Diz says it's more important for me to hold him right now.
One-handed typing precludes participation in this test.

I think I got an A though.

One fiddy. I underestimated my smartness. I guess I must be much more of an intellectual than I thought. Oh well, then it is off to VD.com for me!

I protest question 4. I have two types of socks; i.e. I have two containers of socks, each populated with an identical pool of sock candidates. If both of the two types of socks could be considered "odd" in the context of the clothing I am wearing on any given day, or if my choice of one type of sock is "odd" in that clothing context, then there exists the possibility that I "occasionally" wear "odd" socks (depending of course on the definition of "occasionally" and whether we are allowed to consider another category such as "negligible" ... or whether such an number of instances would roll over into the "never" category); but if the criteria for "odd" is explicitly an unusual or unique type of sock there are no instances of "odd" socks that occur.

I thought "odd socks" was when you wore mismatching socks because their mates had been lost in the dryer.

Oh. Then, no. I wear mis-matched socks a guaranteed 0% of the time. I don't have to "check" though, I have pre-arranged for there to be no chance of error in my sock-equipping routine. Although I couldn't accurately say "never" unless the sample size was defined as post the time I finalized my sock regimen. . . . This is deeply flawed, and troubling question.

Pay ATTENTION, assƒuck.

It's a little something we like to call reading comprehension. Maybe you've heard of it? Hmmm? No?

I wear odd socks. Pretty much most of the time. basically, I grab two socks and if theymatch all well and good...and if they don't *shrugs*

I like them to be of a similar style...so, I won;t wear one woollen thick sock and one thin cotton sock, but beyond that I really don't give a toss.
