I heard people talking about it many times, and I heard jokes about it, but I never heard a good answer: what happens to socks that get lost in the laundry? where do they go?
If a sock goes into the washing machine, it will get out of the washing machine. It can't go anywhere. When I lose a sock in the washing machine, I always find out in the end that it never got there in the first place. They have nowhere to go once you put them in the drum.
It isn't the washing machine that eats socks, it's the dryer and
if you keep a "lost sock" box, you will find socks only get separated, not lost
