A Totally stupid pointless thread

Do you think the socks and shoes are tryign to run away together? or run from each other? Maybe they belonged to someone with bad foot odor and the shoe jumped out?

I don't know. I have lost shoes before too. how does it happen? I have one ugg boot where did the other one go (I suspect Teddy had something to do with it's disappearance)? but I don't think it's laying in the road

but that is another one. WHERE do the socks go? I've bought hannah three 12 packs of socks... and I can't find them after one wash. I can barely fill one pack with the pairs she has left. where did they go?

I heard somewhere something about them getting in behind the washer bucket (don't know what that is actually called). don't know how true that is but maybe if my washer ever dies I will crack it open and check

hahahaha.. that could be it...

I too have lost countless socks... can even fill one bag.. just like you.. wonder were they went.. must be a sock party somewhere...lol

same here. we have piles of single socks lol. I can bare to throw them out just in case I ever find their partner one day.

It's one of those things we will never have the answer to I guess.

I mean you never lose a pair of pants or a shirt in the wash do you?

Yeah where the heck are those socks????? Sometimes if I buy a colorful pair I really like I buy two pairs just in case half runs away

Ever see sneakers hanging from a telephone wire? I see them all the time and wonder how they get up there. Rumor has it that it's a sign that it's a drug area.

Yes I have. I always just assumed it was some cruel joke. Like kids used to do. steal your shoes tie the laces together and throw them over a telephone wire. and while I have never actually witnessed kids DOING this I have heard it's one of the mean things they like to do.

but I have also heard about the area marking thing. it's like claiming their territory or something.

very weird either way. like how did that come to be? "HEY this is my turf so I'm gonna throw a pair of my shoes up there and then everyone will know"

odd

AND

why does everything look better in the dressing room mirror than in your own mirror when you get home and try on the same outfit?

I figure as long as there is not a leg attached to the shoe, it's okay

Around here it's a sign the seniors are getting ready to graduate. Happens pretty much every May . . . . first they throw the caps, then the shoes
