect them.

Impressive.

This is why I generally get socks that are all identical (all black or all white socks). That way, you're less likely to lose a pair.

Anyway, off to bed. No novels written, alas.

That sounds extremely German. Anyways, they still get lost. Then you have seven white and four black socks and you don't know where the rest went.

Fair point. But you can at least wear two socks and not have them appear to be mismatched.

Bleh, white socks. But your example shows that you'll at least have five pairs of socks, so that should last you for a few days.

True. But then you lose four white socks. Then a black sock. Then another white and black sock. Then another white and black. Then you have to wear mismatched socks.

Other people would buy new socks, but you are not other people. No, you are special. You do things differently!

Buying new socks is a sign of weakness. You're letting the socks win.

It is not my fault you are incapable of keeping your socks together. Do not blame your shortcomings on me.

What is wrong with wearing mismatched socks?
