Anon encounters another channer in the wild
be me
sitting on the toilet at the bouldering gym
suddenly weird feeling on my feet
look down
oh crap, I accidentally shat my socks
suddenly, an idea
see OPs post for rest of the story
Explain thy how the fuck.
A friend of mine (not me, I swear) once got sudden diarrhoea and shat his pants in public. He “found” a comparatively clean pair of underpants in the locker room, put them on instead and skedaddled. No one ever found out.
Could have just gone commando…
Yea using someone else’s underwear sounds way more discussing than just going commando.
$10 says that Anon is female.
I wonder if they could invent socks with a toe-print reader and a silent gps alarm… And while we’re at it, let’s add some exercise tracking stuff for runners. Only $500 and a monthly subscription!
$500, monthly subscription, and your GPS and foot data get sold for advertising purposes
Consider it an investment if you can also sell the realtime state of your feet via onlyfans. Even better if there’s an amateur podiatry chat for the real freaks.
“The way they’re curling their toes, they gotta be doing something good.”
“Get arch support”
“Sleep chat?”
“Seriously, get arch support”
“I use Arch (support) BTW”

But socks are worn under the shoes, not the pants
Not if your pants are long enough.

How do you forget to wear socks and not realize? Putting shoes on without socks feels dramatically different.

He’d notice as the changed out his shoes and actually decided not to wear socks.
And now I can’t remember whether I’d wear socks in my climbing shoes.
I’m repulsed and afraid.
The “repulsed” bit I totally get. What are they “afraid” of, though? That it’ll happen again?
Are they afraid for humanity in general? There are much worse things out there, pal. Read the news sometime.
It’s reasonable to be afraid that someone who stole JUST your socks might be stalking you or something
Okay, that makes sense. Thanks.
Media is conveniently silent on this sock stealing epidemic
Cubbie? WTF? Every gym I’ve ever been to had lockers. you can’t steal socks if they’re behind a padlock (typically).
My bouldering gym has cubbies, basically a closet without doors, that are located facing the climbing area
Why did he take his socks off to go bouldering?
You wear most climbing shoes without socks.
Huh, i always wore socks and no one told me otherwise. Wack
To be fair i was never doing anything too difficult
Some climbing shoes are designed to use with socks, but many are designed to be used without.
I kinda wondered the same, since back when I climbed if I forgot my liner socks I would skip the climbing wall.
But I had janky shoes and I also recall there being climbers who insisted socks were bad and stupid since they inhibited toe movement.
I don’t think I ever saw anyone with socks
The same happened to me at the pool when I was 10. I just thought it was weird back then, now I’m disgusted.
I forgot socks once, because I was wearing sandals. I contemplated doing this. I didn’t though.
Most places have cameras, assuming this isn’t a changing room. Most gyms have cubbies just on the side, in the open.
So, talk to the staff, figure it out.
Maybe they’ll get them back… when whoever took them is done with them.
Good thing that didn’t happen to me, I would have went through the all the cubbies and took someone else’s socks.
You… would prefer stealing someone else’s used socks to wear while going home instead of, you know, not doing that and just going home? 🤨
It’s the ciiiiiiiiircle of the gym sooooooocks and it ruules us aaaaaaaall
Socks > No socks
