IMPORTANT: The Proper Way to Take Your Shoes/Socks Off

I had a very important stoner/ shower thought. 

I firmly believe that there is one and only one way to take your shoes and socks off at the end of the day. This argument is dependent on one agreeing that taking your shoes and socks off feels really good.

Claim: taking off a shoe followed by removing the sock from the foot you just took the shoe off of then repeating the process on the other foot is objectively superior to taking off both shoes then taking off both socks.

Support: if you remove the items shoe, sock, shoe sock, you get the complete and focused enjoyment of one foot being freed. That wave of comfy flowing over you WHILE you begin to undress your other foot. Then, you get the second wave blossom from your foot and up your leg. 

Counter: if you remove the items shoe, shoe, sock, sock, yes, you get a potentially more satisfying burst.

Rebuttal: Perhaps, but it lasts the same duration as one of the feet of the shoe, sock, shoe, sock method.

Counter: Yea, but only serial killers do shoe, sock, shoe, sock.

Rebuttal: False. That only applies to putting your shoes and socks ON. I support sock, sock, shoe, shoe for putting the articles on. I agree that sock, shoe, sock, shoe is the serial killer method.

Conclusion: As you can see, the superior and only method that should be practiced and taught is removing shoe sock, shoe, sock.

  • I like to space it out. Shoes off when I get home. Walk around in socks on the wood floors. Esp in winter. Then socks off when I settle down to watch tv. Let the dogs breathe.

  • I usually kick my shoes off. Heel on back sole loosens first foot. Drag second shoe's back sole against loosened shoe to extract second foot. Slip feet out or kick shoes from feet depending on mood. This would be gross with bare feet.

    I think I rarely take socks off at the same time as shoes unless I was doing physical activity like running or hiking. In that case, getting my feet out of their sweaty shoe tombs is priority number one. Then I peel off the socks and hurl them at the hamper* with disdain.

    *I usually hurl them on the floor.

    there was an old episode of All In The Family where Archie & Mike argued over this exact thing but as relates to putting them on rather than taking them off-very funny

    i have this weird thing where i like things to be even on my body, like i won't get one hand wet without also getting the other wet. I won't have one sleeve up and one down and if i scratch an itch on my left side i'll probably end up scratching the same place on my right. All of which is to say that if you go shoe-sock-shoe-sock you're probably history's greatest monster. Putting them on it's sock-sock-shoe-shoe and taking them off it's shoe-shoe-sock-sock. I can't understand how you can be ok with having one foot completely naked and the other fully clothed, even if only for 10 seconds.

    @gguenot did you dip into the gummy bears tonight? :smirk: lol

    I do like your theory though!  I wear mostly flip flops, sandals, & flats but I’ll try it out the next time I wear tennies.  Let’s see if the gummies-fueled epiphany holds up!

    Same, but I have hardwood floors.  I only take my socks off when I walk upstairs to the laundry basket then remove and deposit them there.  There are times when I have removed both at the same time, and I do the one foot at a time method.  Then again, I can't say that I full understood the question to begin with.

    i remember hearing a thing on NPR a few months ago on how the department of health put something out advising SF residents to ALWAYS remove shoes indoors cause of all the feces in the street. BARF!

    As a sneaker head, I most definitely go the “shoe shoe sock sock” route. I’m careful with the sneaks I spent way too money on, and aggressive with the socks I spent normal money on.

    In most of Asia it’s absolutely frowned upon to bring your shoes into the house. You take your shoes off first. Which makes absolute sense. Who knows what the fuck you stepped in. Socks come off after.

    Sooooooooooo gross!  But honestly though, that’s solid advice for SF, especially certain parts *cough*Tenderloin*cough*.

    Me too! I do have indoor thongs (flip flops) and slippers, depending on weather, but I never, ever walk around without something on my feet.
