I was livid when Erin said I had bland socks yesterday.
Bland, my arse.
Bland request
They’re in the washing bin at home.
I’m wearing blood relatives of them now.
please, over your feet, nothing else saps
sounds like i want to see you naked bar these socks now
Yesterday’s had maybe more, some grey and some pink. Same pattern.
I think it’s because they’re not dayglo or featuring a cartoon character.
And thank you.
They’re not bland! They have a nice geometric pattern.
For years I used to solely* wear black socks with no pattern. However (a) they were surprisingly difficult to pair and (b) I discovered the joy of coloured and patterned socks
Difficult to pair?
Mate, the best thing about plain black socks if that it doesn’t matter how you pair them. They all go together!
Sell out.
re: pairing all you do is when you need to buy a couple of pairs of new socks, just get rid of the lot and buy, what, a dozen new pairs of the same black ones. Pairing problems - gone.
Nothing but pure, hard black socks for me. Nothing. Even annoyed that these latest ones have ‘Pringle’ on the side tbf.
I’ve slowly got rid of all my plain socks.
Life’s too short to be wearing socks that don’t give me joy.
There are many things I could call that sock but bland is not one of them
Sounds like communism to me, Geoff.
Yeah but: some have a different elasticy bit at the top, some are older and slightly greyed / starchy… I could always tell an “odd” pair.
I’m currently wearing a pair of burgundy M&S socks. Bit pricey but rather comfortable.
Erin’s going to feel so chastised when I show her this thread.
I’m seeing that as a dark grape. I guess the lighting and the camera are changing them.
Unless your sock is another one of those gold/blue dress conundrums.

FUNNY YOU SHOULD ASK!!
