Default Where are you from, and what kind of socks do you wear?

Situation: going to play ball at the park, to the gym etc.

I dont travel much, I get out to vegas, atlanta, and florida once in awhile, but one thing Ive noticed is the difference in the type of socks worn by people from around the country. Here in st. louis, NO ONE wears anything but ankle socks, in the south you see longer socks, wtf is with this? What do northeasterners wear?

Wisconsin. White socks, halfway up calf.

Ankle socks are so lame that the engilsh language has yet to invent a pejoritive strong enough to describe it.

Apparently, German people wear anything but plain socks. One of my buddies in grad school was German and every single pair of socks of his had some sort of theme or a cartoon character or something. It was pretty goofy, and cause for much ridicule. Is this a common German thing or was it just him?

Ya, thats the norm here. Im mainly talking tennis shoes and shorts of any type...thats where the difference by region comes in. You are from NYC, I assume that this is protocol for most of the NE?

Socks half way up the calf are so lame that the engilsh language has yet to invent a pejoritive strong enough to describe it.

in the south you see longer socks, wtf is with this?

this comment confused me, i have lived in the south all my life (texas) and i hardly ever see anything but sandles and ankle socks. i just figured the warmer the weather the lower the sock and the colder the weather the longer the sock.
