“Argyle socks are the visible sign of the invisible nerd fighter,” says John Green, proud nerd fighter*, argyle sock-wearer and internationally bestselling author. Oh and Internet star. Oh, and two of his books have been made into movies.
Just another living example of the notion that people who wear crazy socks are brilliant and successful. If you think about it, it really is amazing how some people can treat socks like “just something to wear over feet” and other people can view socks as genuine and exciting possibilities for comfort, style, expression, and creativity in general. What’s more, research indicates that wacky and crazy socks actually reveal useful and meaningful insights about a human being’s character and intelligence. Character socks are an iconic fashion trend that continues to gain momentum. Along with Scots using tartan to declare rebellion and 1960’s women rebelling against the “maxi” skirt trend by wearing increasingly-shorter minis, wearers of colorful, interesting socks demonstrate the importance of embodied cognition. There is serious science behind this: embodied cognition is the idea that what we wear is a direct expression of our mental state…and vice versa.
