QOTU: Where do the socks go?!

[alianne92]

McGonnagall answered this for you when the Ravenclaw door asked her where vanished objects go

"Into non-being, which is to say, everything."

:-)

[tolkienangel]

Clearly you do not read Discworld books. They are eaten by the Eater of Socks.

[madelinimartini]

I am often lacking socks. This explains EVERYTHING.

[powherpuffable]

YOU WENT TO THE SCENE AESTHETIC?! Kristina seriously please tell me if that's what erin meant by the "tsa guy" did eric or andrew talk to you about your socks?!??!?! hahahah oh my gosh :D they seem to be such BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!!

[ColoradoGal19]

Actually, I am currently wearing mismatched socks right now. Don't I just rock?

[crawkodile]

Also I have a QOTU: If duct tape holds the world together, what holds duct tape together?

[crawkodile]

:O Was that Rocko's Modern Life? I remember that episode! There was like a whole missing sock dimension and sock ninjas and stuff! Good old '90s :)

[EdwardElricaintshort]

OK, Here's my QOTU: Where IS Waldo?

[coolstream1]

Socks are actually water soluble.

[dragonfire2323]

Love you, Kristina! Everyone knows that the missing socks go to the "hose-zone" layer. Lol! Aptly named after the original "missing persons" of the laundry realm.....pantyhose.

[Swimming4Peace13]

Life is too short to wear matching socks.

[quidditchcapn10]

my mom has a pile that sits on our couch called "socks without friends" and they stay there until about three weeks after the laundry has been done. Then they are thrown away, you should do that Kristina lol

[evolvingboard]

I can't even remember ever wearing matching socks on a day to day basis, sometimes I'll wear matching socks if I happen to see them both at the same time, but usually that is not the case.

[lanush22]

it goes to a special sock farm...

[7bethg]

When I was about ten I completely gave up on wearing matching socks. I didn't pair them, just put them in the draw and grabbed two random ones. I haven't gone back to pairs since. It drives my mother crazy...

[dolphin64575]

I have a box of orphaned socks I really need to go through and see if any of them match yet...

[AlmostRelly]

I blame the borrowers.

[kenzietheterrible]

This is not as much of a problem for me. I can never manage to wear a pair of matching socks, anyway. Sometimes the pairs are as weird as argyle and polka dot.

[puppysfurme]

I always wear mismatched socks. Every day, my socks coordinate, but they don't match. It isn't because I've lost the socks' mates, it's just that I don't like wearing matching socks. So I never have this problem, because I don't care if a sock has gone missing. Is that weird? A lot of people think it's weird, but that's just how I like to wear my socks.

[evaisepicful]

I actually got a set of three sock pairs: two pink socks, three green socks, and one blue sock.

[CharlineLikesC]

Solution: I have got a bag where all the socks go in (only seperated by color) and then I just put the bag into the washing mashine and wash them with the bag - way less sock losses since then.

[iamacatspy]

There's a brand called LittleMissMatched that sell socks in pairs of three socks that are all different.

[grife3000]

But not a real green sock, that's cruel.

[NicoleCorp77]

Wasn't that Grover's World?

[iKidForever]

They had secret society sock stealing club thing on Arthur one time if that's what ur trying to say?

[zombiesrule2323]

I hate matching socks

[MrsJasperHale08]

I'm currently wearing mismatched socks. ^_^ actually most days I wear mismatched socks because I have lost the pairs to almost all of them XD

[BOttlepOp20]

lol great video =)

[torntreasure]

This is why I refuse to wear matching socks. I literally just stopped matching my socks a long time ago. Today I am wearing one white one with fluorescent hearts ankle length and one gray one with pandas calf length.

[rainbowbubblesXD]

I always mismatch socks, because my socks are kind of all in one pile of orphans and im too lazy to find matches... i usually make them similar though, like from the same pack.

[SweetAsAStrawberry]

my question of the universe: Why do women generally cry more than men?

[hollium]

@SweetAsAStrawberry because patriarchy dictates that it is acceptable for women to express themselves emotionally whilst men are taught by the world to 'man up 'stop being a pussy' 'stop being a bitch' and suchlike, which leads to a lot of bottled emotions and unhealthy emotional relationships. I hope that answered your question :)

[TheRaquelephant]

@hollium Marry me?

[hollium]

@TheRaquelephant I'm afraid I'm spoken for :( otherwise...

[wmg2289]

As a team building activity, all my RA friends exchanged one sock from a pair and then you had a special mix-match pair that reminds you of your "sock-partner". LOL. :)

[wmg2289]

I thought the dryer ate the socks.

[hoadlck]

Interesting... I find if very interesting that you did not really answer the question. This proves that you are part of the secret society that steals socks for some nefarious purpose! Ha! You have been revealed!

[Liisike123]

I'm so angry I have like 7-8 pairs of mismatched black socks that can still be distinguished from one another when you look closely. I just can't make them a pair. Where are the other socks : C???? And a lot of my other socks are also gone. I don't want to throw the pairless socks away in case I find them in the future.

[genericnerdyusername]

@Liisike123 7-8 PAIRS of mismatched black socks? Is that possible? ;)

[allshalldelight]

I always mixmatch my socks....

[Hillberryify]

it ticks my mom off when I wear mismatched socks.

[superiorjello]

When you wear mismatched socks, you are bi-socksual.

[CountryGirlColby]

If you could determine what time period you could live in in exception of the present, what time period would you live in? This actually takes a lot of thought when you have to take in certain things. Like if you wanted to be a Lady in the dark ages there would be the plague and etc.

[polymath614]

you should be like Matthew Gray Gubler and never ware matching socks

[preistnshaman]

Silly Kristina! Those people that take socks are called Borrowers! 

[ntcssj]

I've worn mis-matching socks for maybe over 5 years, it's kinda my thing, so I don't have as much of a problem with it. My socks just rip, which sucks! Especially when it happens to my favourite pairs!

[kneesox4ever]

Does anyone else feel that the norm of sock wearing IS wearing them mismatched?

[MoFanz]

Will Erinn be on Job Hunters?

[ssbfan2]

before finishing it, it goes in the dryer

[CorgiBarks]

rocko's modern life had a episode about where the socks go. (:

[rweasley103]

I never where the same socks it takes to long to organize them

[stationarywanderer8]

Most people I know wear mismatched socks. I am actually kind of unique at my school because I wear matching socks. I don't really understand it...

[JJ174000000]

It was South Park

[MaggieMcCarthy]

I'm wearing mismatched socks right now. I prefer mismatched socks, it's more fun that way. Plus I wear boots every day so it's like my little secret.

[animagigirl]

I remember in a 'Arthur' episode their dogs would steal socks, and created an underground society...... they would take only one out of a pair.

[paulmccartneyrocks]

@animagigirl I remember that! They had a black market where they traded socks. Man, I loved that show. Still do.

[crankdathits]

I don't particularly like Liz's theories in these videos. I feel like she's trying too hard to make it funny & it's not...

[RachinaWimmer]

I haven't worn matching socks in my entire life, my parents raised me well.

[imkluu]

eygo to the planet Arghyl

[MrChillinwithdillon]

I actually just had a repairman over to fix my washing machine. Turns out that your lost socks just get stuck the drain pump. I blamed house elfs all time.

[heatherblack2002]

I don't remember the last time I wore matching socks :/

[xlovelinks]

hey, if anybody could help with my fundrasing for my youth group sleep out tomorrow night, to raise money for the local homeless charity it would be much appreciated- anything big or small would be appreciated! please spread it around(: x

dft(dot)ba/-1G4J

[blynninja]

Most people I know don't even wear matching socks, they just grab two and put them on. Partly because they tend to lose the matches anyway.

[Gryffindor004]

QOTU: EITHER: 1) Why are the earphones always tangled? Or 2) Why is the nutella always gone?

[ThatPotterTribute7]

The Socks go to the Elfs so that way they can be free!:D

[DigitalCable]

Perhaps a bit off topic but close enough: when I was a little kid I loved new socks so much I would dream about being rich so that I could wear new socks everyday and just throw away the previous days. Now that I'm older I see just how attainable that dream is.

[jenkatclaire]

There's actually a gap between the drum, the door and the outer shell of the machine. So the spinning of the drum sometimes means they get caught and lost inside the machine... True story.

[snowpixie15]

Where did my other sock go? Checked the dryer but I don't know...

look up "Sole Mate" by Ryan Higa and Victor King! :)

[allisonwonderrand]

My socks end up in my dog's stomach, and then the backyard. True story.

[pinksparkleprincess9]

same thing as bobby pins!

[NicholeTaylorPatrick]

Here is like the question...

People say you are what you eat so are cannibals the only real people

[PeetaLovesKatniss]

Have you read the underland chronicles? its by the author or Hunger Games, and the main character finds the entrance to the world in his laundry room behind the washer. its a great series. this video made me think of it :)

[anything0everything]

i never wear matching socks! i enjoy being creative with my sock wearing...

[IVlogBecauseICare]

I have this theory that the spinning motion opens up a portal to another dimension, but it's not strong enough to open one big enough for all of your clothes or even something like a t-shirt. The only thing that can fit is a single sock, and then the portal closes again.

[jaredmillion]

According to Dr. Ari Berk, goblins steal socks. They also make your shower go cold and blow out your candles. Pesky critters!

[absolutemae]

what if the dryer didn't take a sock, but actually gave us an extra sock D:

[pidgeonfish]

I never match my socks. I just grab the first two I see and go. =] I think it's kind of nice to look down and see two different colors/patterns.

[LikeSoTotallyRandom]

I too keep my washer and dryer in the basement. It suddenly seems odd that I wash my clothes in the grossest place in the house.

[homelessxcat]

Socks get eaten by the washing machine. No, really! My washing machine get clogged and started leaking and we discovered mushy black remains in the workings of the machine. I always use a wash bag now to keep my socks from getting lost behind the drum of the washer.

[JMagner92]

Geeez does no one remember halloween town 2? They all go to Gord's house. Duh

[TheVlogPrincessE]

There is a store at downtown Disney that is called little miss matched and they sell socks in packs of three (not three pairs three socks) and none of them match

[ISwishAndFlick]

I don't match my socks so I never know if one goes missing lol

[Livasaur]

I just wear odd socks. it makes me feel zainy and exciting :L

[babywasabi93]

I only wear odd socks, it's by far the best option :)

[ilovesharpiepens]

I don't like wearing socks all the time, but my feet get really cold so I have to, when I do I tend to wear odd socks anyway :P

[cullendroid1]

I think I saw that on "Hey Artuhur!" when I was little

[SnoWhiteSally]

Socks go to the same place as missing pens...

[sammylovesparis]

socks go in the plastic thing behind the door of the washing machine

[SparklesGoddess]

I wrote a story about this in like 7th grade!! Here's what happens. We all have little elves living under our floorboards. They're all bald, so their heads get cold. To fix this problem, the elves steal our socks and wear them on their heads.

[dabinxta]

Isn't it obvious? Your feet EAT your socks while you wear them!?

[amyevekeegan]

Finding six socks in your footie pyjamas ahahhaha.

[issymarcantonio]

I always wear odd socks anyway because i have lots one of the socks from every single pair i own.

[vicofour]

Itsnotproper always has the best ideas.

Who's up for donuts ?

[SeahorseShimmer]

I buy packs with the multiple pairs of the same sock... and now I don't have this problem.

[JHillLife]

This was my question FUCK YES THANK YOU KRISTINA!!!!!!

[xxMandiFacexx]

Around here, most people don't wear matching socks...you can by a pack of 6 socks, and not one match completely.

[kittygurl212]

I always heard there was this space in the dryer that socks fell into when they were drying. But it's just some old wives' tale.

I DEMAND TO KNOW FOR QOTU: WHICH CAME FIRST, THE CHICKEN OR THE EGG!!

[kcorrigant]

But where do the bobby pins go?!

[HeatherToothman]

Where'd my fiance's keys go?

[hatorigirl1202]

hehe. 2 different millionaire songs.

[wherearethehouseelfs]

ii already know how to knit my own socks. sadly they still get lost in the wash

[kittygurl212]

@wherearethehouseelfs Well at least you know how to knit another one should its twin get lost :-)

[Nuttynicole11]

Ahhh Barenaked Ladies! I love that song! :)

[NarniaofHogwarts]

I always wear matching socks but when I went to a horse racing college for a month moat of the girls wore odd socks and I didn't get why they were wearing odd socks.

If you are still doing QOTU and answering our questions. What happend to Voldemort's nose?

[SMK5885]

I have two orphans of really adorable socks, one with foxes and one with koalas, and they were too cute to throw out, so I wear them together. It's the only time I don't match, but they're so cute!! I was very sad to lose one of my fox socks.

[JacquilineMist]

The comments with their logical answers make a lot more sense. But I actually hardly wear matching socks. Odd sucks all the way!

[zero1343]

Such a hipster wearing mismatched socks.

I don't have to worry, all mine are black :P

[breanna1824]

i wear odd socks everyday.

[hodgepodgemagic]

I haven't worn matched socks since I started doing my own laundry and just threw them in the drawer because I was too lazy to match them.

The lost ones clearly go to the land where Darkness lives, but Pajama Sam is too old to get them for us now.

[AdamShocker]

I wear odd socks, solves everything.

[leannibabez]

What is the need to wear matching socks? If society would accept the fact that we could wear odd socks then this problem goes away!! :-P x

[iamavet]

Sock Monster-Urban Dictionary

Currently there is a research program to capture one and study its life cycle to provide some relief. The only known fact is sock monster numbers are proportional the number of people in residence at one location.

1 person = 1 monster, rare sock predation, victim is able to carry on normal life

2 persons = 2 monsters, infreqent predation

3 persons = 3 monsters, increased predation, victims are rarely able to find socks

4 persons = 4 monsters, no known cure

[jbear0000]

I never wear socks, in fact I don't even own any so this isn't a problem for me.

[djmcdtwo]

1 get socks

2 ?????????

3 profit

[areyno7]

The socks get lost in the washing machine. The go in between the barrel that holds the clothes and the rest of the machine. Because I've had to pull mine out before.

[12345aaron10]

The void that's where they go

[asifff]

I used to work at an electronics store that fixed washing machines and quite often the problem was a sock stuck in some part of the machine but most of them get pumped out through the drain. If you want to avoid this put your socks in a washing bag before they go in the machine.

[MisSnowWhite13]

Oh Dobby, you sneaky house elf

[thtrnerd221]

I only wear white socks. I don't have too much of an issue with this until one of my socks gets a hole.

[Litheran]

Socks are like Horcruxes for your feet.

[ammiella]

I actually have like one pair of socks that matches right now the rest are misfits. I wear odd socks pretty much every day, it makes people quite amused and semi horrified. "Gosh gee you're a character!"

[Delaneywill97]

Y U NO LET LIZ TALK!?!?!?!

[TotallyTscopeTV]

Dobby takes them. Obviously.

[PrimaryColoursdotcom]

It's probably Dobby trying to help us see how we need to wear mismatched socks.

[BrandonnLe]

Why does no-one see that Dobby takes the socks..?

[aammaannddaa9]

I never wear matching socks :P

[HillaryRhey]

I have the kb packs from costco and I loose them all the time..... That is officially why I am always wearing different color sock!

[DreamyUnderwood]

They go to the Infinate paralell Universe of single socks ......

[CanIFrenchTheLlama]

One sock per cycle finds Narnia.

[MischeifManaged7]

Proud owner of orphaned socks :)

[coconutnacho]

its the sock eating monster obviously

[raziel972]

Im pretty sure that was from Rockos Modern Life!!

[EEEKProduction]

I already wear mismatched socks:)

[apahin1woot]

Im pretty sure my socks fall into an abyss and then pop up in a sock factory and then get shipped back out.

[Eilishization]

im not sure this is a question of the universe? :/

[kristinahorner]

@Eilishization ....If it's asked, then it is.

[sweetypie000]

they don't go anywhere, they are so small they get attached to other parts of clothing when you pull them out and mostly fall on the floor when you transport the pile from one place to the other.

Luminous pink socks would be easily seen on the floor so would red lacy panties.... mmmmmmmm..... KH

[MuggleBorn1000]

@Veellow101 Full. It's half full.

[belidama]

odd socks are cool xD

[maahreechan]

Also, why is it usually the LEFT sock missing? 

[CannotLiveLying]

@maahreechan aren't socks universal?

[maahreechan]

I remember a show about lost socks as well, but I don't think it was muppet babies...hmmmmm.

[iamnerdworm]

I have a friend, actually, who refuses to wear matching socks.

I can't stand it though. My socks are all different thicknesses and it drives me nuts if one foot is wearing a thinner sock than the other.

[VicMorrowsGhost]

A friends washing machine used to eat clothes. They'd work their way out of the drum during the spin dry and fall inside the machine. They figured it out when they found a pair of jeans half eaten.

[FiddeliK]

I should really use those leftover socks, I don't know why I don't use them. The same applies to socks with holes in them, because I always throw away both socks even though one of them is potentially a really good sock.

[Lozzzaaa55]

Washing machines need there seperate section for just socks!

[jesusfreak34988]

IM thinking in all honesty ...the socks get sucked out the water drain or something maybe

[LukeySpring]

second....

[n00bologist]

first
