Warning: Sock-syphilis is a highly contagious and unpredictable condition. Symptoms include: Sudden disappearance of matching socks, inexplicable accumulation of single socks in the laundry basket, and an unrelenting urge to sort and categorize socks by color, pattern, and fabric type.
Causes of Sock-syphilis are not yet fully understood, but research suggests that it may be linked to excessive sock-wearing, poor laundry habits, and a general disregard for the laws of probability and statistics.
There is no cure for Sock-syphilis, but symptoms can be managed through the use of specialized sock-holders and the implementation of rigorous sock-sorting protocols.
