Today was crazy sock day at work, so I wore the socks they made me wear when I was in the psych ward.

While it sucks that you ended up in the ward, I love this ebergy

whats crazy sock day and whats crazy about those socks?

[–] zigmus64@lemmy.world 100 points 3 months ago (3 children)

If some place has crazy sock day, they’re talking about people wearing bright loud print socks or something super outlandish.

The crazy socks in the photo are the socks they give you when you’re admitted inpatient at the mental health hospital.

They were the best part of my last hospital visit 😃 (not mental health related)

TIL it's crazy sock day everyday for me.

[–] eldoom@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 months ago

These are also the socks they give you in jail!

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 26 points 3 months ago

Those kind of socks are typically used in professional medical or mental facilities.

They're socks that are typically given in psychiatric ward in a hospital

The ones in the picture are hospital socks, presumably from a psych related stay.

[–] Beegzoidberg@beehaw.org 3 points 3 months ago

Crazy sock day is when your work asks you to wear different, funky socks for spirit week or a cause

The other commenter explained why those are crazy socks

[–] FoxyGrandpa@lemmy.world 29 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Grippy socks, grippy box 😉

~~Don't~~ stick your dick in crazy.

I just want you to know that this joke has lived in my mind since I read it. A+

Crazy SOCK5 port day

The grippy socks in my drawer are the most expensive pair of socks I own. In fact, I'm still paying for them.

USA! USA!

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

If only they could get grippy toe socks going

That would be awesome

The last few times I've had surgery it was hell for my feet due to a lack of toe socks

Once you go toe socks you can't go back, they're so comfy

[–] colin@lemmy.uninsane.org 8 points 3 months ago

they exist! i have a pair from Gaiam, advertised as "grippy yoga socks". they ain't cheap though :(

[–] xantoxis@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

This one's kinda specific but I like it

[–] colin@lemmy.uninsane.org 10 points 3 months ago

grippy socks make life worth living during the season where it's too cold to walk around barefoot. trick your brain into thinking it's actually walking on dirt/rocks, with all them little bumps beneath your feet.

[–] toomanypancakes@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

I kinda miss my pair, they were a comfy light blue but I threw them out trying to make drawer space
