Pluggers by Rick McKee for July 11, 2019

In my case, all my black socks with this one pair of socks that seems to be dark gray… or charcoal-colored (hard to say).

You should just sew a tag on them.

Anyone watching my feet to catch me wearing two colours needs something productive to do.

I put different colored dots on my socks with embroidery thread.

My guess was: “You are a plugger if you don’t care about your socks’ colour.”

I bearly wear socks or shoes.

Try to only wear white socks …dye issues :-(

I simply ditched all my navy blue socks. Black always works.

One of the joys of retirement is not having to worry about what to wear. The grandkids switched from giving funny ties for Christmas and birthdays to bright (and I do mean bright) sox — the ties were given to the granddaughter to make skirts and vests and granddad proudly walks around in color-coordinated shorts and sox (what colors go with khaki? every color!).

I put them in row by color. Black one the left, then blue, then green, etc. That way I can find them in the dark if necessary.

That’s not a bad idea.

2 Days in a row a Minnesotan contribution, way to go Judy Larson of IGH :)

Call Marie Kondo.

I always figured if I can’t tell the difference up close no one’s going to notice

Hubby has that problem, but in his old age he has decided to go for fancy socks – polka dots, argyle, etc. I’m probably the last person alive who remembers how to darn socks, so I get a skein of embroidery floss to match the sock and fix them when he gets a hole in one.

Or.. a dirty old man.. that needs a flashlight to check on the missus as she sleeps.

A plugger wears his socks inside out because they are more comfortable with the seams on the outside.

My only dark socks are Navy.

It seems keeping a flashlight in your drawers can be rather uncomfortable.

You need a LED flashlight because you still can’t tell after your old batteries make the old flashlight light go yellow orange.

My husband wears only black socks. No problem sorting or finding a matched pair at all.

Since I’ve retired I’ve worn socks on only two types of occasions:1. To attend a funeral.2. To dust the tile flooring while shuffling along.

I have socks of one color, problem solved.

Nah…just go over to a north window and use natural daylight. North light is about as close as it comes to a uniform distribution of wavelengths.
