They are actually quite comfortable for biking, once I get them on. Of course, that's a challenge because they don't stretch for shit and I have big feet.

I really don't get why they always seem to tear right around the same spot. The "Sock Guy" socks seem to be the worst, but even some nice "Darn Tough" socks are doing it. Those have a warranty so might have to send em back.

Home Depot work gloves FTW.

To the guy with sock problems...try cutting your toenails. You don't need them long unless you're grasping prey with them.

Comfortable socks are pretty easy to find. Bike socks are first and foremost a fashion statement - esp the Sock Guy ones. And yes, I have a couple pairs, and yes, they are falling apart.

You can say that again.

The sock guys ones do just kinda suck. But the "Beer:30" joke never gets old.

Steam cleaning the coochie again.

That musta been a bad infection.

My dog had diarrhea all over the entire downstairs last night. They barked at 4am like someone was at the door so I got up to check it out.

I cleaned the floors from 430 am to 530 am

Try these out. They don't last super long but they have been comfortable and are cheap at $3-5/pair after goofy discount codes. The bottom of the heel usually goes thread-bare for me before anything else. Company is owned by a guy I know.

Rough one. Been exactly there. What's with the post-shit barking? Either bark with enough lead time to get let outside to shit, or just shut up and let me sleep and I'll clean it up in the morning.

That's the question I'd have as a non-biker: why do you need special socks to ride a bike?

I really like my Free the Powder MX Gloves.

You don't.

You just need socks.

I guess, technically, you don't even need socks... but I like to wear them.

I am intrigued with what you did for a half hour from 4 - 4:30.

Are De*feet expensive? I have some that are 20 years old, I can’t seem to wear them out. My faves now are PI that I bought at the now closed outlet in Oregon. $20 bike socks? OK

No idea. My current socks were $13 for a 6-pack and they are pretty comfy...

That I'm annoyed with myself for digging a song by an artist that tweens are into these days. I'm annoyed by the fact that I'm annoyed. Because I totally shouldn't be. A good jam's a good jam. Nothing wrong with that, right? Guess I was kind of misjudging the artist before.

Who’s the artist?

**abraham** · 08-13-2019, 06:02 PM

Roughly quoting:
"I don't want to fuck until we're exclusive"
"I don't want to be exclusive right now"
"But I want to sleep with you"
"I don't want you sleeping with other women"
"I don't want you to sleep with any other women twice"
"Except ____, she's ok"

This is going to end well

Sounds like a perfect recipe for a threesome.
