[quote="samburusunset"]As DirtyM can attest, I do have some. The stripey ones weren't easy to find. K-Mart was the one who had them. No green stripes though.
I'll get to work on the pic. Having a little trouble with the avatar not being gigantic, though. Any hints with the photo-buckay?[/quote]
I was going to stop at Sports Authority on the way home for some other stuff. The thing I hate most about tube socks is that my legs are really hairy and I have huge calfs, so the tube socks pull on the hair on my legs are painful and irritating to wear.

While I'm not a big tube sock aficianado (I had to dig around to find one of my few pairs), I highly recommend a type by Dockers. They have just the right elasticity to stay up, without cutting off your circulation, pulling out your hair, or leaving giant sock indentations on your shins and calfs at the end of the day.
Wow... this is the most thought I've given to tube socks in... ever.

OK....I was all fine with Hannaha's avatar.
But DaWeasel has crossed the line!
I think we need to institute a new forum rule...
NO "MALE" TUBESOCK PHOTOS CROPPED ABOVE THE KNEE!
We need to stop this now before the guys in shorty shorts start showing up.
It's all fun and games.... until innocent forum readers start going blind!

Just you wait until Phaty posts an avatar like yours...then we'll see how you feel about crotch cropped male tubesock avatars! 
That would definitely leave me with a case of "acerbic" indigestion!
At least he had the courtesy to wear a skirt in his.
(I'm going to stick with something a little more family friendly.)

BOOOOOO, blueboy.
Ignore him, Jeff. Nice pins. Flaunt 'em.
Bring on the shorts.
I couldn't stand another hour of retorts . . .

Dramatic highlights & a unique musical cosmos. Guaranteed.

I'm frightened that somone is going to up the ante and we'll got an avatar that's Red Hot Chili Peppers style.

Hey, now. Nothing wrong with the ladies in short-shorts either. Our Hannah could certainly pull it off swimmingly. But we're an equal opportunity board -- tube socks belong to everyone.
And do YOU want to be the one to argue with STEWART about whether or not men can pull off the short-shorts and tube socks look?!? Because I do believe you will lose that argument, my friend.

....ugh....Ok.
maybe they should be worn like the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
NO !
I'm only kidding ! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON'T DO IT !!!!
some of us have not seen a show yet and would like our eyes intact, the burning of the retina would be extensive.
Jeeze I hope they don't make green shorts anymore...please.
