Wearing odd socks...

Seeing someone with odd socks would make me instantly think they were doing it on purpose to be zany, which would annoy me. On the other hand (foot?) it probably just means they're disorganised, lazy or apathetic, any of which would annoy me.

Let's just say you'd be hard-pressed not to annoy me wearing odd socks. :p

When do you look at their socks though?
 
I can only tell which sock was on which foot before they've been washed. After a wash I can't tell...

But I would never wear odd socks. Even though I mainly wear plain black, I can't stand if they don't match (subtle differences).

Me too lol

But not because of the colour, it is because of the feel of it. Unless they are from the same pack that has 3 different colours. But in order to make sure they feel the same, I match them up in terms of colours.

All depends on what part of the sock are odd, usually when I wear odd socks the actual colour of the sock is the same, but its either the toe bit or the top of the sock thats a different colour, something which people wont see in work.

So it's all good :D

I refuse to let my time be drained trying to track down socks that have gone missing or being swallowed by the black sock hole, especially if I am in a rush for work in the morning.
 
I don't care whether I'm not wearing matching socks, infact 50% of the time my socks don't match.
 
I can't wear odd sock, it's just not right. All my socks are black M&S ones with either coloured toes or tops, you know the sort. Even if I've got two pairs the same but different sizes I can't wear one from each pair.

I'm one of those 'everything in its place' people. My wife however is totally incapable of being tidy, which drives me round the bend!
 
Good effort Khan,

I always wear odd socks. It's become the expected thing tbh. Only time they're a pair is if I have Batman or Popeye etc etc socks on.

Yes, I know how that sounds but it raises a giggle with the girls in the office. :)

I had a boss who once got into an argument about odd socks. He maintainted that no-one ever noticed, so he just wore any old socks. His mate said that people would notice, and that he certainly would.

The next time they went to the pub my boss wore odd shoes. His mate didn't notice until he told him at the end of the night.
