Time Traveler's FAQ: Sock Paradox Edition
Sock Paradox: A Brief Explanation
The Sock Paradox is a phenomenon where a time traveler's socks go missing in the timestream, only to reappear in an alternate timeline. This is not a problem, per se, but rather a delightful consequence of time travel.
Q: What are the risks of time traveling with socks?
A: The risks are minimal, but do include: 1) Sock loss, 2) Temporal disorientation, 3) Unpredictable footwear choices in the past.
Q: Can I travel with my favorite socks?
A: We recommend against it. Your favorite socks may become your favorite socks in a past life, but they will not be your favorite in the present. Trust us, it's for the best.
Q: Can I travel with socks from different eras?
A: Why not? The thrill of experiencing the past with a pair of 1980s acid-washed socks is unmatched. Just be aware that they may not be as comfortable as you think.
Q: How do I deal with the Sock Paradox?
A: Deal with it. You'll get used to it. Or, you know, just buy more socks.
Q: Can I travel with socks made of sentient materials?
A: Ha! You're thinking of those fancy new-fangled socks from the future. Listen, those things are trouble. Just stick with the tried-and-true, non-sentient socks. Trust us, it's for the best.
Q: Can I travel with socks that are exactly 37.5% cotton, 37.5% polyester, and 25% magic?
A: Don't even get us started on those socks. They're the bane of our existence. Just stick with plain old socks, or risk facing a fate worse than the Sock Paradox: Sock-induced temporal madness.
