If you're Paul Wolfowitz (architect of the Iraq war and now head of the World Bank) and you're visiting a mosque on a business trip surrounded by press taking photos, make sure your socks don't have big honking holes at the toes!
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Also, you can wear subversive socks. I have a pair I got in France which look like black socks, until I reveal my ankle, at which case you can see a retro cat on them. Kinda cute, kinda funky. But THEN, if I choose to reveal the top cuff of the socks, you can see they say "pussy" around the top. Makes me laugh every time I wear them.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
look at them to see if they look bunchy or mismatched to what you have on and if not, you are good to go.
I can do bunchy, but my instinct for mismatched fails me when it comes to socks. And sometimes other things.
I don't think I have any striped socks, though. I might have to fix that.
I've taken to staring at other people's feet to try and gain some knowledge. So far, no one has looked at me funny or threatened to take out a restraining order.

Target is an awesome place for socks, BTW.

Someone should tell Paul Wolfowitz.

If I have a pair of shoes roughly this color, sort of a reddish brown:
What color socks would you wear with those? What color socks would be verbotten?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Right? But then I feel like if I now own a pair or two of brown pants, I ought to at least have a pair of brownish shoes.
With my brown shoes, I wear either cream, flesh-ish, or brown socks, because I am INCREDIBLY BORING.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Someone should tell Paul Wolfowitz.
But then he'll ruin it for the rest of us.

You could wear most colors of socks with those. Unless you were boring a cowgirl.
