[–] averyminya 10 points 6 months ago

They're socks that are typically given in psychiatric ward in a hospital

The ones in the picture are hospital socks, presumably from a psych related stay.

Crazy sock day is when your work asks you to wear different, funky socks for spirit week or a cause

The other commenter explained why those are crazy socks

The grippy socks in my drawer are the most expensive pair of socks I own. In fact, I'm still paying for them.

USA! USA!

If only they could get grippy toe socks going

That would be awesome

The last few times I've had surgery it was hell for my feet due to a lack of toe socks

Once you go toe socks you can't go back, they're so comfy

grippy socks make life worth living during the season where it's too cold to walk around barefoot. trick your brain into thinking it's actually walking on dirt/rocks, with all them little bumps beneath your feet.
