If Seinfeld were just starting out now and tweeted his "where does the other sock go?" joke - people here would earnestly answer him and explain static cling.
And he'd be like, "It's a joke!" And everyone would be like, "Then why did you ask it in the form of a question? I'm just trying to help!"
And then someone else would be like, "Oh it was a joke? So you DON'T really have a missing sock? So you just made that up to try to relate to us? I saw you do stand-up on Johnny Carson three times last year - no way you do your own laundry you elitist!"
And then someone else would be like, "Must be nice to have a dryer. I hang my clothes to dry outside in the rain."
And then a well meaning person would butt in and be like "It's a joke people!" And then they'd say something sideways that shows they still don't UNDERSTAND the joke even though they got that it WAS a joke.
And then a bunch of people would send him links to these plastic things that you can clip your socks together with in the laundry.
And then someone would be like, “Really? After what happened today (insert horrific thing cuz horrific things happen every day) you’re tweeting about socks? Read the room.”
And then someone with a hammer and sickle in their profile but using their iPhone in the first world would shame him by writing “first world problems”.
And then someone else would write, “I’m a huge fan but this is punching down at the un-socked. You’re better than this.”
And then someone else who isn’t even following him but saw it on a retweet would not read anyone else’s comments and just say, “Check the inside of your pant leg.”
