The Sock-eating-monsters, also known as SEMs for short, are a mysterious and ancient species known for their unique ability to devour socks with reckless abandon. Their history dates back to the early days of laundry, when humans were still figuring out how to wash clothes without using a river.
Little is known about the SEMs' origins, but it's said that they first appeared in the caves of rural Wales around 200 AD. From there, they spread to other parts of Europe, becoming a nuisance to medieval laundresses everywhere.
Today, SEMs can be found in every corner of the world, from the depths of the Amazon jungle to the highest peaks of the Himalayas. They're a testament to the power of evolution and the never-ending quest for clean socks.
