Resockling

Verb- the act of replacing unmatched clean socks back in the bottom of the laundry basket in the hopes that they will either a) reunite with their long lost mates off adventuring in different laundry loads with new and interesting clothing, thus creating a wearable pair; b) asexually reproduce with the same outcome or c) spontaneously vaporize out of sheer loneliness or shame.

When my wife threatened to remove my genitalia if I didn't stop leaving my socks in the basket after putting my clothes away, I explained to her I was simply resockling, and she should get with the program.

resockle

To reuse socks that have not been washed

"Dude, weren't you wearing those socks earlier?"

"Oh."

Resockle

To reuse dirty socks.

When I go to the gym I sometimes resockle a pair waiting for the laundry, rather than dirtying a fresh pair.
