I just don't understand it..............

2 go into the washer, and only 1 comes out....

I always make sure that the socks go into the washer in pairs but on occasions only 1 comes out, does my washer eat them??? is there some magic portal in my washing machine for socks to move on to another world???

Does anyone have an answer to this?? would be great to know
Isn't that a Whitney Houston song?

The answer, my friend, is at exactly 5 mins into Eddie Izzard's "Unrepeatable".

As this is a family forum, I won't link to it here - there's lots of naughty language. You need to go to YouTube and look at video v=TwtQQXG8S44
(just look at any old rubbish then replace everything after the question mark with v=TwtQQXG8S44 - if you don't like Eddie, just press the pause button, wait for about two-thirds of the video to buffer, then move the playback marker to just under halfway).
