on behalf of Smith, Iowa (at CollegeHumor / Connected Ventures):

"Over in dev we're tired of having to wash our socks. We're going to buy socks in bulk... by the pound. If anyone wants in, let me know. We order this friday from Alabama Wholesale Socks and More."

Couple days later..."In case you missed it, the shipment of bulk socks has arrived. I'm still a bit shocked at the quantity. The final price is $1.88/lb. Going rate is $1 for a one-hand grab...as many as you can get. If you want to get technical and weigh out your socks, thats cool too."

This is where I work now!

    What a scene. I like how people keep saying "Look at all these socks!" because they just can't get over it.

    Jonathan, your videomaking is improving with each new clip you upload!

    at some point, once you reach a certain number of socks, you no longer need anything else to make the clip funny. But then someone is buried in them, and it gets funny.

    How the hell do you people get anything productive done?

    Huh?
  • Marisa Gesualdi 3 years ago
    Considering how much office time is devoted to socks, lip dubbing, pranks, jumping over things, playing roller derby in heely's, etc etc, I just don't see how anything gets done.

    I'm just jealous that I don't get to have that much fun at work. :(
