Flummoxed laundromat patron Wilson Davis has observed that when a designer label boasts its socks as being “High-Quality,” what they really mean is “These Socks Will Take For Fucking Ever To Dry.”
“Look at these,” extolled Davis as he held out a pair of black Calvin Klein dress socks to nearby laundrymen. “They’ve been in there, on high, for over and hour, and yet I could go wash my whole car with these things.”
By comparison, so-called “low-quality” socks dry rather efficiently. “You see these?” Davis asked no one in particular. “You get twelve pair for five bucks at K-mart. All you have to do is hold them up to a desk lamp and, boom, dry as a bone.”
