In product, ingredient lists, we in the US know the first ingredient is the main component.

But this isn't a "product, ingredient list".
It's an English language grammatical construction.

The most important role for a sock to be is to be a sock that conforms to your sock needs. Oh. You're wearing sandles? These socks will be virtually unnoticeable.

:p

True. Which makes me wonder if these "one size fits all" product would in fact be any good for sockage.

I guess we have to call them "sandally-socky novelty footwear".

Darn it all.

You forget that japan is in the future and it makes sense then. Until it is in the past and it makes no sense just like the pet rock it seemed like a great idea at the time.

Sadly, people have lost this skill and they'll probably be thrown away once they develop holes.

Any people who develop holes should be thrown away immediately.

You could hardly get the proper angle on the brush to allow that to really get the crumbs up off the floor. And you'd best use a short wastebasket for ease in emptying the dustpan.

We've raised five Labrador Retrievers and a couple of nondescript graduates from the local pound.
We spent countless $ on dog toys... only to have the beast destroy each one in just a few minutes of play.

But my wife has now "invented" the least expensive, most enjoyed,
and almost utterly indestructible dog toy.

From her "orphan sock" laundry basket and the plastic bottle recycling bin, we have...

Of the three she made, the best was with a gym sock with a wide mouth
plastic bottle, capped and still containing a few kernels of pop corn.

Next was a capped shampoo bottle, and last was the "almost ran" coke bottle with no cap.

We just haven't yet figured out how to patent this scientific discovery, or how to make money off it.

Benny has an old fencing sock he just adores.

I'm not too big on one function appliances but if you need to kick the ice cream habit this thing makes a creamy dessert from frozen bananas and other fruits. yonanas

Lamplighter, that thing wouldn't stand up to my Shih Tzu for a day!

And I understand the desire for inexpensive dog toys and have used the sock toy in the past. However, it tends to tell them that ALL socks are toys and they then get into your laundry basket and there goes your socks AND your underwear!

Try it... s/he may not be the ultimate destroying machine you think.

I certainly do NOT advocate putting plastic bottles in your underwear,
but some ballet danseurs have found a special use for orphan gym socks.

Plastic water bottles are a fine cheap toy. 2 liters for the bigger breeds...They love the sound they make when they chew on them.

Is it okay for dogs to ingest chewed bits of plastic?
