My theory is that the machine actually creates a new sock from all the bits of cotton that come off the existing ones

If only!

For me it is only a subtractive difference rather than an additive difference. I go from 12 pair to 11.5, the 11, then 10.5…
Never, or at least so rarely as to be a statistical anomaly, does it go in the other direction.

Sure I occasionally find a sock behind my mattress when I over exuberantly dump my basket, but that is like once in every 3-5 yrs. (I never am overly exuberant when doing laundry. *shrugs)

Nope—a sock goes out, a random Tupperware lid pops up in the cupboard.

A thought I had yesterday, while watching the news: How to daily watch B-movies and horrors for free, legally?
Exactly...

Sounds sort of familiar...

The life cycle of ratchet screwdriver fruit it quite interesting. Once picked it needs a dark dusty drawer in which it can lie undisturbed for years. Then one night it suddenly hatches, discards its outer skin which crumbles into dust, and emerges as a totally unidentifiable little metal object with flanges at both ends and a sort of ridge and a sort of hole for a screw. This, when found, will get thrown away. No one knows what it is supposed to gain from this. Nature, in her infinite wisdom, is presumably working on it.

Yeah, the socks disappear... but random remote controls appear in their place.
It's a zero sum game.


edit: aww, shucks! @Robin L beat me to it, thematically.
