    So my girlfriend decided to wash my dirty sump socks today with detergent :-/. Can I give them another wash without any soap and then they'll be ok or do I have to throw them out?

    I would wash them with hot water and a cap a bleach twice then wash with plain water after that. Then I would put her on time out for 20 minutes.

    Now that's some funny stuff! :)

    Yeah. . .wash with bleach only, let air dry, and I'd think you'd be good to go.
