I was mising my favorite Tee the other day but then found it in the lint trap. Whew.
I sneak them to the dog to chew up beyond oblivion. I’m kind of mean that way, thoguh. 
Hmm. I may need to get a dog.
You can also knot a handful of catnip into them and make them cat toys.
I have trouble throwing out old socks with holes in them, mainly because I buy socks with patterns and prints, and I just like how they look, regardless of whether or not I wear them! But I did purge a LOT of clothing when we moved recently.
Somehow, at some point a couple of years ago, my sister ended up with a package of underwear that was too large for her, all in pretty blue cotton prints. She gave them to me, but they were much too large for me too, so I considered throwing them out. Then I remembered that I had a sewing machine. A package of cotton balls and a couple of hours later, and I’d made two Underwear Bears. They are in a box somewhere…
OMG, if I didn’t know better, I’d swear I was married to you! When I first met Hubby, I bought him a silk teeshirt from Wintersilks. Needless to say, he loved it and has since aquired several. When the first one got so thin and ragged that he got the head hole right one out of three tries, I suggested he toss it. You’da thought I’d stepped on his favorite kitten… on purpose!
Finally, it got caught in the washer drain/lint remover and I was not about to dig it out!
Spiderwebs are not for wearing.
I purged a bunch of stuff before my recent move. We just kept saying Margie will be so happy. Margie is a friend of my mother’s who knows where in town to donate just about anything. And some of the stuff is arguably in the “even Goodwill doesn’t want this”, but other pieces are practically brand new, but I didn’t wear them because they don’t fit right, or don’t look good, or are made out of itchy wool . . .
I don’t think I have any underwear without good elastic to get rid of though.
We can afford $18/pair socks, but we can’t buy decent t-shirts. What. The fuck.
::Sigh:: Mr. Anachi was once mistaken for a homeless person by wearing his “mowin’ n paintin’” shirt to the supermarket. We’re talkin about major ripped gaps here. :rolleyes:
