I'm sure all of us have a collection of single socks that sit alone in a drawer, waiting for the day that they will be reunited with their mate.

Hopefully, thanks to this tip, losing socks in the wash will be a thing of the past. Now that I know this, I'm never going to lose a sock to the washing-machine monster again.
I'm not sure why, but it just seems that it's one of those chores that never ends.
I think I've been trying to wash and fold the same batch of laundry for two weeks now and there's no end in sight.
It doesn't make any sense! Why does this always happen?!
I'm not a scientist by any means, but I've considered studying black holes to see if they are responsible for stealing my socks.
One Imgur user explained how your socks have been disappearing in the washing machine.
This only applies to front-loaders but it's still good to know nonetheless.
If you put your hand there, you should be able to move the rubber and reveal a compartment.
Usually, the sock will just stay bunched up near the door until the cycle is over. Whenever this has happened to me, the sock is really wet since it didn't go through the spin cycle.
Or as I like to call them, the sock police.
No, you aren't crazy. The washing machine really was eating your socks this whole time!
You know what I absolutely need to find other than matching socks? Millions of lost bobby pins, hair ties and Tupperware lids.
Doesn't this just feel like your life has a whole new meaning?
Besides how annoying it can be to have a collection of solo socks with no mate, you could potentially damage your machine if you aren't cautious.
You can also clip your socks together with a binder clip or safety pin before putting them in the bag.
At least this information makes doing laundry a bit better, right?
And we love warm toes. I mean, who doesn't?!
