Some theories attempt to explain the mysteries of the universe. Others focus on more pressing questions, such as where all the missing socks have gone.
This light-hearted poetic response was inspired by a post by Khadija Shabbir on August 14th.

“My One Sock Theory”
All the single missing socks
are being siphoned off by AI
There is only one “I” in AI
and there are trillions
of AI guys zooming around;
so all the single “I” guys,
in that infinite AI world,
need a sock to wear,
for every stressed-out single Black “I”—
especially when stepping into
the cold, deep theories
about the mysterious Black-holes.
For now, the lone sock keeps its secrets. The evidence has been found. The mystery remains.

I believe that the missing socks are turned into Tupperware lids that don’t fit any of the containers in your kitchen.

There’s always a hope the container will reappear but they never do. I bit the bullet a while ago and tossed them out. So far a container hasn’t emerged

i think, the belief of an, invisible blackhole that sucks in only ONE of each sock is more likely…
