Roland gently lowered his left foot into the vat of warm,
oleaginous goop to a depth just above his ankles, feeling it
ooze
between his toes. It felt good.
Then his right foot went into the goop.
Then he withdrew his feet and plunged them into a tub of fine
wool clippings, to the same depth.
Socks
were done!
<addendum>
2 days later...
Roland sat in the HR Manager's office, waiting for her to
return, his mind racing furiously.
What possible, feasible reason could he offer, for having
poured five gallons of DipSox goo over his bald, asshole
supervisor when he emerged from the shower in the office
bathroom, before covering him in lime green woolly fuzz?

Kinda sorta but not really the same idea...? [whatrock, May 04 2021]

So not socks for swimming. |
|
| |
Was gonna also give kudos for the first usage of "oleaginous"
on this site but, sadly, no dice. |
|
| |
Do the fine wool clippings wick the oleaginous-ness of the goop so that Roland isn't just walking in a wool-paste? Or does the oleaginous-ness somehow solidify in such a way that Roland can not remove his socks without solvent? |
|
| |
...I know how much that means to you and how unable you are to not strive for fake internet points. |
|
| |
If he pulls them off when done, it'll be the first time
[UnaBubba] had Socks A-Peel. |
|
| |
Would dope socks be cooler? |
|
| |
this is so weird, have a weird bun + |
|
| |
started thinking...good thing it’s not a *dip jock*
(strap) |
|
| |
The obvious solution, for those asking, is that the goo sets
reasonably quickly, especially once reinforced with wool. |
|
| |
And, being oily, would not break down when damp or wet
but would require a surfactant, to assist with breakdown. |
|
| |
Could Roland lay his Thompson gun aside and apply a
release agent to his feet before dipping? |
|
| |
Seems a good idea to be used in bed with dip sheets |
|
| |
Not advised for people with hairy toes, or ankles, or... |
|
| |
So, not for hobbits, [RayfordSteele]? |
|
| |
Not unless they want to dress up like goblins. |
|
| |
Maybe Roland thinks the boss is a sock puppet, and
decorated him accordingly with an upper body sock.
Then
he can criticize sock puppetry at work to the HR person,
causing a glimmer of plausibility in her mind and a
glimmer
of hope for Ronald. |
|
| |
Also, technologically I think it would work even better if
the
wool clippings container had ultrasonics at it to
hyersuperstir the dip goo into the wool clippings. |
|
| |
This also makes me think of using ultrasonic when
applying a depilatory cream (Nair etc) so it gets driven to
the base of the hair shaft, dissolving the entire hair,
perhaps making it last 2-4 days longer between
applications. |
