…but I’d really just prefer underpants and socks or a nice fitting shirt.

Just nudging middle age and really want to clear the desk at this point.

    Want to change your life? Like, transform it? Buy 30 pairs of exactly the same socks. Laundry is now easy. No need to match socks. They’re all the same. Hell, I didn’t think about it, but there’s no need to fold the socks anyway. Just shove the loose ones in a basket and grab 2 when you need them. Nobody looks at your feet and judges style of sock. And if they do, fuck em. Those kind of people aren’t worth it anyway.

      I’ve bought the same pair of shoes for 15 years; Merrell Jungle MOC. When they are on sale I buy a couple. It’s made life easier for shoe shopping and go with pretty much any clothes. I but the same socks when I do but my nieces and children buy me socks all the time so I have bought my own pair in ages.

      Similarly, the best of way to get clips for all kinds of bags is just to buy a 50 pack of clothes pins. Just keep them in a little box, and you’re set for $3

      I do the same and store them in a drawer. After a while there’s stratification: The upper layers are worn out due to constant use while the lower layer consists of unworn socks.

      It takes years until the bottom layer is reached. That’s the point when I buy the next generation. 30 pairs indeed is a good number for that.
