I've got a few pairs of socks with a day of the week on them. Sometimes I like to confuse people and wear "wednesdays" socks on thursday.

(Glad I got that off my chest!)

:rotfl: sometimes wishful thinking.... lol

ahhhhh but did you wear an odd pair

Oh yes. As was the fashion at the time.

(I also had shoes with flourescent laces, but that's a bit off topic)

why thankyou SockMeister Steve!

Have to confess, I do feel I'm a bit of a sockophobe.

I've always hated seeing women wear ankle socks, trainers and a skirt. As a child, I used to detest being sent to school in ankle socks, shoes and a skirt. I felt as if my legs were shortened by the whole 'look'.:rotfl:

Whenever I see the opening scene of Working Girl, I want to scream at Melanie Griffiths as she walks to work - get those bloody ankle socks off - wear the trainers, yes, but stop the whole sock thing!:eek:

lol i went through the same trauma... that and the really long white socks in winter..

suffice to say i don't own a single sock... please don't make me wear them.. :rotfl:

No I'm strictly against forced sock-wearing. Just say no.

Just for you Meyore.

In light of a recent thread about pointless threads...

How many pairs of socks do you all have? What colours are they? Don't you get annoyed when you can only find one out of a particular pair of socks?

But most importantly...

How have socks helped you on your quest to become debt-free?

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: lLaughing so much can't answer your question. Teach your family to wear odd socks, so save money. Buy all the males basic black socks who cares who wears whose!:rotfl: :rotfl: :T

Sharing socks? :eek: Surely there'd be some hygiene issue there!

:rotfl: I meant once I had took the trouble to wash, dry and attempt to pair them up. The only way I can wash hubby's is to grab a towel and sort of bundle the socks up and shake into the machine without actually touching them:eek: cos they stink the bedroom out:rotfl:

I have many socks! Some have friends.....some do not, they wander around the washing basket like a horse that's lost it's rider. Sometimes I hear them cry at night.
