In my 20s I used to think it was awesome to have all the same cheap white tube socks, just a drawer full of them that I didn't have to pair. Then somehow I got interested in merino wool socks and liked them. So eventually (expensive!) I built up a collection of them and most are different which means they all get paired after drying. Now I don't mind pairing them.
Maybe as one gets older they are less likely to mind pairing socks? Maybe as they get wealthier (as employment became much less immediately necessary to my comfort, something "snapped" and now I enjoy working (working hard) on things around the house). Maybe just having more expensive socks means one doesn't mind spending time with them.
