There is no logical way in the world that a sock could fall behind the washer… But socks have little concern for logic, and it happens. And then there is the LSD (lost sock dimension). I can understand my wife missing socks – she’s careless about putting things in the hamper. But every year or two I end up sacrificing a sock to the washer or dryer. (Do we really know which machine eats the sock? We blame the dryer because it’s missing when we empty it – but are we sure it ever went into the dryer?)
When I was a kid, I loved Bill Cosby’s bit about the kids lifting manhole covers and getting hernias…then freaking out their mothers with “hey ma, look at this!” Of course, after I had a major hernia drama…
Nah, it’s still funny, as is Weird Al’s “Living with a Hernia.” As the late philosopher said, “If we couldn’t laugh, we would all go insane…”
Yes! It is almost always the WASHER. Socks are small enough to be sucked out via the drain pump. Though I have serviced dryers that have shredded or otherwise eaten socks (and other parts of clothing) due to damage or age. Socks also fall between the wash basket and the machine’s shell and don’t necessarily make it as far as the floor. That typically happens when you try to shove all your laundry into the machine at once and/or overload it. (I used to do in-home warranty appliance repair for the big companies.) And yes… it is very embarrassing for everyone involved when you are pulling people’s intimates out of the machine when servicing it.

Hope they have medical coverage for hernias.

My washer and dryer must hate socks. To date, I have never had one disappear. I wonder if aliens built my appliances?
