    Not sure how you came up with that obvservation, but... That's the weirdest thing you have against those characters? They wear socks? :~

    It's not something against the characters, it just struck me as weird that young men were wearing socks in bed.

      Why, apart from when Penny is painting her toenails, do you never see bare feet? People leap out of bed with socks on. No-one ever seems to be barefoot. Is it part of the room-mate agreement or does the show's producer have a phobia about toes? Have I just missed them?

      I believe Sheldon was barefoot at least once. In the episode where he got a student to pretty much worship him, there was a scene in which she was busy washing his feet or clipping his toenails or something, if I recall correctly. I think it's the same scene in which she quoted Sheldon to convince him not to join his friends for paintball or Halo night or whatever it was.

        The writers do indeed seem to take details like that seriously. It's probably thought out as being part of the nerd thing -- their mothers told them to wear socks, or they'd catch horrible diseases, so they took it as a universal law.

          You are watching the Big bang Theory. So why is this 'sock thing' strange?

            It was Halo night. Paintball night was the scene where he ended up sitting at his laptop with his paintball helmet on having run back into the apartment.

              :D I am just finding it odd that other people find it odd that I find it odd that they wear socks all the time. Which is odd, unlike the socks, which match.

                Funnily enough, in any scene with Penny in, her feet are the last things I'm looking at - and I really don't want to stare at the blokes.

                  Penny is cute but I prefer Amy Farrah Fowler - super-intelligence and a smouldering repressed libido, how can you go wrong?

                            That seems to have been a later joke, I'm sure he didn't do the triple knock from the beginning.
