I'm old, I'm fat, I'm lazy. I don't want to have to put my foot up on my knee twice as often.

Sock > shoe > sock > shoe

Q: If you have 2 shoes and 1 sock, what do you need?

A: A sock.

Perhaps, or maybe someone needs to find an alternative type of wankerchief.

Depends on the environment. When camping, in a tent without a floor, putting on each shoe right after the sock allows parking the shoed foot on the dirt while putting on the next sock and shoe.
But putting on both socks and then putting on both shoes is the default.

[–] Th3D3k0y@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago

Camping is almost always a sock shoe, sock shoe. That way you keep your feet clean and your shoes out of the tent

When getting dressed at the local public pool I usually do this only because the floor is usually soaking wet.

[–] LadyButterfly@reddthat.com 1 points 12 hours ago

OK this I allow

If you're wearing shoes inside the house you're all kinds of fucked already anyway.

[–] farmgineer@nord.pub 5 points 17 hours ago

My shoes are by my front door so both socks first makes sense; there's no reason to carry. But not wear, my socks to the entryway

[–] Hettyc_Tracyn@lemmy.zip 1 points 13 hours ago

For me it depends, but I typically do both socks first

Or...like, never given socks again. This is clearly abuse.

People who don't wear shoes indoors and keep their floors clean generally put their socks on in their bedroom after they got out of bed and their shoes on in the entryway when they're about to go outside.

You know, people who aren't animals.

[–] BeardedBlaze@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago (8 children)

Y'all wear socks in the house?!

[–] jack_of_sandwich 1 points 14 hours ago

I rarely take my socks off when I take off my shoes (unless they're wet). Not out of principal or anything, out of laziness. Later I might decide I don't feel like wearing socks any more and then take them off.

But I don't put socks on in the first place, unless I'm about to go put on shoes. If I'm not wearing socks and my feet are cold I'll get my slippers.

[–] OR3X@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Yes, because I have hardwood and tile floors. Shit's cold in the winter.

Wet or dirty floors invite to completely dress one foot first.

My socks are in my bedroom and my shoes are by the door because I'm not a savage who tracks shit into my home. Am I supposed to just carry socks around while I get my shit together to go out?

Sock > shoe > sock > shoe > underwear > pants > shirt.

P.S. why does naked except for shoes and socks feel MORE naked then just naked?

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 22 points 1 day ago

It reminds you that the rest of you is naked.

One day, you will.. Your knees will go and it'll just be easier to only change your position twice rather than four times...

Archie Bunker got very upset when he saw his son-in-law doing sock, shoe, sock, shoe. The son's closing argument was along the lines of, "What if we're both halfway done and there's a fire, so we have to run outside? The fire department is spraying water all over. Your feet get soaking wet because you're in your socks. But I have one shoe on, so I can hop and stay dry."

Had to dredge that memory up from the deep archives.

Who puts on shoes right after putting on socks in the first place?
