That thing where you put on a fresh pair of socks and one has a hole so you think well I went to all that trouble to pull it on, this will be your last day little buddy, I’ll just throw it away after I wear it today.

Last chance underwear happen now and again as well but I guess it depends on where the hole is.

Nope, straight into the garbage. I have a garbage in my bedroom.

Like others I have many socks of the same type. Why would I wear a sock that has failed in its purpose?

Same with underwear.

You people need to get your lives in order.

I'm kinda surprised you can see us peasants from that high horse.

A bit over the top given the context lol.

I mean, I'm the same. They have a whole? I'll throw them away. But I don't immediately consider people who wear socks with holes in them not to have their lives in order provided with only that info about them.

I think they were being hyperbolic

Yes. I refuse to tag my sarcasm.

Says the guy with garbage in his room

Having a garbage in your bedroom is much better than having many of the same socks
