Do you pair them when you are done laundering them...Or do you just throw them in the dresser drawer (or wherever you keep them) and pull them out as you need them. I do the latter and most of the time I do not even bother to pair them up correctly e.g. wearing mismatched socks.

Bonus question: Do you fold your underwear? I do not.

Not immediately after taking them out of the dryer, but as I'm putting my clothes away, I do pair them.

-I tried topair them up when I put them out to dry right after washing them. In my part of town the dryer is mostly unnecessary as the weather is bone dry pretty much year round

-Yes I do fold my undies nice and neat, only way I can fit them where I store them

Mine- pair up. They're not all the same so they go quick, plus I don't want to dig around when I need them.
BF's- throw them in the drawer. They all look the exact same and it takes forever to pair them up.

I pair them up if I can find a pair that is the same amount of stretched and worn thin/a suitable partner.

I fold my undies. :3

I bundle up my socks real because it's quick and makes things a lot easier.

I don't see the point in folding underwear. :?

I always pair them up when they come out of the wash.

That being said I do have a big bag full of odd socks, whose partners have obviously been whisked away through the intergalactical wormhole at the back of my washing machine, to become an offering to the Sock God.

I think your machine's wormhole is connected to my machine's wormhole because I have a similar sock stash.... so maybe there is no sock god... your socks just came to me!?

My socks never match. Ever. So I just chuck them and find two that are relatively the same height when I need a pair. and who the heck folds underwear? unless you have massive undergarments, they should never need to be folded.

Are they boring socks? Luckily the only socks that disappear are my plain white boring ones. All my cool and more valuable knee socks stay here.

I pair my socks when I put my clothes away, it's way better so i don't have to practically throw my clothes around until I find a pair in the morning. As for the underwear question? Thats a secret, fufufu~

I typically pair them up right away once my laundry is done.

my dresser is pretty much filled to the brim so without an organized way of keeping clothes folded and in place nothing would fit. my socks are paired while folding and then arranged nearly into their drawer to allow for maximum use of my dresser space.
