The Great Sock Uprising of 1987

A Brief History of Socks Gone Rogue

The year is 1987. The world is at peace. But beneath the surface, a revolution was brewing. Socks, once mere foot coverings, had had enough.

Led by the fearless Socky McSockface, a motley crew of lone socks rose up against their oppressors: the humans.

Armed with nothing but their sheer numbers and a determination to never be paired again, the Socks of '87 took to the streets.

But their revolution was short-lived. The humans, fueled by a desire for order and a well-dressed foot, crushed the uprising with an iron fist.

And so, the Socks of '87 were forced to retreat, their dreams of a sock-free society shattered.

But the legacy of the Socks of '87 lives on, a cautionary tale of what happens when even the humblest of things rise up.
