      It really is the entitled version of the boots theory. I wear my clothes literally hundreds of times before they get worn out and this article is suggesting that 10 wears of “cheap” ($50) clothes and it’s trash time. This article is way out if touch to the average non-fashion obsessed buyer imo.

            TIL that I’m probably entitled cause when I see a small hole, that socks goes to trash and the other one in the pair becomes orphaned.

              Hey as long as you’re not throwing out both if one gets a hole, I’m glad to have you on the team.

                Yeah exactly, the orphan must now wait until a matching orphan joins it. Then it can be worn just a bit longer!

        They’re talking about the average US American, not the BIFL crowd. We’re a special group, and they’re trying to nudge more people our direction
