Title: A successful mismatch?
Post by: Merla on May 09, 2005, 01:13:48 PM: odd ball socks (http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/05/09/miss.match/)

This company is marketing mismatch socks that are sold in 3 or 7 packs. I don't know how I feel about that. I go crazy when I lose a sock. I usually use the mate as a dust rag before tossing it out. Some crazy relatives of mine use them as toilet paper. :blink:

Oh and my friend Nikki wore one white sock with bats all over it and one red sock with Winnie the Pooh on it yesterday. That's like eight kinds of mismatched right there.

Seriously, all my socks look alike. What guy wears socks other than black or white? Aside from the Queer Eye Guys.

Giles from Buffy? Actually all those stuffy British-type guys. They're always wearing them ugly plaid argile socks with pants that stop halfway up their shin when they sit.
