What's with the socks?
Seriously, if you are going to ask the most ridiculous questions, be a brave little toaster and show us who you are.
shareI think they're mainly to keep your feet from chafing against the inside of your shoes.

MovieChat Forums > General Discussion > What's with the socks?
It's the nature of forums like this. What pisses me off is being accused of being a sock or having a sock. It's a popular tactic when you have lost an argument. Just call the member a sock.
shareI am referring to those posting with just a handful of posts.
shareLet's go a bit further. Who is controlling these sock accounts? That would be a fun guessing game!

This is just a guess mind you. Who wants to play?????
I'm just weary of the accounts with 5 posts. I keep my eye out before I engage, and I'll read all their other stuff.
shareSmart.
shareHelp me find this movie
A guy does something, I think there was a town and a blonde girl, I saw it in the 90s but it was older that
Thanks guys
Hey guys looking for a movie
I think was black and white but not sure. Don't remember anything that happened but prtty sure I saw it when I lived in Burbank. I was sleeping on the couch at the time it might have been a dream.
Ok thanks guys
Well that should be no problem.
shareI think I've ever been accused of it. I can't see spending the energy to express myself twice. Much less to myself!!
Idiocy.
In political threads here and political forums elsewhere it is much more prevalent. People get paid to do so and even if they aren't being paid people do it. It's a strange world. People get paid to review films on places like IMDB. They give good or bad reviews to books. It's forming public opinion artificially.
shareI call it lying. Not into it, y'know?
shareOh it's bullshit and I hate it. My point is that the internet and chat forums, review sites, etc. are being targeted by entities that do not have good intentions. And those entities wield power. This is a new world and people need to wake up. Governments need to address the problem. It's only going to get worse. It's a new frontier and if your country doesn't get ahead of it they will fall behind.
shareThat's probably true. I'm barely computer literate so I won't be much help. To be honest, I make an effort to live simply as much as possible. I see alot of hard core Psychological addiction in this brave new world that goes undiagnosed for any combination of reasons and I ain't into that either.
shareThere is something very sinister lurking. We are so dependent on our phones and the internet. Our information is readily available to those who want to pay for it. Facial recognition. We are going down a path that is depersonalizing people. It is only going to get worse. Automation is slowly but surely taking humans out of the equation. This isn't hyperbole. It is happening right now.
shareI see a new disaster on the horizon. An EMP bomb that does little or no structural damage but nonetheless causes a physical but, more importantly, also a psychological breakdown by wiping out the communication systems. Along with damn near every electronic circuit within the "blast radius".
Over 70% of Americans affected will be mentally disabled to some degree. Many will be almost completely unable to function, failing even simple tasks. Panic and grief will be very common reactions.
This prediction is probably close to the mark. And you're right, those things happen now, we see it on the news.
But it takes a stable frame of mind to solve difficult problems. Maintaining your calm, and hence (I like that word 😆) your focus is an absolute imperative.
So don't panic! Everything will work out.
Sock it to em’!
shareI don't know where you're going with this but you once called me on a drunk post, so I'm going to call you. Socks that's your post?
shareWhat are you talking about? I don't recall calling you anything. Not saying you are wrong, I just have no idea what you are referring to as I don't think I've ever called anyone a sock.
shareI was talking trash drunk one night and you rightly said...What are you talking about.!. But what is it with the sock post am I missing something deeper here.
shareThere have been posts asking stupid questions and the users only have one post. The tone is the same so I figured that it was the same person with multiple usernames making dumb posts. They are pretty harmless, but it's just weird.
shareNo harm I just remember you saying "what".. again rightly so,
shareI am confused a lot so it doesn't surprise me.
shareForget everything else.. Just explain why you posted whats with the socks.. I just didn't get it.
shareIt's a bad sign. IMDb was systematically destroyed by Sock Puppets, Trolls and Stygiannati Stooges. Here's hoping that Moviechat doesn't go the same way.
Hey learn how to skim it got me through college. Just let you're eyes scan the posts here to find what you like..Let the others just be.
