Who Puts On Their Shoes And Socks Before Their Pants

Come to find out, Mike O’Brian does it as well when he can! Why, why would someone actually do that? Well, there is a method to the madness here. This all came out while on vacation with her better half. After stepping out of the shower, Angie noticed that Carla already had her sock and shoes on while walking around in just her underwear.

Since Angie had never seen this fashion statement from Carla, Angie inquire as to why! Carla explained that she has always done to avoid getting her shorts or pants wrinkled while bending over to tie her shoes. Makes sense right? Evidently not everyone saw the logic in this.

But Mike agreed as well. In fact, Mike took it a step further with his shirts! Sometimes he puts on his shirt and they will ask his wife to button it as to avoid wrinkles in the sleeves.

Now we know what you’re thinking…how high maintenance are these two? Or as one listener put it, “…who hurt you?”

But see, that’s why they are called “quirks” right? Not saying everyone does it, but the few that do, we have our reasons.

All we ask is that you give us a fair chance, here us out. Listen to the segment first, then judge…and enjoy!

  • Cargo Pants

    Gone are the cargo pants and shorts from the ’90s that might have caused some embarrassment. Instead, the revamped cargo pants of today are sleek, form-fitting, and exude an edgy vibe. Embracing a slim-fit design, these cargo pants can be effortlessly paired with stylish sneakers and graphic tees.
