Phone call #1.
"Hello. This is Rob."
"Hi, it's me. I'm going to the store. You need anything?"
"Yes. New socks."
"Um, OK. I just bought you new socks."
"Yeah, those are dress socks. I need regular socks."
"Regular socks?"
"Yeah."
"As opposed to--what? Athletic socks?"
"Yeah."
"So...dress socks."
"No, regular socks. This is because you don't wear socks."
"Uh-huh. So when I get to the store, it'll be like: athletic socks...dress socks...and socks?"
"Don't worry about it."
"OK. I'll see what I can find."

Phone call #2, later that afternoon.
"This is Rob."
"They're called 'casual socks,' for the record."
"So you found some."
"Yes, I looked and there were dress socks, athletic socks, and casual socks. I guess as opposed to formal, upscale, planned socks."
"Or as opposed to committed, monogamous socks."

That was a sock lesson for me too! By the end of that post, the word "socks" started to sound really funny....
Men....what more can you say?
LOL.
