Invent a plausible conspiracy theory about something mundane

The prompt
Invent a completely fictional but internally consistent conspiracy theory about something mundane and low-stakes: mundane_subject (e.g. why office thermostats are always wrong, why one sock always disappears in the laundry). Rules: it must be clearly, obviously fictional and silly, never mimic real conspiracy theories or target real people, organizations, or actual events. Structure it like a true-crime documentary breakdown: an ominous opening claim, three pieces of "evidence" that build on each other with mock-serious logic, one deliberately absurd leap in reasoning presented completely straight-faced, a fake named source ("a person familiar with the matter") for comedic effect, and a closing line that winks at the audience without fully breaking the bit. Keep the whole thing under 300 words and genuinely funny, not just weird.

Example output
On the mystery of the missing laundry sock, the piece opens: "For decades, we've been told it's static cling. The truth is far more coordinated." Evidence builds mock-seriously: sock disappearances cluster suspiciously around laundromat renovation cycles, missing socks are disproportionately the left foot according to "internal surveys," and dryer lint composition allegedly spikes in cotton fiber right after a disappearance, as if something is being manufactured from the evidence. The absurd leap, delivered totally straight: dryers are secretly building a single, enormous sock somewhere inside the machine's housing. A fake quote from "a former appliance repair technician who wished to remain unnamed" backs the claim. It closes: "We reached out to three major dryer manufacturers for comment. None of them denied it fast enough."
