Socks Code

SOCKS CODE v1.0

So, you think you like socks, eh?  Well, the first thing you 
must do is admit to yourself that you like socks.  Whatever 
you're doing, get up, and announce to the world, "I WEAR SOCKS!"
Then take off your socks, or if you can't bear to, 

Socks Codes are prefixed by the string "SC1.0:".  If included 
in your signature file, they must push its size past the 
McQuary Limit.  If necessary, add a blank line.

W: White socks

SS: Sport Stripes

                a Crayola Caddy.

                unweapped them.
        T--     What's the point, the stupid treads
                always flip to the other side anyway.
        T---    I'd rather fill one with Grape Nuts and
                beat myself to death with it rather than
                wear them.

L: Sock length

If your sock length changes with the climate, use a / to 
separate the summer and winter.  For example: L++/- indicates 
high socks during the summer and low socks during the winter.

        L++++   Above my knees
