Mysteries explained

When I was young, I remember reading a book on the unsolved mysteries of the world. It explained UFOs and extra-sensory perception and the Bermuda Triangle and the Lochness Monster.

It did not explain how laundry always comes out of the dryer with orphaned socks.

Dammit. I feel inadequately equipped or educated to deal with real life.

That is SO true! I think washing machines have a little sock black hole, that sucks one of a pair (never both, just one) into it!

i'm sure it didn't explain why toast always lands butter side down when knocked off a table or why cats always land on their feet when thrown from the same table.

Dammit now I feel like nothing in life has been explained to me.
