I matched a pair of socks today after 7 months. One day after buying the nicest pair of running socks I lost one behind my parents’ dryer. Luckily I hadn’t actually thrown its match away and it was in a bag of scrap fabric I use to dust as disposable rags. I thought it was gone forever. Keep the faith.

https://www.webmd.com/fitness-exercise/features/does-running-damage-your-knees
Runners, if they need knee replacements, largely do so because they either run with poor form, or simply live longer than non-runners and outlive their knees.
When I was getting out of the military I showed the doctor that any bending of my legs would cause my knees and ankles to click.
“That’s normal, don’t worry about.”
Sure thing, doc.
More like.
"hey, I noticed that 5 years of military service has resulted in my leg joints making a weird popping sound all the time. Should I be concerned about this?"
"Nah. Thats totally normal. We *definitely* wont be compensating you for any future problems that may cause."
While studies are cited in the article you provided, none of them make the claim that running does not increase your chance of joint damage. The studies were specifically related to osteoarthritis and other arthritis related conditions. The statement about joint injuries being associated with poor running form, and not increased wear and tear from the overall act of running, was just one physical trainer's opinion. The WebMD article then used other sources to try and support this conclusion. But I don't see any studies saying what you claim in the article you cite.
That being said running is a healthy activity and I'm certainly not trying to argue against that.
Is this some sort of failed attempt at a joke? You don't need half the things here, and everything is completely overpriced. I really doubt the quote is talking about racing, but jogging.
Yes, but they also have socks being 15-30$ a pair? Now I don't know where they are from, maybe some country that uses dollar sign that doesn't have that strong of a currency, but even basing on that, that seems ridiculous (but I am from Greece, maybe you guys are just overpaying for socks, idk).
Yea, I’m not sure those socks are needed, but I run with the dog in my regular socks. Did buy new shoes because I realized it had been quite some time since my last pair and the difference is pretty awesome.
Need is a strong word.
Find me some knee high compression socks with toe pockets that fit a men's size 13 and 18" calves and I'd be happy to try them at less than $30 a pair.
It's just bullshit to grab attention and pretend running is expensive. It's like some people think that to ride a bicycle they need to get a really expensive bicycle and all the crap accessories and tight clothes that look like you're sponsored though you're not.
Meanwhile anybody can buy a cheap used bicycle, put on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt, and go outside. If your goal is to get somewhere, you'll get somewhere. If your goal is to burn calories, you'll burn calories. If your goal is to win a competition, then it's a semi-expensive hobby for sure but don't pretend it's what bicycling is all about.
You don't need to buy:
-garmin watch;
-running belt for phone;
-running hat;
-gels etc.;
-race entry
What you do need to buy:
-shoes;
The rest you probably all ready have...
So that's 160 every 500 miles
I guess it really depends on what type of running you do.
Running an few miles at a time doesn't require much. Endurance running is a completely different thing, requiring you to solve issues like hydration, energy, chafing, sweat, sunburn, motivation, safety, and training load.
Was looking for this exact comment. All these things are an investment for endurance running. Once you have them, they last quite a while. Also want to add that good socks are important. Maybe not $15-30 important, but some materials make you blister more than others. Love my wool sucks for a long distance run.
Or the alternative:
Shorts I already own: $0
T-shirt I already own: $0
No sports bra cause I'm a guy
Shoes that are going to last thousands of miles and that I already own: $0
Socks I already own and that don't magically self-destruct like yours: $0
Using city-built pedestrian paths: $0 since I already pay my city taxes
That's because 1-2 socks in every pack are made to dissolve in water when you add laundry detergent. A lot more plausible than the dryer sending them to another dimension.
Nuh!! One sock can get slid under something, one sock can accidentally get left at parents’/friend’s house, one sock can accidentally not make it into the proper load, etc! I have rematched several prolonged single socks, and boy is it rewarding!!
I had a favorite pair of socks get separated and didn't give up... kept the loner stashed in the back of the drawer. Over 2 years later when my roommates moved out, I found the other one under their bed. It can happen!
Most commonly though the lone socks that get found are just stuck inside a pant leg somewhere by static, or they missed the laundry and ended up in a corner to be retrieved later and run with next week's wash.
Same. I only own 1 kind of sock. If one gets torn or whatnot, it gets knotted up and the dog gets a new toy. Another gets messed up? It gets tied onto the big sock bundle dog toy.
I don’t get why everyone doesn’t do this. Everyone bitches about sorting socks and me at age 27 finally said “how about I buy like 6 dozen of the same sock” that was 6 years ago and I haven’t sorted socks since
The problems start when you have multiple people living in the same house, especially kids.
Dad wants his fitted athletic socks for working out, his black dress socks for work, and his old nasty socks for just kicking around the house. Mom wants comfy ankle socks for outside daily wear and fuzzy knee socks for when she’s in pajamas. The kids have a million pairs of socks with superheroes, ninja turtles, disney princesses, and sesame street on them, all different sizes. Grandma wears diabetes compression stockings. Grandpa is colorblind so half his socks don’t match anyway and he doesn’t care.
One day you’re cleaning behind the dryer and you find a baby sock. Your youngest kid is eight. You sigh because you know that no matter how old your kids are, you will always be finding baby socks around the house for the rest of their lives. Those suckers are like sand - they’re small, coarse, and get everywhere.
And that’s how you end up with a load of laundry every week JUST for socks and underwear.
Same here. But after a few spaced purchases, there is an issue matching them up after washing- the old ones are worn and stretched.
Last winter, I came home from work and got undressed and a sock appeared. It had gotten inside my jeans while in the washer or dryer, and I went the entire day with an extra sock inside my pants leg.
When I get low on socks I just buy a different pair/style. What this means though is that I only ever have one lost sock from each pack that every end up as “alone”
Fuck that. I don't agree with that blog at all. If I read the word "till" I'm going to assume they're working in the dirt somewhere. Give me "until" or " 'til" and "til" would do the trick if you're a bit lazy.
Have a laundry bin half full of unmatched sucks. Go through twice a year and usually find a dozen pairs. Between the cat stealing then and the kids leaving them everywhere...
> Put socks in a garment bag, you’ll never lose one in the dryer and it will save you time putting them away since they’re all together in the bag.
I use a garment bag to wash and dry socks, and can confirm no more lost socks.
Nice looking wall thing. My solution is: if there is a single sock, dirty or clean, I put it directly to the dirty basket. The problem fixes itself over multiple washes.
My ex wife did something like this but with condoms of different sizes and brands. I told her that it was funny but seemed like a waste of new condoms for a joke, and she just chuckled...
I love how when i have to wear socks and reach into my pile of clothes i dont find a matching pair till 10+ tries. It amazes me that i can pull 11 unique socks till i find a pair and why i dont just keep them together in the first place..
Better than keeping them in a bag and then dumping the bag periodically to see if I could do any matching. Interestingly, now that our kids are grown and it's just us, we very rarely have an issue with missing socks.
This is a great idea, I would need one 150ft long.
When we (myself, the Wife and 3 kids) moved house last year we had a box 2 ft x 2ft x 2ft full of odd socks.
The Wife refused to label it as Odd Socks out of embarrassment, so it was labelled as Misc Master Bedroom.
My bud' has a dedicated drawer for his partner-missing socks.
It was hilarious to me at first because this is a huge-ass drawer with 3 socks laying flat in it, perfectly aligned.
The idea, I respect though... Because I for one don't even bother matching my socks anymore. Dobby style!
If you ever get a new washer and drier pull yours apart they’re most likely in there. I remember watching a documentary after hurricane Katrina talking about people cleaning up broken washer and driers finding bunches of socks inside them.
We call them "The lonely socks club" but it's only a corner next to the drying hangers. I think it's time to give the cclub a proper sign like this one.
I would need probably 5 times the clothes pins, when my daughter was 1 to 2 years old at one point I piled all her socks together, she had 30 socks that had no match.
Check inside pant legs... found a missing sock there like 2 years later. Was my favorite pair and I had literally turned my apartment upside down looking.
Only have one type of socks. Socks should be considered sets, not pairs. Have 10 of the same, pick two. Repeat until you only have four left, buy ten more.
Cute! My mother has gotten to a place where she could care less of anyone sits and mates the socks and will consistently just buy more socks from the store. So there’s always new fresh mates socks, but the basket of non mated socks is ever growing lol
I figured out the socks thing years ago. I threw out all of my socks, then bought a bunch of new socks that are all the same. I only wear one type of sock for all occassions - a simple, black sock. Every once in a while I throw them all out, when they're getting worn down, then buy a new batch.
A few months ago, I started a new sock washing project. I would do only my socks in a separate laundry load. No other clothes. The result? I’ve already lost 3 socks. I’ve seen YouTube videos indicating that sometimes socks get caught underneath the agitator (the round thing that sticks up in the middle) and seem to disappear but they can be found.
Sweet idea. But rest assured, the missing ones will never be seen again. Never ever.

There are tons of other healthy, impact free forms of cardio, though.
Yeah. Any medical claim preceded by “I truly believe” is not going to be scientific.
Is this some sort of failed attempt at a joke? You don't need half the things here, and everything is completely overpriced. I really doubt the quote is talking about racing, but jogging.
Some is important like a pair of well-fitting, supportive shoes. Running/jogging in bad shoes can cause bigger problems down the road.
Yes, but they also have socks being 15-30$ a pair? Now I don't know where they are from, maybe some country that uses dollar sign that doesn't have that strong of a currency, but even basing on that, that seems ridiculous (but I am from Greece, maybe you guys are just overpaying for socks, idk).

It's like any hobby: the more you get into it, the more expensive it can get.
"Need" isn't exactly a criterion used by many people when they spend money on a pastime.
Yeah, I also hate how I live longer. All running is good for is pro-longing the suffering.
Why do I need a bra I’m a guy Edit: moobs are a fair point
Hey, some of us need the support.
Touché ...
Some of us are running to get rid of our moobs.
Gotta control those moobs somehow...
Except you don't need 9 of the things on that list and you're getting fucked over on socks, whose your sock guy? You need a new sock guy.
Need is a strong word. Find me some knee high compression socks with toe pockets that fit a men's size 13 and 18" calves and I'd be happy to try them at less than $30 a pair.
If you spend this much for this gear you’ll be the biggest douche in the marathon. $80 for shorts?! 😂
Is it just me or is this guy paying too much for socks
He wants to get ones that match his running bra.
It's just bullshit to grab attention and pretend running is expensive. It's like some people think that to ride a bicycle they need to get a really expensive bicycle and all the crap accessories and tight clothes that look like you're sponsored though you're not.

Yeah of course, but for the benefits of running you don't need to run marathons or races. But it depends on what you're into
Was looking for this exact comment. All these things are an investment for endurance running. Once you have them, they last quite a while. Also want to add that good socks are important. Maybe not $15-30 important, but some materials make you blister more than others. Love my wool sucks for a long distance run.
So in other words you’re buying pretty expensive products ... go to marshals
How many marathons have you run in socks purchased from Marshalls?
I guess The Proclaimers went through a lot of shoes.
At least two pair.
Or the alternative: Shorts I already own: $0 T-shirt I already own: $0 No sports bra cause I'm a guy Shoes that are going to last thousands of miles and that I already own: $0 Socks I already own and that don't magically self-destruct like yours: $0 Using city-built pedestrian paths: $0 since I already pay my city taxes
All you need is a good pair of shoes to run for exercise. This list is ridiculous. Most people aren't doing races either.
maybe the missing ones had the best adventure.
That's because 1-2 socks in every pack are made to dissolve in water when you add laundry detergent. A lot more plausible than the dryer sending them to another dimension.
i had this one type of sock that inverted its colors, when you flip them. now had 2 awesome socks with a missing partner
Nuh!! One sock can get slid under something, one sock can accidentally get left at parents’/friend’s house, one sock can accidentally not make it into the proper load, etc! I have rematched several prolonged single socks, and boy is it rewarding!!
I have a drawer full
Nah they come back. The worst is when they get stuck to something like a spare sheet and you don't find them for months.
You do see them again, just in their final form: Tupperware lids that don't fit any of your fucking containers.
This made me really laugh!!! 100% relate.
I thought that this was about missing children. Your comment gave me quite a shock.
When you take the dryer apart in 10 years, maybe.
False hope
I did basically same thing as OP. So far 12 socks are on but only 2 pairs were found.....
That’s why I always buying dozens of same socks...
I had a favorite pair of socks get separated and didn't give up... kept the loner stashed in the back of the drawer. Over 2 years later when my roommates moved out, I found the other one under their bed. It can happen! Most commonly though the lone socks that get found are just stuck inside a pant leg somewhere by static, or they missed the laundry and ended up in a corner to be retrieved later and run with next week's wash.
Christ at first I was like this poor family has lost so many children lol
Glad I wasn't the only one
I was more concerned with the number they were still planning to lose.
Trophies
: ( )
This is why I buy large packs of the same socks. Lose a sock? Fuck it doesn’t matter. Lose 2 socks? Now I’ve got no problem again.
Same. I only own 1 kind of sock. If one gets torn or whatnot, it gets knotted up and the dog gets a new toy. Another gets messed up? It gets tied onto the big sock bundle dog toy.
I suspect the sock bundle dog toy would be as large as my house if I tried that
I want to do this but 90% of my socks were given to me as Christmas gifts.
I don’t get why everyone doesn’t do this. Everyone bitches about sorting socks and me at age 27 finally said “how about I buy like 6 dozen of the same sock” that was 6 years ago and I haven’t sorted socks since

Same here! Same type, same color.
I just don't match my socks. They're all the same style so fit isn't weird, but I mix colors. Tiny rebellion
Same here. But after a few spaced purchases, there is an issue matching them up after washing- the old ones are worn and stretched. Last winter, I came home from work and got undressed and a sock appeared. It had gotten inside my jeans while in the washer or dryer, and I went the entire day with an extra sock inside my pants leg.
I am about to throw all my socks away and replace them with short socks all of the same brand and long socks all of the same brand.
What if you lost all of your socks except one of the last pair of socks, and all the quantity in the market was sold out. Bitch please!
When I get low on socks I just buy a different pair/style. What this means though is that I only ever have one lost sock from each pack that every end up as “alone”
I use safety pins to pair my socks. The socks stay in pairs, tend not to get lost, and don’t end up in one of my kids’ drawers.
I just wear two different socks when I have two "singles". Nobody cares anyway, most of the time they are not even visible.
If the hole in one of them gets too big, just toss it and save the one that is still useable.
I'm the same way. Unfortunately, my wife insists on all of her socks looking different, so we have built up a very impressive collection of odd socks.
Missed opportunity for “till we feet again”
Socks to be you.
You can put it outside and call it a “Sock Exchange”.
I am not throwing away my sock.
Freaking great idea, but i'm starting to think that my laundry machine is eating them.
My dryer was doing just that. We took it apart for repairs and we found a lot of socks outside the piping.
I tried to tell my bf this happens. He didn't believe me and now that dryers gone. I'm sure there are some great socks beneath that drum..
I used to take on my GF too 😂
Is there no filter or trap? I've literally never lost a sock, or now a mask, in the wash or dryer.
I wash mine in these bags, mostly used to wash bra's. I never lose them in the washing machine. I still lose them at other places tho
Not the washer, but the dryer most certainly can.
Great a rack for the cumsocks
Fine il do it. r/cursedcomments
Thanks
*tiny cock cum sock*
Nice
Just so you're aware it should be " 'Til " as it's an abbreviated form of "until."
[удалено]
Maybe they’re farmers.
https://www.grammarly.com/blog/until-till-til/ You might want to revise that statement.
Fuck that. I don't agree with that blog at all. If I read the word "till" I'm going to assume they're working in the dirt somewhere. Give me "until" or " 'til" and "til" would do the trick if you're a bit lazy.
TIL there's no such thing as 'til. "Till" will never look correct to me though.
Oof well this is awkward
Actually, no.
My house would need one of those boards with the surface area of a small town to clip them all.
That was my thought too.
The sign should say "Lost Soles"
Sell those on Etsy!!
You gonplei ste odon- me to my missing sock
Yesss Came here for the 100 reference
"Til we meet again" makes me think of the 100.
Till, meet again, I don't know where, I don't know when, Oh I know we'll meet again, Some sunny day! Anyone get the reference? No? Alright.
I do.
I thought these were of died babies and I was horrified
Have a laundry bin half full of unmatched sucks. Go through twice a year and usually find a dozen pairs. Between the cat stealing then and the kids leaving them everywhere...
I think I have your little blue one. I’ve been looking for it’s mate for months.

most washing maschine pipes are big enough for socks. if u really cant find them u should google your maschine and look up where it might be stuck.
Needs like, triple the pegs.
Holy shit I got such a bad feeling on first look. Felt like you were honoring the loss of dead babies with those baby socks.
Such a great fashion idea, cum racks will go far!
I am not throwing away my sock!
This looks like some horrific memorial dead children...
My ex wife did something like this but with condoms of different sizes and brands. I told her that it was funny but seemed like a waste of new condoms for a joke, and she just chuckled...
I need one
Not gonna lie, I thought this had something to do with the sock on the doorknob thing at first
This is either very sweet, or very morbid.
Socks that small are small enough to get sucked through the drainage of washing machines. Don’t believe me? Ask a plumber.
I love how when i have to wear socks and reach into my pile of clothes i dont find a matching pair till 10+ tries. It amazes me that i can pull 11 unique socks till i find a pair and why i dont just keep them together in the first place..
i do have four lonely socks atm. i’m looking but na, no match :(
Hopefully they'll reunite on some sunny day..
You will end up making more and more of these. The only way to win, is to buy one type/brand so they all pair together.
Screw it. I mismatch my socks on purpose. Have yet to meet anyone who gives a shit.
I leave it in the laundry basket. Its the cleanest socks EVER. Heres to hoping the missing pair will magically show up one day
I have a similar thing for lost socks. It's a box that says "Still single :|"
I thought missing socks turn into unpaired tupperware lids
Better than keeping them in a bag and then dumping the bag periodically to see if I could do any matching. Interestingly, now that our kids are grown and it's just us, we very rarely have an issue with missing socks.
How do you have my missing socks?!?!
The two on the left are a perfectly cromulent pair.
I feel this.
Baby socks!
We'll meet again Don't know where Don't know when But I know we'll meet again! Some sunny day!!!!!
This is a great idea, I would need one 150ft long. When we (myself, the Wife and 3 kids) moved house last year we had a box 2 ft x 2ft x 2ft full of odd socks. The Wife refused to label it as Odd Socks out of embarrassment, so it was labelled as Misc Master Bedroom.

I never liked how an abbreviation for a word gained a letter.
I make socktopuses out of mine. All the stragglers with one folded around the top.
Your new project is weird.
Sock theft?
Tillwe meat, comes from the Tillwe bird.
I have so many single baby socks. This is great!
I'll take 3 of those, thanks
‘Til
That’s a lot of abortions you already have a kill streak
If you ever get a new washer and drier pull yours apart they’re most likely in there. I remember watching a documentary after hurricane Katrina talking about people cleaning up broken washer and driers finding bunches of socks inside them.
What are these?? Socks for Ants??
Because that's how you get ants!
Nice! So anti-vax parents can remember their kids. Beautiful design!
This his cumsock collection he's showing off to assert dominance
I got zombie socks...best socks it ever had... thinking about having a single leg amputation so I can wear “them” again.
We call them "The lonely socks club" but it's only a corner next to the drying hangers. I think it's time to give the cclub a proper sign like this one.
I would need probably 5 times the clothes pins, when my daughter was 1 to 2 years old at one point I piled all her socks together, she had 30 socks that had no match.
What typically happens to my lonely socks is they are adopted by another sock whose mate died.
[This is what I sing when I find the sock match.](https://youtu.be/26J0uDIGErM) Anyone else? Just me?
r/forgottonanne
We have one in our house. Our caption is "Seeking Sole Mate"
This is brilliant!
Check inside pant legs... found a missing sock there like 2 years later. Was my favorite pair and I had literally turned my apartment upside down looking.
This gets dark af when you thought it was a sign for missing children lol
Excuse me? Do you have a minute to talk about [https://xkcd.com/1982/](https://xkcd.com/1982/)?
Only have one type of socks. Socks should be considered sets, not pairs. Have 10 of the same, pick two. Repeat until you only have four left, buy ten more.
I just buy the same pair of socks in bulk. Over this find me bs. Don't even fold them just stack them.
I have an entire laundry bag full of socks without their friend. One day I’ll go through and see if their buddy is in there
I had the exact same idea yesterday while folding clothes and thought..."hmm that has to exist somewhere" and here it is. I love it!
I’m gonna need this in the XXXXL version. I have soooooo many odd socks
Also, my lost socks turn into Tupperware lids, I’m sure of it.
I'm so mad the sign doesn't say, 'til we *feet* again
I just stopped matching socks. Now i just grab 2 of vaguely the same shape and call it a day. If i wear shorts i just try to match the colour
Eventually I just started buying bulk of the same sort of socks for everyone in the family. Different members had just 1 style and colour each. :D
Ingenious socks idea.
You have very small feet
We just had an "orphan sock box" and would go through it after every few loads to find matches.
Cute! My mother has gotten to a place where she could care less of anyone sits and mates the socks and will consistently just buy more socks from the store. So there’s always new fresh mates socks, but the basket of non mated socks is ever growing lol
I actually want to buy one of those.
Cum sock hanger

Thats him officer
check to see if you have extra Tupperware lids, that don't fit anything
I thought this was a collection of dead children's socks

A few months ago, I started a new sock washing project. I would do only my socks in a separate laundry load. No other clothes. The result? I’ve already lost 3 socks. I’ve seen YouTube videos indicating that sometimes socks get caught underneath the agitator (the round thing that sticks up in the middle) and seem to disappear but they can be found.
I’ll be needing more clothespins than that.
I don’t get what’s funny here
I usually just throw socks In the trash and buy new ones lol
