Was looking through my wardrobe the other day, looking for a pair of socks, and came across the usual sock that had lost it's partner, and it got me thinking. In South Africa we have a population of about 50+ million, with approx 25 million men. Now if everyone of us has as many divorced socks in their sock draw as I have then we can assume that each person loses at least 4 socks a year, so that means 100 millon socks a year go missing!! Where the fuck are they?
Lets extrapulate that out, assuming the population of the USA is 300 million, with 150 million men, and that each lose four socks a year, that is 600 million socks a year that get lost!!
Between South Africa and the US we lose 700 million socks every year.. 1.9 million socks everyday of the year.. can anyone imagine how big a pile of 700 million socks is?
Where do the buggers hide?
I am perplexed!
