Socks & Shoes... Which Method Do You Use?

[arwalden]

I'm a 'sock-sock' kind of guy myself.

[RevolutionaryActs]

1. I'm a 'sock-sock' kind of girl.

:D

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. Has to be sock-sock then shoe-shoe since I don't wear shoes in the house

I only wear socks or bare feet.

:-)

3. I'm thinkin..

..this HAS to be a reference to the All In The Family episode in which Mike and Gloria argue about being able to hop around in a snowstorm if the house catches fire? :-)

[chicagojoe]

6. It was Archie and Mike arguing.

[didntvote4shrub]

19. No, it wasn't. It was Mike and Gloria.

[Nicole]

22. No, it wasn't. It was Archie & Mike

the same epsisode where Mike & Archie share a room for the night. Mike spills water in the bed & Archie thinks he peed on him.

[chicagojoe]

25. Thank You!!!

[chicagojoe]

23. I beg to differ.

Mike was putting on his shoes and socks, and Archie didn't understand the sock/shoe/sock/shoe method. Mike went on to explain how if the house burned, Archie would be standing outside in just two socks, but Mike would at least be able to hop up and down on one foot and keep his feet dry. I Know My All In The Family, my friend.

28. We have a winner.

Great episode. Mike had that quirk, and Archie had the corner of the blankets folded over so he could ventilate if,.... oh nevermind.

4. Sock-Sock

Shoe-Shoe:hi:

[ET Awful]

5. Gotta go with sock-sock. I spend a lot of time in just my socks at home

They keep my feet warm but don't make 'em sweat like my super warm fleece slippers do.

[Gemini Cat]

7. Left sock, left shoe.

Then, right sock right shoe.
I also hate having bare feet, but that has nothing to do with this poll.

[terrya]

8. Right sock, then left sock. Then right shoe, left shoe.

But you didn't ask for all of that information. :-)

9. It took six years for Bushy to learn the sock then shoe trick

The Dickweed would still be wearing his socks over his cowboy boots if poppy hadn't got him into Yale & Harvard.
Do people really do one sock then a shoe ? okay which pant leg do you put on first ? Left first if you are right handed ?
Do republicans dress themselves ? and who would want to undress a republican ?
This is the most thought provoking poll on DU yet,shit for the rest of the day I am gonna be thinking about shoes & socks and why we put them on the way we do.

10. stocking, stocking, pump, pump.

Not a sex thread. I cannot be held responsible for the English language.

[fluffernutter]

14. lol, yeah, i do that for work too.

and i almost also posted it, but just couldn't do it and erased it :)

[hickman1937]

11. My socks are upstairs in my room,

and my shoes are downstairs, by the door. Sock shoe, sock shoe would involve way more energy than I want to devote to this activity.

[sundog]

12. turn dirty sock inside-out, sock...try to find similar sock which slightly

resembles the other either in texture or color or number of holes :P

just kiddin :7

[fluffernutter]

15. reminds me of my little brother when we were growing up

:D now i remember why i called him Stinky ;)

[fluffernutter]

13. mostly barefoot in the house & yard in warm weather,

but when i do put socks and shoes on, it's always both socks and then both shoes.

[Bat Boy]

16. Shoe - shoe - sock - sock

What are you staring at? Hmmm?

The lizards told me to do it that way so the aliens won't get in through my corns...

[arwalden]

20. You Wear Out A LOT Of Socks That Way... But Your Shoes Always Look Nice!

Clean, shiny, no scuffs. :hi:

[Bat Boy]

24. Damn skippy!

A bit smelly on the inside, but nice and shiny on the outside.

[NightTrain]

17. Been watching ALL IN THE FAMILY, have you?

:hi:

[MikeDuffy]

18. A related more interesting question:

Do you tie a "square" bow knot or a "granny" bow knot?

Most people learned to tie their shoes when they were very young, and never give it a thought even if they have had Boy Scout/Girl Scout/etc knot tying training concerning the proper way to tie a knot between two strings. Consequently, about as many people tie a granny bow knot (which tends to come loose) as tie a square bow knot (which tends to stay tied). Even those who tie a square bow knot may do so only by chance, they could have very easily have learned the other and never thought to examine the knot carefully. (Admission: I realized my shoe tying was via granny bow knots only after having read an article about it, even though I was an avid knot enthusiast from my Boy Scout days).

21. I don't wear socks.

I powder the inside of my shoes, keeps them fresh. Pantyhose for skirts and dresses. no socks with jeans , bare feet at home.

Can this marriage be saved? :cry:

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

27. Not only sock-sock but

Underpants, sock-sock, trousers, shoes.

[tjwmason]

34. Even further

sock-sock, shirt, cuff-links-cuff-link, trousers, tie, jacket, shoe-shoe.

And much coffee all the way through, but hopefully not wearing the coffee.

[trof]

29. OK, Mister Master of Minutia, Mister Smarty Pants, answer this:

Why do we say "Put your shoes and socks on."?
Have you EVER heard "Put your socks and shoes on."?
Why do we say it backwards?

[politicat]

30. My mom said it socks and shoes.

One of my sisters was a literalist at about 3. *sigh*

31. If you wear just socks often

I heard... that your feet get wider and before you know it your shopping in the wide section and donating your heels. :shrug:

sock-sock shoe-shoe
If I had to leave in a hurry i.e. fire I'd like to wear 2 of something rather than one & one.. weird eh? Then when I have to buy a new pair of shoes I'll still have a matching pair of socks. :+

[XNASA]

32. Sock-Sock-Sock-Sock-Boot-Boot

Between Christmas and approximately Valentine's Day, I'm a two pair of socks kinda guy.

[hippiechick]

33. Chuck Taylors, no socks.
