Sick and tired of brain poisoning from EMF waves?
Russell Brand is selling an amulet that offers protection for only $240 of your US dollars.

I remember Jesus being against the greedy tax collectors and those EMF waves in the market square.

Are merino wool socks worth it or just a bit of a fad?
Could do with saving on the heating bill this winter.

They're warmer for sure. I've spent a fortune on mine and don't regret it.

Any good brands to go for? Or a certain wool percentage to look out for?
Cheers all

I was going to say I get mine from nordicsocks, thinking that they'd be one of the more expensive options nowadays but actually they work out around £8 each pair which, having just looked around, is definitely on the cheaper end.

Nordic Socks - ime at least - suck. Two washes and they’re tight as a gnat’s chuff around the foot and annoyingly loose around the ankle. Cheap for a reason.

£8 a pair is cheap?

I'd check some 'designer' outlets, if you have any near you. I've picked up a fair bit of previous season stuff for fairly 'cheap'. They usually have a Jack Wolfskin.

I feel like this is a random rant because underwear shouldn't be so bloody expensive. Like £15-20 for 3-4 boxers. Why are they never in packs of 7 either? Underwear.. the real scam.

There's plenty of cheap, polyester underwear available. No one is forcing anyone to buy expensive stuff.

Yeah the stuff you buy down the market. Get an awkward erection and the seams all disintegrate.

I've had mine for a few years now and they're still fine. Spurred on by this discussion I briefly considered getting some more but none of them have worn out yet so I didn't. |

I love white socks. They're fairly warm and cheap.
Are sock snobs an actual thing?

Dunno, not worn a pair of red ones for 20 years and they were football socks which are the worst things in the world.

Wore them as a kid and never really grew out of them (figuratively). Think we had them when we were young as they were simply the cheapest.
