When a socknapper is caught in the act, they may experience a range of emotions: shock, anger, denial, and eventually, acceptance. This cycle of emotions can be likened to the five stages of grief.
The Socknapper's Denial Stage: "No, I'm not a socknapper! I'm just... uh... folding laundry for a friend."
The Socknapper's Anger Stage: "You can't prove it! You can't prove I'm a socknapper!"
The Socknapper's Bargaining Stage: "If I promise to do extra loads for a month, can I just get off the hook?"
The Socknapper's Depression Stage: "I've lost all sense of identity, purpose, and clean socks."
The Socknapper's Acceptance Stage: "Fine, I'm a socknapper. Can I have my Socknapper's Club membership card now?"
