Leaving a sock behind after a bad hook-up because it's more important to get out in a hurry than to keep searching for the other sock.

When you lose a sock in the washer or dryer, implying (in a joking manner) that there's some sort of supernatural agency to the phenomenon of losing socks.

When a member of a friend group uses their sock to clean up a spilled substance or for any other use a sock can be used for. The important part is that someone gives up a sock. It is sometimes used to counter act a party foul.
