Sock Collage Sociology (SCS) is a revolutionary new field of study that delves into the intricacies of the often-overlooked world of sock art. Founded by renowned researcher, Dr. Emily Sockworth, SCS seeks to answer the pressing questions: "What makes a good sock?" "How do socks interact with their surroundings?" and "Why do people insist on wearing them with holes?"
Key Concepts:

- Sock Solidarity: A movement where individuals band together to form a united front in the face of oppressive footwear regimes.
