Laundry is supposed to be simple: put clothes in, add detergent, press a button, and live your life. But every household knows there is one glitch in this supposedly perfect system — the tragic, catastrophic, psychologically damaging disappearance of socks. Not both socks. Not rarely. But specifically, one sock from every pair disappears like it has been abducted by an interdimensional laundry portal. Each wash becomes an emotional rollercoaster, a drama that unfolds with the precision of a Shakespearean tragedy. And the worst part? No one ever sees the socks leave. Yet they’re gone.
