I match them up, although lately I've been tempted to throw out all of the non-Nike ones, to make it easier to sort

actually though, sometimes I'm too lazy to match them after washing, so I throw all of the clean ones in a laundry hamper and sort them as I need them. Once I get to ~10 pairs left I sort n' fold and stuff in the drawer.

Well the music is not as loud as it use to be. But i'm the stock manager so i work back so i can change the music n listen to whatever i want but when i have to go to the sales floor i always contemplate shoving a pen in my ears so i don't have to hear the music anymore.

i just buy the same brand/style sock so there is no need to match them up...

if they get a hole or get dirty, they get trashed/replaced so they all for the most part pair up right out of the laundry basket

call me lazy but id say im just smarter then you (sock folders)

about the most ill do is separate the ankle socks from the others... but even that is optional

I match and fold. That way I don't have to be fully awake when I get dressed.

Thumbs up

definitely match/fold. separate drawers for work socks (black dress socks) and weekend/evening socks (tube socks/sport socks,etc)

When I first read that I thought you said you were the Sock Manager. I was thinking Dang they have a Manager specific for Socks?

What the hell? You don't fold your socks together? I fold mine into each other, I use the elastic from the sock to hold them together.

My socks differ from brands so they are not all the same, if I didn't keep them together it would mean that I'd be wearing unmatched socks and it would be annoying to look through the bin to find socks that match

why waste time on something that doesn't matter, just grab two socks n go. as long as it's not an ankle sock and a taller sock then no big deal. seriously who is gonna see your socks when you are out?

i like to call it "the american way"

Hip-trendy-guy: "hey man see my new AF jeans???"
not-so-hip-guy: "dude, there's holes in your jeans, i can see your junk"
Hip-trendy-guy: "i know man! that's the point!!!!"
not-so-hip-guy: "wait what's the point?"


^^possible evidence that AF jeans are for homosexuals????????
