As funny as I find that statement, I would hereby like to officially announce to all and sundry that I have NEVER IN MY LIFE worn socks with sandals, surely the greatest fashion faux pas that there is.
My usual viewing footwear consists of army boots with no socks.
Dunno what they call us but like the Good Doctor, I think of myself as a "citizen of the universe and a gentleman to boot" (with excellent fashion sense)
