Friday Wisdom – Socks

Posted on 08/27/2021 by Andrew Reynolds

When golfing, always bring an extra pair of socks – just in case you get a hole in one.

My socks are so holy that I only wear them to church.

I decided to wear socks when I went on the rollercoaster just in case I got cold feet.

I had this great list of jokes on pairs of socks, but I lost one.

The best known footwear philosopher is Sockrates.

When taking clothes out of the drier, I always have to re-pair all my socks.

When you’re sad, put on socks – they’re sole warming.

I read that it takes three sheep to make a pair of socks. That’s really amazing, I didn’t know sheep could knit.

Just read that Santa Claus has made a big investment in the sock market.

Pla-toe was a lesser known Greek philosoher.

My sock has a hole in it – darn it.

The kids asked what it’s like to be a mother, so I woke them up at 4am to tell them my sock fell off.

He kept going on and on about what he should put in his new spare drawer. I told him to put a sock in it.

    Ha – good ones! And now I can honestly boast that I’ve gotten a hole in one… 😉

    If you had to guess, surely you would know that the second to last made me laugh the hardest. 😛

    I can ALWAYS count on laughing every Friday (even though I read this on Monday while guffawing)!

    Sockrates and Pla-toe! Cringeworthy AND very funny at the same time. 🙂

    I am a day late, but they are still wise thoughts on Saturday. I think my favorite is about losing the joke about socks. So appropriate! You are a ‘sock star’! 😀

    Really funny jokes again. I think one or two mothers might identify with the 4.00am wake-up call.
