you wash clothes, and when you fold everything, there is (sometimes) ONE sock missing! Where does it go??

Well, it runs off to join the circus.
Unfortunately, most of them don't make it as clowns or freaks so they eventually have to "whore" themselves out as sock puppets.

Sometimes due to static cling, they will be inside a pants leg or skirt. If they are not there, then they have gone into the sock zone. It is an alternate universe that momentarily opens up only inside clothes dryers. A little elf from the other side reaches in and quickly grabs a sock just before the zone portal closes.
Someone else suggested a sock shark but I don't find that very plausible!

Most socks are only socks, however _some_socks are actually eggs. Eggs of what? you may ask. They are the eggs of bicycles.
Here is the lifecycle.....
The bicycle lays its egg(s) in your sock drawer
you inadvertently wear that egg (it looks, acts, and feels just like one of your own socks)
It goes into the wash with the rest of the laundry where it is fertilized by ...the washing machine.
It then becomes mobile and crawls out of the wash tub and into the closet where it hatches into bicycle larva.
The bicycle larva is ....coathangers. That's why you have so many more coathangers than you have clothes to put on them.
The coathanger/bicycle larva eventually pupates in a pupal casing that looks like a stack of old newspapers.
When the newspapers get thrown out, the pupae emerge as tricycles and quickly mature into the standard 26" bicycle.

Some of the larva of course are used as coathangers. If the clothing that is put on these larva is imported or very expensive, the larva are predisposed to become more exotic cycles such as 10 speed racers, mountain bikes, English touring bikes, and the like.

I hope that this clears the lifecycle of the 'lost' sock for you.

Socktopia.

Actually, the sock never makes it to the dryer in the first place. Missing socks are most often sucked into the hose that drains the washer.

So, the washer did it!
Gosh, I feel like Perry Mason, vindicating his wrongly accused client!

I'm telling you never ever trust a dryer...........they eat socks on a regular basis. It's a little known fact that they need to be fed socks every now and then to keep them happy

Lest I be yelled at for taking this too seriously...

I just can't... some ppl really don't know the real answer. The drum of the dryer sucks them up. If you took the dryer apart you'd find all of your lost socks!

The sock monster that lives under the dryer eats it.

They are defecting one by one, building a huge Sock Army for Freedom! It is said in the year, 2107 there will be enough "lost socks" to take the world back for themselves! Moohaha!

The devil sneaks into your house when you're drying socks, and eats one.

Or it can also be The Flying Dutchman (Off of Spongebob), he has to have a dinning sock. (If you watch Spongebob a lot you'll know what I'm talking about.)

Why does everyone blame the poor dryer? I think that washer took it. Probably down in some sewer where the washer water goes.
