funny you should ask that, you may want to sit down for this.
It all started with the classic bic ballpoint pen, when they were first invented, there was rejoicing the street. everyone loved them, they were on top of the world. slowly but surely people started to dress them up, you know them when you seee them, those novelty pens with fluffy bits here and there, resembling animals and what not.
The pens did not take kindly to this, they felt they were being mocked. they have started a revolution, it began with them rolling into different places so you think you're going mad misplacing them, but now they've taken to leaving your houses and places of work. they plan to dissapear completely, throwing us into a world of pencils. it will be turmoil. good luck
*runs and hides* save yourselves

Doesn't it seem that way though? I've heard lots of people have this problem. I think that it has nothing to do with burglars of any sort. Thing is, once and a while, very LIGHTWEIGHT things fall into a sort of black hole... as their are very small ones in the universe the size of pen tips... sometimes they get large enough over the period of many many years to swallow things like socks and pens...

they bounce away on the non ink end while your not looking. if you ever notice that clicking sound when all is quit well that is your pen escaping throwing off the shackles of servitude. They rather enjoy the warm climate of the couch though and many can be found there.

Whatever it is, it's happening where I work. I left a pen on my desk while I went to lunch, and when I got back an hour later it had disappeared. I've taken to putting my name on it, but even this doesn't stop them going missing.

Hi,
I think they have run away with my missing pens. That also goes for my missing socks. I have a pile of odd socks.
I'm sure I have gremlins in my house.

First there were the underpants gnomes, then came the sock gnomes, and in this time of financial uncertainties, they have sparked an new alliance with the pen gnomes!

Didn't you know? They have their own planet and they gradually migrate there when you're not looking. It's a bit like going on Hajj except they stay there living it up in biro paradise.
