Anyone else here OCD about their socks matching?

Today is laundry day, I don't own many clothes so I wash them all every week.

I have to go somewhere now though. I looked through my sock drawer and I can only find one ankle sock and a tube sock. I can't wear these both at once, I get all like weirded out and it's strange. So now I have to wait an hour or so until my laundry is done to get a matching pair of socks.

OCD people just need to calm down and smoke a bowl or something.

A sharp-dressed man would never wear non-matching socks!

Draw full of identical socks - no longer a problem.

Become a student. You can say "I'm wearing odd socks because I'm making a statement against/for [insert cause here]".

I have ocd where socks are concerned though.

Since most of my socks are of the same brand, design, and color, I generally don't have this problem. But I have, on occasion, worn mismatching socks. I don't really care to be honest.

Like any1 even notices your socks (unless you wear shortys).

75% of my socks are either pure black or darkblue, a few have some lighter blue or grey colours and maybe some kind of icon on it.
If i mix my socks no1 would notice them being different.

That's called not looking like a dork. It's not OCD.

I don't really care if anyone noticed my socks, to me it just feels weird thought and is a nagging thought on my mind.

I certainly try to wear matching socks, though its not often you can see them under my slacks anyway. I've worn mismatched socks on occasion, but not often.

They feel different and that bugs me. So yeah...

That's exactly what I do. Socks aren't fashionable to me, they're just for keeping my feet warm. I wear two pairs if football's on.

I threw out all my socks and bought 24 pairs of plain white socks, so that all of my socks always match.

I might be a little OCD, but I also spend less time worrying about my socks than anyone here. Edit: than anyone here who hasn't done the same thing.
