I may be a snob because the socks go in the bin, when the holes grow too big.

[-] Nemo@midwest.social 8 points 7 months ago

"too" big, sure, but not when they first appear

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.

[-] Nemo@midwest.social 3 points 7 months ago

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

[-] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 5 points 7 months ago

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

[-] delirious_owl@discuss.online 7 points 7 months ago

Yeah, just google how to darn them. Socks are super easy to fix

Big sock doesn't want you to know this pro tip!

A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!

Guidelines:

Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!

Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.

Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.

A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:

  1. The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
  2. If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
  3. The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
  4. You cannot be a large corporation.
  5. The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.
