Cotton Man Black Socks

I've been reading some articles and they say that white socks aren't very fashionable. I'm intrigued and would like to try out their advice, but I don't know where to start. Would short, black, cotton socks be ideal for men? I'm talking with jeans and casual attire, not dress-up.

since when did any socks become fashionable?
they would be hidden under your clothing, right?

Hi

My 17mth old spaniel is a chewer and has eat and chewed stuff that he shouldn't since we got him. But this is the first time he was too fast for us and he swallowed the sock. It was a man's black cotton sock scrunched up - and he swallowed it in one gulp!

This happened two weeks ago. We decided to keep an eye on him, and anything he deposits (in the hope that the sock would come out naturally). He has been eating/drinking fine, and his toilet cycle is normal, and basically he is fine. But we have read a few websites that say that we need to take him to the vets as it is very dangerous and potentially leathal.

I have booked him into the vets, but I was wondering if anyone can advise me on if this is necessary (I don't want that to come accross as flippant over this). But as he is showing no signs of discomfort and is eating/drinking normally, should he be examined or do you think the sock will pass eventually?

I hope this makes sense.

Best to have him it investigated. Dogs can't digest socks after all and if you've not seen it come out, presumably it's still in there somewhere. Better to be safe, than sorry.

I'm a clean man. I shower daily. All my life I have been troubled with really sweaty stinky feet. I am limited to white cotton socks. There is no stink at the end of a long day with white cotton. Black cotton? Stinky. Synthetic fiber socks? Awful. Even open sandals with leather or absorbent inner soles worn with no socks stink after a few wearings. I've thrown perfectly good sandals away because of the odor. If I wear black socks I can't leave them in the house when I take them off. Outside, away from the door. Any advice?

This is a common problem that is usually caused by bacteria. Try out a few medicated foot powders that have different active ingredients until you find one that works. I use Desenex anti-fungal powder. It contains micanozole nitrate that kills both fungus and some bacteria. The key to using powder is to sprinkle it into your socks and make sure it is distributed throughout the entire foot portion. If you just sprinkle it on your feet its not likely to work. I stick the bottle into the sock and give it a few shakes. This is the only thing i have found to be effective.

Just bought a pair of these and realised my socks don't go well (got loads of black Primark cotton socks). As a style-challenged 28-year-old, I would really appreciate if I could get some tips & suggestions here.

So what types of socks would you wear with these trainers? In terms of length / colour etc?

The shoes are: Chuck Taylor All Star (navy colour):

While we're at the question, would these navy-coloured trainers go with non-blue jeans?

Thanks in advance!

Not white!

Maybe blue the same colour!

Some patterned socks, maybe checks.

Nothing to bold, you don't want to draw the eyes away from your shoes! great choice!

and I think that colour will go with any jeans!

hope it helps a little!

INT. BEDROOM - MORNING



NARARATOR

Meet Jim, your average man, the man you never notice, the man who works the nine to five day job everyday without fail, the lonely man, you get the picture.





We are looking at a small room, covered with grey wallpaper with the odd painting of a woman half dressed standing in front of a small fence, but with her breasts covered in duct-tape. The floor is dressed with white carpet and as clean as clean can get. In the corner of the room is a small single mattress bed with a black duvet covering the frame of a man tossing and turning mumbling constantly to himself.



ALARM CLOCK- RINGING

At precisely 7.00am





Jim opens his eyes and stares at the ceiling before letting out a huge sigh





JIM

Wednesday the 11th of June, another day for me to do what I do best……let the world know I don’t exist.



Jim stands to his feet, stretching both arms as wide as he can , looking like he is about to fly away. He stares at the painting of the woman.



JIM

You should be glad I covered you up, cant be having you all nudely naked , distgusting behaviour for a woman of your beauty.





Jim then turns around and starts to walk towards the bathroom which is threw one damp and worn out looking brown door, he pushes his way past and into his small bathroom, consisting of a green lino floor and white tiled walls. One small mirror, a bathtub with a shower appliance, an overused toilet by the looks of it and a sink placed in front of the small mirror.Jim stands in front of the mirror and looks at himself. He is a man of petit stature a man in his early forthys, with short but curly black hair and tired eyes and a small twitch on his bottom lip, a slightly hairy chest revealed threw his un-buttoned blue pyjama top.



JIM

Ahhhh….look its me again, I need a new mirror, maybe then I might look better, maybe a brad pitt mirror, mmm note to self stop at mirror shop and buy a brad pitt mirror.





Jim grabs his red toothbrush and dabbles it with toothpaste before taking it to his mouth and brushing, slowly but surely, up and down and side to side, he places his toothbrush back into its little pocket on the wall and rinses his mouth out.



JIM

la la la la di dom dom, my name is Jim Cooper and I am your man of the year, ah who am I kidding? I work at an airport, hav’nt even got employee of the month or a free sandwich.





Jim walks towards his closet when he sets his eyes on the painting on the wall again,and thinks to himself shall he have one peek of what is under the dark grey duct-tape, but he fights his over whelming temptation and moves towards the closet.





CUT TO KITCHEN TABLE





Jim is standing at his wooden two person table rushing his last bit of breakfeast wearing his airport desk clerk uniform consisting of a blue t-shirt, a white blazer and black pants, which in fact are too small for him , and showing his cotton white socks .





JIM

Mmmm.. Why cant the world be made of you captian crunch delicious cereal, but you always keep me late don’t you captian, yup yup you sure do, but I forgive you as you taste so damn good.



Jim places the bowl on the table and proceeds to walk out the door, keys in one hand and a small brown suitcase containing his lunch and a pen.





CUT TO JIM ENTERING CAR



Jim walks out of his appartment building and into the car park which is just to the left of the building, car park has about 50 spaces , but only 4 cars remain in it ,one of them been Jim’s. Jim jingles his keys in his hands with a sad and lonely look on his face , and brushing his small curly hair back with the free hand. Stops beside an old run down green Toyota Corolla and slots his key into the lock on the door,it takes a few attempts but finally gets the door unlocked and enters, re-adjusting his rear view mirror.



The radio comes on playing a heavy metal band screaming very loudly, Jim winches before turning it off



Jim

I just don’t get it , why do these young people have to shout, what ever happened to billy ocean? At least that was calm and…





Before Jim gets to finish his sentence another song comes on the radio,it’s a pop song ,Jim looks bemused before driving off, not even bothering to turn the radio off as he knows another song he dislikes will just be on the next radio station.



CUTS TO JIM PULLING INTO EMPLOYEE PARKING AREA





Jim parks his car and shuts off the engine and begins to step out of the car, when a small chubby man with a bald spot the size of China on his head and also in his early 40’s runs towards him waving his hands and a slight limp



GARY

Hey Jim! Jim! Hey, hey , whats up man? Did you see channel 5 last night ,woooooooo man they had some nice ******* on there, Hey Jim! Jim! , guess what??? C’ mon guess!!



Jim

What gaaary !!!???!!



Gary

The stewardess’s from Europe arrived in at about 5am, I gotta get me a piece of that man, can u imagine? Bang bang whishk whishk…..ha huh huh? You with me?



Jim

Leave me alone Gary



Jim walks threw the sliding doors as Gary stops just before still with a huge smile on his face



GARY

Ok Jim, catch you later my man !!





Jim walks down a wide hallway covered in blue and white wallpaper and a shining wooden floor with stickers ;BAIL-AIRWAYS;

He comes to a electronic doorway where he swipes his employee card. The card dosent work, so he tries again. A security guard at the other side looks at him as if Jim was about to ask a question,



SECURITY GUARD

Having a problem sir?



JIM

Ah ya my card wont work !!



SECURITY GUARD

Are you sure? Try it again



Jim swipes it again but still no result



The security guard then takes his card and swiped it true, working on the first attempt. Jim then walks true but abruptly stopped by the guard.



SECURITY GUARD

Woooo where you goin buddy



JIM

To work



SECURITY GUARD

Goin to need to see some I.D



JIM

Are you kidding? I have been workin here for 12 years !!



SECURITY GUARD

C’mon just let me see your I.D





Jim pulls out his I.D from his left blazer pocket and shows it to the guard with a sarcastic look on his face and sighs before walking to his locker in the staff room just to the left of the security door.

Nisovin I can say one word and tell you the funniest film in the past decade and it has a narrator - Anchorman

I laughed at this. I could imagine someone like Steve Carrell playing Jim. Speaking to the naked lady he has covered up is good and then when he gets back he almost has a sneaky look. Talking to Captain cereal is good as well. I think the security guard should call him Jim and not sir. Then it's a bit funnier that he makes him show him his ID before letting him through.

Of course nothing interesting has happened in this part. It's introducing the character as a loser lost soul. It's the beginning of a film and how many films does anybody know that last this long? They don't do they. Also, while reading something like this you have to imagine what is happening. If you read the script from your favourite funny film it wouldn't be as funny as actually seeing it
