Hey Twitter Guy, Here Are 25 Reasons Girls Do, In Fact, Love Getting Socks As Much As We Say We Do

Here's the tweet that did not take long at all to go viral:

First, let's be more clear: not just regular socks but most definitely socks with designs and fuzzy socks.

So yes, Brian, in fact, we do love socks as much as we say we do. And here's 25 reasons why:

1. Soft

"Oh, those are so soft!!" -every girl when she gets a pair of fuzzy socks

2. Comfy

When girls dress up, it's beauty over pain. So when we want to be comfortable, we are going all out, and we need the comfy socks to do so.

3. Keep your feet warm

I mean, do you really want your toes to be cold?

4. Keep your ankles warm when wearing leggings

When I don't wear fuzzy socks with leggings, that little bit of ankle that is not covered is so cold!! Socks can solve that problem!

5. Can be a conversation starter

We love socks so much that we compliment each other when we see a friend wearing a pair we like. Then the conversation goes into where did they come from, who got them for you, etc. Great conversation starter!

6. Can slide on slippery floors

We all have to embrace our inner child and slide around the kitchen floor sometimes.

7. But also have grippers if you are lame or clumsy and don't want to slide on the floor

But I am also very clumsy so having a few pair with grippers on them is a blessing.

8. Can never have too many

9. Always need them

Ya know, when you need to be a tacky tourist for Halloween, the high, white socks are a must. But some socks with a tropical theme would have been perfect. Either way, socks were needed.

10. Show personality without having to say anything

With an endless amount of designs, there is a pair of fuzzy socks that are perfect for everyone!

11. Affordable

Be smart about getting fuzzy socks! Some places will charge $15+ for a pair of fuzzy socks... no, just no. Places like Walmart and Target have socks that are just as cute and are super cheap!

12. Festive

Fuzzy socks of all kinds are great, but there is just something special about those Christmas ones.

13. Perfect to wear with boots

Have a pair of shoes that are a tad too big? Are your rain boots clunky when you walk? A thick pair of fuzzy socks will solve that for you!

14. Can wear them with tennis shoes and they look super cute sticking out

I mean seriously... color coordinate with leggings and a t-shirt and you're all set.

15. Easy presents because they are so easy to buy

Socks are EVERYWHERE, which makes them super easy to buy.

16. Aloe-infused socks= GOAT

Fuzzy socks are already comfortable, but these take comfort to an entirely different level.

17. Endless options of designs

There are plenty to choose from.

18. Great size for stocking stuffers

Socks are not that expensive and they don't take up a lot of space, which is exactly why they are the PERFECT size to be a stocking stuffer.

19. Can customize them

Personally, I have never done this, but I do know some sock enthusiasts who have.

20. For all ages

You can't go wrong getting socks because everyone needs them.

21. Can send a message

The socks say it all.

22. Can make people laugh

I mean seriously, socks and puns... how could you not love them?

23. Keep your shoes from smelling disgusting

24. Little things make us happy

The simplest gifts can make us happy, including fuzzy socks.

25. Can package them in cool ways

It's a pair of fuzzy socks inside an ornament ball! How could you not love that?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

University of Dayton

boy in adult clothes

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.

Why I Love Being Single (And You Should, Too)

Dedicated to February 14

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

The 12 astrological signs all fall under one of four elements: air, water, earth, or fire. Air signs are rational, social, and love to communicate with others. Water signs are are emotional, intuitive, and mysterious. Fire signs tend to be passionate, creative, and adventurous. Earth signs are conservative, realistic, and loyal.

Each sign is determined by the relative positions of celestial bodies to ourselves at our moment of birth, which is said to influence our personalities. Find your zodiac GIF below, based on the traits and characteristics provided by each sign.
