socks

socks meaning

A pair of socks. They stand for warmth, comfort and the single most common gift nobody asks for. They appear in cosy and winter posts, and in the universal, unsolved mystery of where the other one goes. Socks are also a running joke as the default disappointing Christmas present, a reputation they have never shaken.
