I was just putting away my laundry, and there's an odd blue sock. I've checked inside the washing-machine, and on the floor, and made sure it's not stuck to any of my other clothes, so where is it?
Have any of you seen it?
Is there a sock-fairy? And if so, what do they leave in return?
(And before you ask, yes, it's a gay sock. They're the only kind I wear.)

LOVING these answers! You lot are so cool.
(And Chris, I wasn't going to bring it up so publicly, but are the purple-and-grey striped boxers yours? You know what my memory's like. Let me know if you want them back.)

Description: it's a size 9 (UK) medium-blue trainer-sock. Nothing fancy.

HawkOhio: No, I can live with a bit of man-sweat. (Does that make me dirty?)

You know what, that happens to so many of us.
There isn't a sock fairy at all, that's why there's nothing left once your sock has disappeared. Wanna know why...its the dryer monster. You see, the dryer monster has to eat and he only eats socks. This has been going on since the dryer was first made. The manufacturers did this on purpose because women were so demanding of the new-found creation, that they no longer longed for the fresh smell of clothes drying in the breeze as it hung on the line (notice, no socks were ever missing when clothes are hung out to dry - well, Spot might drag the laundry down, but he never ate the socks). So the nasty little men thought they would fix those housewives for wanting better technology and created the monster dryer that had to eat. They never bothered to tell any of the women. You see, that way, the people who created socks would never go out of business. Because in the '60's, the days of hippies came to be and no one wanted to wear socks.
The dryer monster was invented for a purpose. ;)

Listen, if only I knew the answer to that, I could quit staring at the single sock in my hand like a monkey looking at the back of a watch. As if that isn't enough, honest-to-god, this happened to me two days ago: there was a pair of thick navy socks on top of my chair of clothes...no idea whatsoever who's they are, how they got there, nothing. Rather creeped me out, that one.

There is a sock fairy and she only takes odd socks. She never takes the full pair. The one sure way to win the war against this sock fairy is to safety pin both of the socks together when you launder them. They will be together and you will never have an odd sock again.

It is most likely inside the sock you have. Try turning that one inside out. If you still seem to only have one sock, then they are definitely together.
I can also help with why the days seem to get longer in summer.
I'm on a roll today, Rose P.

It might have showed up at my house, I get all kinds of lost socks here. My dryer is like the reverse vortex Im sure. When some one looses a sock ..its usually here. I have so many single socks its not funny.

Socks are small; sometimes they get outside the drum of the washing machine. Oh, and there's also the Sock Gnomes...

It may be at my house.
I currently have a record 21 odd socks. Yours may have dropped by to visit and forgotten the way home.
Can you describe the sock?

I have 5 single socks in my bedroom right now. That blue sock is mine, if it's a cable knit. Is this your black knee-high?

You will never find the other one until you throw out the first one. Unless the sock sprites ran out of clothes again...hmmmm
