Contest Brief

My website is effinsocks.com

The name is inspired by Effin, Ireland (a real place outside of Limerick)

I would like a fictitious and funny company history written for the website, at 200 word or less.

The tone needs to be firmly tongue in cheek/faux-serious, so that no one who reads it thinks we are actually from there. Must be laugh out loud funny.

To get a sense of our tone, check out the website (effinsocks.com), there is a section for Effin Ireland.

Feel free run wild with your own ideas, but I'll start you out with this (no need to use it):

"Inspired by the heritage textile industry of Effin Ireland, effinsocks.com was established in...."

-The whole point is to have something that could go viral.
-The more outrageous the better
-The funnier the better
-Please no corny puns
-No profanity
-Nothing graphically sexual or violent
-Make it provocative but not offensive
-So entertaining I want to send it to my friends.
