Sock Burns as a Form of Art

In a world where the line between reality and madness is blurred, Sock Burn is a revolutionary new form of artistic expression.

It's like a performance, really. You, the audience, are the participant. The artist – usually a bespectacled individual with an unquenchable passion for threadbare foot coverings – carefully selects a single, lone sock from the laundry basket.

The selected sock is then ritually "burned" using a combination of flame retardant, a blowtorch, and a healthy dose of existential dread.
