You are in a dark room...you need to pull out a pair of matching socks. You have 17 blue socks and 17 black socks in the drawer. What is the least amount of socks you need to take out of the drawer to make a match?

Whoever said "3 dumbass" is the dumbass. The minimum you need to pull out is two. If the first one is lets say black and the next one you pull out is black, wouldn't the minimum be two -- But in the dark you wouldn't be able to tell so you would never know.

if you mate your socks in pairs of blue and pairs of black in the light then go in when it is dark all you need to do is pull out 1 pair.

well, seeing as how i pair mine up after i wash them, i would really only have to pull out 1, knowing that the match is attached to the one i pull out of the drawer to begin with!!

If you are in a darkroom, you should not be worrying about your socks and be more worried and involved with developing the pics you just took of Britney Spears. Pay attention to the film of her without panties on. After you sell the pics you can buy all the socks you want.
