Yes, this isn't exactly TV related, but does anyone know how you always seem to end up with one from a pair?

As Stewart Lee once explained, they get stuck in the ridges of washing machines. There is no sock elf involved.

Hey! Stop copying bits of my IP address, or people will start saying that we are the same person, and thus the same person as Steven and Sheep, which would make us all the same person as Justin and Jason, and annoy all the forumgoers who cry when we talk about things being better on the radio, then someone will accuse us of being The Corpses, then someone will come on and say IDENATS! IDEANTS! etc...

They quite often get wedged at the front of the drum, below the seal. In my experience, anyway.
But underpants gnomes are another thing entirely...

Wellthat's an easy one Jake. Underpants go towards helping Ailie develop new leisure activities.

Actually, the gnomes don't know what to do with the pants. Phase 1 - collect underpants. Phase 2 -?. Phase 3 - profit. That's their plan.
Anyone know where that's from? I do.

Kinder, I've only ever needed one pair of pants for Pants On A Stick and have never had to steal any.
...which brings us no further forward in establishing exactly *where* they go...

There's nothing wrong with where it's from. I like it, and have the first three series on video. It's quality.
