    There’s a correlation between wearing socks and athlete’s foot. Socks cause athletes foot, clearly, and so we shouldn’t wear socks when wearing shoes.

      Amen, brother! I have long freed my feet from the prison that is the sock!

        That just seems like a practical cost cutting measure for a squid.

          Meanwhile, shoes for cloven hooves are custom and they cost a fortune. And I need four. :(

          True. Also, buying five pairs of socks at once gets expensive.

              I think the air gets colder the higher up you go, so maybe that?

              Wait. Real question. How does a squid wear footwear? they don’t have feet.

              If wearing Crocs with socks is wrong, I don’t want to be right.

              My all-time favourite graffiti I’ve seen in the wild is “Don’t touch my croc socks”. Sound advice.

                Hey. Be comfortable. if you’re comfortable in crocs and socks…

                i’m more laughing at the suessian rhyme. “would you wear crocs with socks… and a fox?”… "WHAT MOXIE! I would not, could not, should not wear crocs with socks… not in a box, not with a fox… "
