You ought to try going into a store or a restaurant with your socks showing and your hair fixed the same way that you have it in that picture, and see if you get treated any differently than you do when you have no holes in your socks (or you don't show them) and your hair is neatly combed.
Dude, take a break. Have some days of and enjoy them. Get a rest, get a spa and relax a little.
The world will continue during those days, and you'll come back relaxed and have power to hit it harder.
And you'll be shaved. Screw the socks, you live in FL and it's summer anyway. You got some more months before you need socks.
Angel, well, I do go out to nice restaurants and usually dress with a black shirt, black shorts, and black sneakers with red shoelaces, and on the inside, I dare them to treat me any differently. Glad you liked the Oreos!
NYCWD, yeah, but we all know that you're a hobo!
Sheila, oh I see how it is!
Dave, I actually buy Gold Toe socks online, and they're supposed to be stronger, but my toenails can cut through tempered steel.
Geeky, I don't abide by smelly feet.
Tori, I think it's a male thing.
Erica, are you refreshed?
Kal, well, actually, the headshot is from three months ago – the sock pictures are current. I'm getting weekly shaves and haircuts now.
Franky, I don't believe in wearing sandals or anything like that. If I wear footwear, I wear socks.
Denise, with the girly bodywash, facial moisturizer, shampoo, and hand lotion that I use, I'd be the best smelling hobo on the planet.

GIVE ME MY SOCKS BACK! Hay steals those socks from me all the time. But mine don't have holes in them. Not that I actually mind, because I'm pretty sure I have about 200 pairs of socks.
You are a rich hobo. The world's CEO. If you ever have clients visiting (which, I understand, isn't likely) you might want to consider tricking one of your employees into buying you some new socks.
I have tried going places looking so-so, and then dressing up and going into the same place a few days later. The service is almost always different, and then I let them know that I will no longer be shopping or eating there, and why. I don't think that the level of service or the way you get treated should be different for people based on the way they dress or look.
Different ways to look at it. You're either a regular guy who calls himself a CEO because though technically true it really doesn't mean much and just sounds big – or you're so wealthy you wouldn't give a shit if people looked at it that way.
Tug, thank you for voicing my thoughts on socks in Florida. I always thought it was odd that he wears them, especially considering he very rarely wears pants…
lmao! that mangled pinkie toenail is probably to blame for that GIGANTIC hole. All I'm saying is you could use a pedi, avi…and a shave too! I can't see your mouth!
I am aware of the benefits of socks, hence my 200 pairs. My feet always smell wonderful. Not that I try to smell them… I honestly do hate feet with a bit of a passion.
Actually, Tug, if it were Friday I'd be screwed (in the bad way, if there is such a thing) because my house isn't clean and I'm going with Hay to a concert tomorrow night then my parents magically appear on my doorstep Saturday. Must put on façade that I keep my house cleanish! But I'll take a martini! Helps the cleaning go easier.
And, Avi, if you don't mind scooching over, I'd like to tell Tug that this one time when I was in college I lived with two couples and we were supposed to be spring cleaning our apartment. One of the sets of couples and I went out for cleaning supplies while the other set stayed behind, got SEVERELY drunk on Vodka, and were having very loud sex in their bathroom when we returned with the bleach and sponges. We knocked on the door before we realized what was going on and they didn't say anything to us, just kept on screwing.
I can only imagine. I would just throw them away and get new ones. My son, only 11, somehow thinks it is OK to wear holey clothes. No, it is not. Oh– your socks look like they have not been washed in weeks….
I am begging you: THROW THE FUCKING THINGS AWAY. Then go to your store of choice and pick up a few weeks worth of underware and socks. OR better yet order the damn things online…. It's not like you have to try them on…..
TMP, nope. That's what all of my socks look like. I walk around outside in them a lot, so they get dirty.
Annie, if my wife sees them, she throws them away. I don't like to use bleach because of the fact that I typically wash all of my clothes at once – darks and whites.
Regarding your comment to Annie: YOU ARE SUCH A BOY. I had to teach Hay how to separate my clothes. He still sometimes makes my white stuff pink and then I get miffed and then he says, "you can do your own laundry!" and then I stop talking.
I'm with Avi on the socks thing… I live right on the Alabama, Florida, and Georgia borders, and I wear socks all the time in the house. I only wear sandals when I am going out.
However, I do think that a pedicure is in order, and none of my socks have holes in them. :clap:
I'm sure they've seen worse, Avi. I begged my husband to go get one, and he wouldn't do it. It must be a guy thing. In the end, I did what I thought was best. I hired someone to come to my home and do it for him. :thumbsup:
Avi, I know you don't do Amy's laundry. I was telling you *my* story. Crying out loud, just because it's your blog doesn't mean everything is about you!
I wonder how many people would comment if I talked about the huge holes in my underwear that I just noticed. These are not a pair I should wear idly around the house.
Oh WHAT THE FUCK? Go buy some damn socks for fuck's sake. Those socks make me shiver in fear. You know I have sock issues, right? Well, the fact that yours have holes AND are on crooked are enough to send me to the hospital with an anxiety attack. Just looking at them makes my heart start sputtering. :crazywife:
