Or maybe they're part of some sort of sock monastery.<br /><br />Well, I flunked Physics in high school, but I aced Biology :) That might explain why I prefer the 'sox-sex' hypothesis ;)Jason Janickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04571845720693197723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812930407718856652.post-14892830187318387022013-01-29T14:07:08.418-08:002013-01-29T14:07:08.418-08:00I actually came across an explanation for this phe...I actually came across an explanation for this phenomenon years ago when I was doing research for a high school science paper on black holes. There is something called the particle pair theory, which states that as two identical particles reach the event horizon of a black hole, they are split apart, one particle gets pulled into the gravity well, while the other is shot off at a tangent. <br /><br />So the theory is that something about the physics of a clothes dryer generates a very small singularity, a miniature black hole so to speak. If a pair of socks comes close enough to this singularity during the tumble cycle, one sock will be pulled in, collapsed by the intense gravity, while the other is tossed out into the rest of the laundry, to be discovered later as a lonely sock.<br /><br />Yes, I actually found that explanation in a real book on astrophysics, although I'm pretty sure it was done as a joke. I included it in my report anyway; my teacher got a kick out of it.Blackbird71noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812930407718856652.post-53764590494687124122013-01-22T08:10:54.043-08:002013-01-22T08:10:54.043-08:00What you are failing to take into account is the h...What you are failing to take into account is the hyperdimensional functionality of a spinning dryer, combined with the terminal mass dysfunction.<br />If you ever notice, it's rarely 1 sock that is mismatched, typically it is 3. <br />What is actually happening is that the mass of the socks combined with the centripetal acceleration of the dryer drum creates a temporal anomaly that risks tearing reality. Dryers are engineered to displace the extra mass, equating to 3 socks, through the wormhole. This causes those 3 socks to be displaced in time. Sometimes you find extra socks in your dryer, and sometimes you find 3 less than you put in.

But my socks must never have sex then, because I never find an uneven number when I'm taking care of my laundry. I may have an uneven number in my drawer though, since I retire socks when they have holes on both sides. My major problem with socks while doing laundry is to pair them together with socks of similar wear & tear, plus size. Right now I'm wearing a rather mismatched pair, size-wise.Gillsinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00704484951954912025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812930407718856652.post-60592262895124463292013-01-16T05:31:50.999-08:002013-01-16T05:31:50.999-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00051714713211851570noreply@blogger.com
