It was a show of hands...
Future wife was getting ready for work and put on these socks that I hadn't seen before. I asked what they were and she said they were supportive socks... I immediately grabbed one out of her drawer and put it on my hand like a sock puppet and spoke with a high-pitched muppet voice.
Puppet: You look nice today.
Puppet: You're going to have a great day.
Puppet: You can do it!
Her: What are you doing?
Puppet: Being supportive.
Me: <laughs>
Her: Oh my God.With a knowing nod, I went to his room.
"Son," I said, "I was your age once and know what it's like, just use something else, eh?"
He seemed relieved as I winked and walked out.
I remember making puppets out of socks and having hours of fun talking to them too.
While my dad was taking his socks off after work...... "Hey, what does the sock puppet say?" "I don't know, what?" "Nothing! It's a sock." Continues to laugh at his own joke for five minutes
