lost sock
Plural: lost socks
People have always joked about the land of lost socks, but this little piece of cloth has actually been there. Where do you think the land of lost socks is, anyway? I mean, is it adjacent to the land of lost shoes and the land of lost pants, or do those lost lands mix it up so that the lost socks are next to the lost gloves, and the lost scarves mingle with the lost pants?
