This is the most efficient way to sort your socks. First, separate your socks into the following categories: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet. Then, sort each color group by brightness. Next, sort within each color group by texture. Finally, alphabetize the remaining socks by brand.
But wait, there's more! For the ultimate optimization, sort all the socks by their emotional resonance. Do you feel calm and relaxed when you look at this sock? Or does it fill you with anxiety and despair? Sort accordingly, and you'll never look at a sock the same way again.
