    socks...

    there's nothing better than brand new socks. once my .22lr and cow skin rug investments mature, I plan to wear brand new socks every day and donate the others to goodwill

    but in the mean time, I buy new socks every couple/few months... at least 6 pair. I buy the same exact socks every time. I only OWN that one particular brand/style.

    My wife thought I was crazy when I started on my quest to only have ONE sock brand/style in my arsenal. It's been this way for about a year or so.

    When the elastic on mine get over about 25% wider than a fresh one, they go in the trash.

    I was reminded of my brilliance earlier when I was on the phone with a buddy, and he had a side bar with his wife and said, "If I can't find a fucking matching pair of socks, I'm going to burn this fucking house down."

    I had a come to jesus talk with him about going to a single-sock system. When I do laundry, I don't have to waste a moment of my ever-shorter life trying to match up socks. I think he's on the path now.

    My wife, on the other hand, I don't think owns two pair of socks that are identical. I think she might be retarded. She did marry me, so I guess that kinda makes sense

      I slowly began eliminating socks a few years ago down to a single brand. They keep fucking with me and changing them though.

        I've been on this path for a couple years. Recently I've been having trouble finding my chosen sock, so I'm about to have to switch.

          Clarks socks have a lifetime warranty FWIW.

          Once they show signs of wear you can take them back up there and get a fresh pair free.

            thankfully they haven't changed mine in a good while. CE Schmidt boot socks with elastic support around the main part of the foot. They don't get whored out and shimmy down and bunch up around your foot.

              I weep for you... if it ever comes to that, I'm just throwing everything out and starting over with a fresh 30 pair

                I'm going to do some searching this weekend, but if it has to happen, it has to happen.

                    30 pair? Damn.. Do you wear multiple pairs in a day, or just not do laundry very often?

                      I did this a decade ago. It was liberating to throw away all those godawful three stripe knee-highs I'd been rocking since elementary school.

                      All I have now are cotton, half-calf black gold-toes with good elastic on them. Every six months or so I find a few that are more worn than the others, throw them out, and buy a new pack. I do have a couple of pairs of white running socks for workouts - they're all the same too.

                      Gangster alert: I don't even roll them into pairs - I just dump them in the sock drawer all willy-nilly. Drives my gf batshit crazy.

                          I have a couple pair of "boot socks" and the rest are ankle socks that are all so similar that I wouldn't know if one was mismatched. One of the many reasons my wife is up for sainthood, she has never complained about matching socks.
