Here's the most likely explanation. See it was burrito and beer night and the poor underoos couldn't take it anymore and decided to run away

I'm dying of laughter here. Reminds me of when we went to an Orchestra night months ago. I dropped my phone, and there was a single shoe under the seat, right next to my phone :S

ehmaged. Best funniest story yet.Okay, now I can tell a story and you can laugh at me for hours!
Like I've said, I live at one house, my aunt lives at the other on the other side of the farm. It's like a 1/5 maybe 1/4 mile between the houses. We have little trails to the two places we go back and forth all day. One night, my littlest sister Cody (who is living at the other house with her husband) calls and says there is a copperhead in the house. She's not a city slicker, she'd helped me remove snakes before and she knows her snakes. She says it's in the den, lying very still. I rush down there before it disappears into the house so I can catch it or kill it*. I'd grabbed a trashcan to shove it into and a shovel to try to pick it up with. I'd handled a lot of snakes by then, even cooperheads.
I got there and the snake was in was in a heavily shadowed area beside the loveseat. Cody and my aunt were staring at it and said it had not moved. I peered at it from a safe distance and indeed, it was a cooperhead I thought. Right head configuration, thick body, correct colouration. Looked to be a juvie. Because of where it was I decided I would have to kill it lest it get under the furniture and become a large, unseen threat. I took the shovel, Cody and Aunt Oochie both pleading with me to be careful, I crept forward and struck it at the neck. The shovel bounced. The snake did not move.
I realized suddenly that I had just 'killed' a rubber snake.
I went to retreive it and Cody shrieked, "Careful, Becca!" I picked it up and wiggled it at her, laughing. She said, "No f---ing way!" My aunt leaned forward and she too began to laugh.
Thank the powers that be that I rescued my family from the deadly rubber snake! Huzzah to my greatness!
Funnier yet, and this is on Cody: SHE had bought the snake some years back with the intention of scaring OOCHIE. And she did. Probably a decade later. That was one well planned prank, I guess. Years in the making!
*I know I run a sanctuary and I do so love animals, but I will sometime kill venomous snakes if they are near my animals or home. Both Cameron and I have been bitten and several pets have been killed, including my heroic pig Blackie, so I admit: I sorta hate cooperheads.
I have done some amazingly dumb stuff.
I just can't stop laughing after reading all this LOL
Maybe someone was walking "the walk of shame" and just dropped them while walking ( because they were in her purse etc.) and didn't notice.. then at home she would realize "oh I forgot my panties to that house..."
You know I can't remember the last time I put panties in my purse. Probably because I am all thumbs and at checkout while reaching for a wallet out will pop my panties. I would then pass out from embarrassment. I already have a childhood panty experience that was my most embarrassing moment in my whole entire life. So, I know better to put underwear in my purse. Who does that? Do people actually say, "oh gee, better get my keys, gum, credit card and panties." hmmm LOL
