| | A BRAND NEW PAIR OF SOCKS EVERYDAYPage 1 of 1 | I've just read a profile where the gentleman in question states that he always wears a brand new pair of socks everyday. Now I thought this was rather impressive. However, in hindsight this must work out extremely expensive. Im not sure I could do this with my pants, because I'm sure this would bankrupt me ...
Does anyone else do this .. or do you think this man is a freak .. ? | |

Posted: 1/3/2010 5:32:24 AM | Erm, i change my socks every day...
I think if i was really rich (like a millionaire) i would have new socks every day. It would save me from losing sock after sock and doing what i do which is usually ending up wearing one trainer sock and one of my sons school socks.
So i vote that this man is not a freak just a bit either weird or rich. | |

Unless of course theres lots of women sock knitters out there who'll oblige with sending socks to those with profiles that request them. Find seven sock knitters who can knit a pair a week and you're in luck.
Well I hope they dont just end up in the bin, what a waste!
Maybe they recycle them .... cut the feet off and you've got yourself a pair of wrist warmers ....... if you've got really big feet and stretchy socks you have 2 balaclavas .... the uses for discarded socks is endless .....  | |

So would most people (I would hope), but that's not exactly the same as wearing a brand new pair every day - which is most definitely more than a bit weird

Posted: 1/3/2010 9:46:44 AM | oh dear, tis most likely the lack of wearing socks that has caused me to make such a social gaffe in my punctuation. my humble apologies are therefore tendered and shall immediately resort to wearing the afore mentioned articles  | |

Posted: 1/3/2010 9:58:11 AM | Indeed, perhaps this guy does not wear the socks on his feat 
Joking aside it is rather disturbing, I mean think of the carbon footprint and those socks which go to waste.
Perhaps he is some sort of "condition" whereby socks are useless once worn?

Posted: 1/3/2010 11:21:47 AM | A new pair of sock every day IS actually do-able. Primark sell 5 pairs for £2, so he would spend £10 per month max in that case...and I can fritter more than that on lunch a drink and a mag/paper in one day at work!
I think real luxury would be clean/new sheets on the bed every day...obviously I wouldnt be the one washing them or putting them on...oooooo I can smell it now... | |

Posted: 1/5/2010 6:02:56 AM | buying a new pair of socks for every day wouldn't cost any more than smoking so you wouldn't have to be rich
but its a shocking waste | |

Posted: 1/5/2010 6:11:06 AM | Why would you put that on your profile? Clean socks and underwear everyday should be a given, it doesn't need to be brand new and to have it on your profile that it is, smacks of sort of obsessive compulsive disorder to me. It would set alarm bells of for me to read that and certainly not impressive.
It is more lazy and lack of regard for money and sense. | |

Posted: 1/5/2010 6:20:27 AM | | I watched a programme on the Beckhams once where David admitted only wearing his trainers once (not his football boots but goey outy trainers) he said it made him popular with his mates who have the same foot size. | |

Posted: 1/5/2010 6:26:23 AM | | David Beckham has girly size 9 feet, not worth being friends with then. I am slightly annoyed that I know his foot size though and I hope I remember it from the time of his metatarsal injury pre World Cup! | |

Posted: 1/5/2010 7:25:46 AM | Are you doing a spot of bragging Pud? Remind me what they say about men with big feet?
One of my best mates has size 9 feet, despite being 6foot she hates it, when we were in NY she refused to try on or ask for shoes as in the States there size is 2 up from ours so she would have needed an 11
Erm, what was the question, new socks, no i dont like new ones, new ones give me terrible toe fluff, i like them after they have been washed a few times. | |

Posted: 1/5/2010 2:57:05 PM | | By "brand new" he probably means clean (but can't imagine why he needs to mention that in his profile!). Nobody in their right mind throws out a pair of socks after only wearing them once! | |
