Yeah. Me too. But it serves a function.

It's a sock that one of the kids outgrew and it's the perfect size to cover the base of one of the wooden posts in the roof top rack I built for our car. Keeps the oak post from scratching the paint on the roof. The foam I used to have on there fell off and got lost.

The rack is pretty ugly, so having a random sock flapping around underneath it as I drive around town is really just the perfect touch.

My wife doesn't like to be seen in the car while the rack is on the roof, so the rack (and the sock) spend virtually all their time in my shop.
