Those were the "socks" days of my life…

Once upon a time, I used to wear socks inside my shoes, but now as I’m growing old and lazy…I just don’t feel they are necessary at all. It’s a fact, if you want to judge a guy’s personality, look at his shoes. Nowhere it's mentioned, look whether he is wearing socks inside them or not. I wear LEE COOPERS the costliest one, so I carry a good personality. But when you look inside it, where are the bloody socks?? Does that mean I’m having FAKE Personality?

As a kid I was forced to wear socks by my mom while going to school in those tiny white shoes that was compulsory according to school’s policies. But now, when the company policy is to wear formal shoes, they never said you hafta wear formal socks along with the shoes too. I know I know…they even never said anything about formal underwear anywhere in that “Employee Handbook”, but I believe underwear is compulsory…whether it’s formal or casual it’s up to the guy wearing it.

Frankly speaking I really don’t remember buying any pair of socks myself. Whenever I needed them, I used to go, “Mom, I need new pair of socks” and BOOM!!…there you go…brand new socks right on shoe rack. And the surprising fact is that no one ever measured ma foot size, but whenever I try new pair of socks, they just fit in perfectly. Voila!!

Being a bachelor and staying away from family comes with its own small pack of advantages. Like we can move around for months without cleaning up anything that is lying around the bed, wash clothes only when AXE deodorant gives up its fight of making us smell good and of course when the guy from end of the floor complains of either smelly socks or a dead rat.

Yes, that’s the first sign of getting a new pair coz washing is like torture-test to the detergent. At times I wonder instead of those commercials showing how to bring safedi (whiteness) on shirt with stains, they should try washing ma used socks instead. They might change there slogan to, “Aaaya naya UJALA, poori bottle wala”, coz char boond will not make any difference at all. Infact, I’m so sure they’ll never come out with a new version of there product in future.

Being a religious guy, I strongly believe that instead of having “USE AND THROW” concept on ball-point pens, they should start using it on socks….you use it, pass on your shoe stink to it and then throw it. You are happy, you shoes will never smell bad and yes, your neighbors in office will never think of throwing stapler in your direction, whenever you cross their cubicle.

By the way, ever thought of this. If your body stinks, you have soaps & perfumes; if your arm-pits stink you have Deo’s. But it’s unfair that you don’t have anything if your socks stink. One of ma retard friend used to apply DEO in there, just to skip washing them…..yiiikeeess!!
