Step 3Stuff clean laundry into a drawer
Here's the real time-saver: Stuff all the clean laundry into a drawer and slam the drawer shut. There's no need to sort! Every dark sock matches with every other dark sock, and every light sock matches with every other light sock. Grab two and you're done. No searching, rummaging, or sorting. Every morning when I grab two socks from the top of the pile, I smile.
To those of you that don't mind wearing mismatched socks (by whatever metric): This technique is still useful to you, because I know you still search through. If there are any outliers you're unwilling to fully mix-and-match, eliminate them!
To those that intentionally wear mismatched socks: This technique is still useful to you, too! The laws of entropy ensure that because you actually want mismatched socks, a randomly selected pair of socks will often match perfectly! Eliminate all matched socks to prevent this.
Every minute saved by not sorting my laundry is another minute I can waste on the internet, or better yet at the beach. Three cheers to productivity and efficiency!
PS - Yes, I am now one of the elite few with pictures of their underwear on the internet.

I think I already answered you point about how much time this actually saves with this:
