Interesting, I always loose my right.
Just imagine if we had the same preference in socks! It would be like Christmas...

Since this is the GOP Board I guess the appropriate response is something like, Oh that really $ucks, I feel for your loss, let's go kick the crap out of who or whatever is responsible. But I was also curious where you buy socks that the left is distinguishable from the right? You must be very rich.

I have to show my wife this thread. This proves I am more normal than she gives me credit for.

 Knit a new left sock out of the belly lint.

Chris I have some pairs of white tube socks where the right sock has developed a hole, I would be happy to send you the lonely left socks so they can be happy again. I am having trouble sleeping at night because the left socks have been in the drawer crying. Let me know and we can work something out.....

Are they left and right because of the way that they're monogramed? Which has your first initial and which the last? It does matter. If they're monogramed for yourself, then the first is on the right. Upside down. For your adoring public then the first is on the left. Upside right , of course.

monogrammed is correct . I work on the hollowed grounds of an Ivy League school . even my undies have my initials on them . that way I know front from back and back to front . I also know left from right and right from left too .
Im not a racist , I hate everyone equally !

I've worked with an industry leading product packaging marking solution provider to develop an "iridescent laser bleaching" technology that is able to mark my socks without harming the fibers which would create a tension imbalance.
I had to replace my closet lights with special UV fixtures, and the mark is only visible with special goggles.
The obvious question is, what about business travel?
The R&D engineers at BASF have created a portable light source which fits in my custom luggage.

Geeze Spence, you must be a hoot trying to tie your shoe laces. Or do you wear penny loafers with Krugerands?
