The Votes Are In

The sock poll has closed. Fifteen readers participated in this silliness. Forty percent of those who voted want to keep their socks. Therefore, I can keep my fuzzy socks without fear of a visit from the sock police. Anklettes with pompoms were the least favorite socks. Five voters said we should ditch them. Only three people wanted to get rid of knee socks with the colored bands. I was surprised at this. Everytime I see someone wearing them, I think of the 70's and shorts that were waaay too short. Finally ourfriendben was all by himself in wanting to get rid of socks completely. Cinj did say she agreed with him in the comments, but her vote did not show up on the poll. So sorry ourfriendben, socks are here to stay, but we can't make you wear them.

I promise to try to take this blog a little more seriously, but don't count on it.

  1. How demoralizing! But I'll stick to my bare feet, thanks. And thank God for Muck Shoes! They keep bare feet warm even in the coldest weather. But let me just say that I remain undaunted. Maybe some day all you sock-wearers will see the light...

  2. OFB, lucky for you that sock wearing is an option and not a requirement. It was a fun game.

  4. I only wear socks OR shoes a few months out of the year....Does that count? Hubby says I have Walmart feet.

  6. Actually I voted to keep socks. Originally I had voted for outlawing those silly pom-pom socks, stupid pom-poms always fall off anyway. Grr. I wear them in any month that I can't wear sandals in. If socks were outlawed my feet would freeze in the winter. Brrr!

    It is nice to go sockless and shoeless sometimes though. I used to like to run barefoot in my yard, but the yard I have now has way too many rocks and sand and not enough grass for my taste.
