“You better not have put all my socks on.”
“I… did NOT… put all your socks on.”
“How many did you put on?”
“Like, two pairs. But I touched all the rest with my feet.”
“…”
“…”
“You need help.”
“…”
“Who DOES that? Gas pumps must end on zero or five, and socks get used ONCE. That’s how it goes.”
“Well, I USED all your socks.”
By Kelly on Oct 21, 2009
Well, yes. Gas pumps MUST end in a zero or five, preferably a zero. Even more preferably, a whole number. If not a whole number, then a multiple of 25 cents.
I’m not at all anal-retentive.
People wear socks more than once? REALLY? I have enough socks to last a month without either wearing a pair more than once or doing laundry.
Perhaps I am obsessive-compulsive. And I like socks. A lot.

I wish my 14 year old son would get in the habit of replacing socks regularly. He will actually get out of the shower and PUT ON SOCKS HE HAS BEEN WEARING FOR 2 DAYS!
Was I that gross whan I was a 14 year old boy?

@John, I’m 23 and I’m that gross… It doesnt phase me lol.
Although I do own like 20 pairs for the same reason as Kelly :)
Main thing I want to know is “Was this TJ fondling Phil’s socks or Phil fondling TJ’s socks? Cause Phil that would just be plain weird. :P

Don’t you understand? Socks for guys are like shoes for women. If I have comfortable clean socks the shoes don’t matter. Besides it’s a thing that is drummed into you at boot camp about clean dry socks.
If you are not careful Phil might just exact revenge on your Jimmy Choo’s

I’m sorry you feel that way about the ad. However, it has been there for months and no one has taken issue with it. If you read the site through a reader, you won’t even see it.

I don’t wear my sock more than once before washing but then again most of my sock don’t make it to a wash. I buy my sock and wear them once and get a hole in where my big toe is… Weirdest thing I’m very anal about keeping my nails trimmed I think it’s discusting but my big toe is curved upward and in one days wear it makes ahole in the sock. Pain in the butt.

Phil is clearly the “gas pump ends on zeros and fives” side of the conversation and TJ is then the sock violator. Because only someone as clever as her would be so devious.
Incidentally, socks may only be reapplied if they have been off for less than five minutes (to get the ball of lint out, trim a nail, etc). More than five minutes = new socks.
