Yes, they can be functional, but can they be… fully functional?

but… I love my Darn Tough socks. They’re incredibly comfortable, and extremely durable. With a lifetime warranty, so if they start to fray, I can send them in for a new pair for free. I’d call them great.

It seems like Irk thinks the videos he makes wouldn’t rise to the level of greatness defined in the video, so why does he put in so much effort for something that can only be good at best?

So if people talk about great socks they are really talking about sex?
Is this an always type of thing?

- @caffeine_dude and the lady complimenting my socks at work saying she wished she had socks like that really wishes she had sex with me?

- @Pantheist Actually, Smart-socks would be nice, if they were also bluetooth & had a knife blade.
