White socks
Michael Jackson had a particular fondness for white socks, and there were good reasons behind it. He was unique in wearing white socks with black shoes, and this choice served a purpose. The white socks would catch the light, making his footwork stand out and grabbing attention while he danced.
Just like the entire world when it comes to literally any situation at all, you two are absolutely damn sure you know the truth when you actually have no f@#king clue. You weren't there. You know all of jack sh#t.
