Little Match Girls

No, I don't mean this poor dear.

Or view here.
I mean the burning desire to have matching Helical Stripe Socks. Or not.



Rather to my surprise, some who have seen the singleton ascribe all manner of moral virtue and knitterly prowess to matching – or not – and conversely to the converse. Fascinating. I'm generally inclined to be untroubled by diverse taste, but what say you? Should the second sock be:

a. Done.
b. Matching.
c. 42.
d. Don't know.
e. Other, literally and/or figuratively.

Feel free to select all that apply, and to elaborate in the comments.
