Personally, I hate socks AND shoes… I much prefer sandals or bare feet. But when I have to wear them, I prefer to annoy Archie Bunker in my mind as I go sock-sock-shoe-shoe (left-right-left-right, if anyone wants to know 😛 ). ---

> [@Snowboarder Bo](#): > > I prefer to annoy Archie Bunker in my mind as I go sock-sock-shoe-shoe (left-right-left-right, if anyone wants to know 😛 ). That’s insane. Do you keep your shoes and socks in the same place? I keep my socks in the dresser drawer, and my shoes by the door. I don’t have a “sock and shoe” pile from which I would withdraw sock-shoe-sock-shoe. I grab the socks, put them on, then go get the shoes and put _them_ on. Any other way is pure lunacy. ---

My thanks to the moderator for putting this thread in it’s proper category. I confess I was not even aware of this board :smack: In reply to i don’t care… I get my socks and my shoes, then I sit down and put them on. Why get up twice? ---

But when I have to wear them, I prefer to annoy Archie Bunker in my mind as I go sock-sock-shoe-shoe (left-right-left-right, if anyone wants to know 😛 ). I’m with you. I wear sandals 10 months out of the year, in Albany, NY! I only try to wear shoes if it drops below, say, 20 degrees, or if there’s snow on the ground. Really. I have hot feet, they’re always several degrees warmer than the rest of me, so I really suffer if I have to wear shoes. However, it’s always sock-sock-shoe-shoe. ---
