I think sometime around 1988-1989 was the mixed scrunch sock phase. I started doing it because my older sister did, and she was in Jr. High so that must mean that it was cool. (I think my mom liked it because wearing two pairs of socks meant that I could wear hand-me-down shoes a few years earlier.)
However, from the books:
Like that Monday, she was wearing a black skirt and tights that were two colors: one leg was red and the other was black. And her shoes were shiny black and laced up to the ankles. She was also wearing this enormous black turtleneck sweater with red flecks in it, and one round red earring and one square black one. Her hair, which was in a mid-perm stage around her face, was pulled back with this silver lamé band.
Standing next to each other, Claudia and Janine couldn't have looked more different, even though that day Claudia was dressed fairly conservatively: white jeans, red shoes with big bows, a tropical jungle shirt with each button shaped like a piece of fruit, and her hair pulled to one side with a banana barrette. But Janine, with her short hair and bangs, her pullover sweater, and plain skirt and loafers, make Claudia look extremely exotic.
Waitaminute, Aimée. Aren't you, like, ALLERGIC to chocolate?
Yes. Yes, she is.
Chocolate is kinda like her Kryptonite. Can't resist it. Makes her ill.
No lead will stop it, though.

I have this relationship with avocados.

Online dating sucks. I've been on 8 first dates with gents who were fantastic on screen and didn't smell at all appealing IRL.
This is true. Still, online dating is comfortable for me, because online communication of all sorts is comfortable for me, so I feel like this way at least I'm putting myself out there. And there're enough others doing the same that I could probably have 8 dates in a month, with proper planning and not too much over-thinking.
Those outfits, Hil? Are AWESOME.
Two pairs of scrunch socks, in pink and green -- one foot with the pink and then the green, the other foot with the green and then the pink.
Dude. DUDE. I need to do this with black and pink.
What? Admit it, contrasting black and pink scrunch socks would look great with cupcake goth Victorian clothes.

Yes.
But it's just so YUMMMMYY!!
Plus - helps to have it in the system in case the Dementors come round.
Hey there folks. I'm bored at the LA convention center.
If only Cass had a dementor excuse for her guacamole.
