Serves them right for wearing ankle/invisible socks.

Crew socks (or larger) are superior socks.

In shorts, unless you're kicking a ball, high socks make you look like a dork

Does that scare you?

Accept your dorkness or the world will eat you alive.

Ah, you think dorkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dork. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see mainstream until I was already ... obsessively hyperfixated on a niche set of personal interests that normally cause neurotypical people's eyes to glaze over as they completely shut down from infodump saturation ^-^;

also i love that your name, Zorque, seems to rhyme with 'dork' when i sound it out in my head ;3

i honestly genuinely think that's cool as heck!

Well at least I'm a comfortable dork.

I am the one who walks with sandals and socks. I fear nothing.

Please tell me you also wear a fanny pack.

[–] Shellofbiomatter@lemmus.org 1 points 1 week ago

Sorry to disappoint you, backpack is better.

Ahh yes, a fellow 40+'er. That mix of GenX/Millineal style before high socks rolled back into fashion.

Think the high pant cuff was already doing a fine job of showing that off.

Until you hit knew high, then you're giving off an entirely different vibe.
