Examples of socks in a Sentence

1. Tom Zegan:

Conspiring with tree spikers is not a mistake, a mistake is opening the sock drawer in the morning and pulling out two socks that don’t match. When you knowingly, willfully, intentionally, with malice and forethought, attempt to take someone else’s life – that’s not a mistake.

Then he goes, ‘ I heard that new album you did with Billy May. Knocked my socks off, kid. ’ I just thought, ‘ Oh. My. God. ’ And now the girl is all over me like a cheap suit ! I was just so smitten. It’s really cool to be recognized by one of the greatest singers of the 20th century.
