Q: Where do the socks go when they vanish from the rest of your laundry on wash day?
A: A highly unstable aboriginal aberrational transdimensional vortex develops in the cyclonic flux of the high temperature rotating electrostatic whirlpool that so often accompanies the dihydrogen oxide removal phase of the de-soilization of the apparel. This transdimensional vortex is especially powerful when enhanced by the static charge that surrounds certain synthetic materials, such as polyester.
Thus, if one stares closely through the glass on a laundromat dryer they may indeed observe certain small podiatric garments vanish from reality as we know it and arrive in another dimensional reality far beyond our ability to comprehend or perceive. That is the reason there is so little polyester left in society today.
Using this transdimensional vortex energy it is possible to travel to other realities. I have been there and back many times. One must cover themselves in polyester from head to toe and climb into a laundromat dryer while sucking on a nine volt battery. The battery helps amplify the charge so you can leave reality more quickly.
Elvis continues to wear too much polyester and that is why he has so much trouble staying in this reality.
Some people have been known to jump out of this reality just by wearing a polyester shirt while stroking a cat. This can be very dangerous, so I don't advise anyone to do it outside of a laboratory.
