A number of years ago there was an in depth study that determined that more disposable pens were produced that could exist on the planet. This was of course conclusive proof that 1) there is life on other planets 2) they write 3) they are too lazy to produce disposable pens.

Over time this hypothesis of extra terrestrial needs for goods we produce has been extended. Scrunchies, tooth paste and book markers all appear to be desirable objects. There is some good proof that these creatures have one foot, hence the missing sock phenomena.

Recently I have observed that these fiends, yes my friends; FIENDS, are become more evil, and possessive.

I live in a small holme on Baker Street (Ooops that slipped out), it is tidy (ish) modern unit and I keep it neat, most of the time. Someone does break in and leave dirty dishes, but that is another story.

Recently I have lost two new paperback books, partially read, a supply of prescription meds ( of use to anyone except a T-woman) and a rather nice very sharp  knife that I pruned bushes, plants and passer-byes in the street, when I was having a psychopathic moment. All as you can tell, harmless essential items. We won't talk about the semtex, that's bound to turn up with a bang.
Do others have these occurrences?  Are the FIENDS getting more daring?

So beware, if you are approached by a one-legged cross-dressing alien holding a sharp knife while reading a book by Jo Nebos, confuse it by asking it if you can borrow a Biro. Then run.

I have two leather belts that came with a full length leather coat, but can only find one.  I had two, and one has just vanished. I mean you don't just leave belts lying around.

Also, as I am living alone, where has my Deep Purple CD gone? It is not in the CD rack, or the car.  I have never loaned it to anyone.  Another  "Mystery of the Sea."

When I was at college learning to make clarinets (long story...) we figured out that somewhere in the cosmos is a planetoid that's simply covered in mile-high piles of tiny little screws. You'd be loosening one, and it'd fly off the instrument - you'd follow it with your eye, and then poof! it would drop through a hyperspace window, never to be seen again.

So they capture poofs and screw them?

That is disturbing

(This is fun only, don't take offence people)

in another dimension, someone is wondering where all the socks, in their dryer, are coming from.

Not to mention all the farts that are manifesting out of nowhere... Yes, we can tell by your expressions that you are all guilty of sending farts into another dimension

Your problem:
Gremlins or poltergeists ...

Or early onset Alzheimers 

Lighters. In my lifetime I bought more than is humanly necessary, but they just vanish. Either the little jerks are chain smokers, or they are actually trying to help protect the health of my lungs.

Either way, it is not appreciated.

They went where your short term memory dare not travel. LOL

Oh dear, I just noticed that one, Watson.

  To some it is socks, to me it is pens and other writing styli.  Others are placed that when I finally use them, the ink had dried in them or they will not draw ink no matter the method used.  That is my arghhh!

There is a planet somewhere in the cosmos that is inhabited by purely biroid lifeforms, it was apparently discovered by former Galactic President Zaphod Beeblebrox - who also had a very successful 2nd-hand biro business..

I always thought things disappeared up my ()()

I gotta stop stuffing things up there. That banana tasted like vanilla scented chocolate though.

Where do things go indeed    Sometimes I'll forget where I've put something and go looking about for it, while I'm looking I'll come across other interesting items that I'd forgotten I had

Sometimes I'll find the item I was looking for and other times I'll just enjoy finding all the other treasures and forget about it 

Ahahaha I don't know how I missed this.

Ugh...I think my house is where all the crap is going. I keep hauling boxes out and it just never ends. I don't even remember my mom having all this stuff, so maybe some of it belongs to you guys here.

The aliens must also have some gamma ray gun that zaps you when you enter a room so that you forget why you went there.

*shakes fist at sky*

Make sure you note where you put your books and pens, and later you will see that this three things (books, pens and notes) will go away when you need them, and appear instantly when you are not looking for them.   i have seen this happen time after time after time ... -your Fiends?

According to an article on Cracked, there is a scientific principle behind this. Something about how your brain stores ideas in compartments by room, and when you move through a doorway your brain wipes the information it thinks it no longer needs. People forget things just by walking through doors in video games apparently.

ROFLMAO!! sorry but they might also be wearing Buzz Lighter boxers and spiked choker and carrying a small handgun (how do you loose that?!?!) this alien might be more dangerous than previously thought.

(I really want to draw this bad boy now....)
